Penang Road Famous Teochew Chendul
2007-05-24 06:18:00
Cendul has been a favourite dessert for all Malaysians with, or without a sweet tooth. Strips of green pandan noodles made from rice flour mixed together with red beans, coconut milk, and shaved ice, all topped with gula melaka (black sugar syrup) -- a heavenly sight for all those who crave for something sweet and chilling, after a hot day under the sun.Cendul stalls can be found literally anywhere! From food courts to roadsides to even Pasar Malam, all you have to do is walk to your nearest Medan Selera and there you have it, freshly prepared cendul. But the best Cendul in Malaysia got to be Pena ng Road 's famous Teochew cendul.The fame of Teochew cendul wasn't built in a day. The founder of the dessert was the late Tan Teik Fuang, who created the unique cendul flavor 5 decades ago, that is 1945. The stalls are run by his three sons, Tan Chong Khoay, Tan Chong Seng, and Tan Chong Kim.If you are luckily enough to be able to tryout Penang's famous cendul stall, don't be alarmed by...

Abdullah : I was naughty once
2007-05-21 07:45:00
I came across this cute news from The Star. Our prime minister, Datuk Seri Abdul lah Ahmad Badawi visited the Permata National Childcare Centre in Kepala Batas yesterday. He made this confession to drive home the point that naughty children will grow up to be useful citizens if they are loved and cared for in their childhood. He even confessed that he was a naughty child when he was a kid.Let us correct them with love and care and not by yelling at them,? he advised parents when opening the Permata National Childcare Centre at Taman Seri Menerong here yesterday. He also said that parents should set a good example at home. Young children are usually a little adventurous and mischevious -- but it's a crucial part for them, especially when they are still undergoing the growth process. It is during that period where they start to develop their character and learn and absorb things fast, that's why parents shouldn't quarrel and yell at their children for no serious reasons as it will o...
