3. Roasted Meats n Greens .. #penang, #roastpork, #meats

Nowadays you see pictures of food on blogs and normally, it is plated nicely and in fancy little café or bistros (most cannot tell one from the other) ... but hey there was a time (that still exists) that the most beautiful of meats can be had in the Asian wet markets and here it is ... (another 2004 photo flash back) ...

There are 2 shops (back to back) selling the exact same food in the entire Pulau Tikus, Penang, Malaysia wet market ... and if you are ever there especially on a Sunday, you need to go try. How it works is straight forward. You can buy any of the meats for a fixed sum say RM10 ... or you can go by weight like 300gm etc ... got it?

Amongst some of the food included duck, goose and pork. None hanging will include char siew and lorbak. What makes this good is that the skin is always crunchy and the meat is marinated well with enough spices and salt. So good you can get them to chop up some and you eat it there and then when it is still warm. O yes you can also choose the cut of meat you want

And in case you are worried about all that cholesterol, well, here are some veg on sale next to the meat stands. Of course most here requires some cooking!

Happy Eating, all!
