Penang has a 'very' famous apong selling at Jalan Burmah just beside Union Primary school. and you can place order through phone 016-4093701 or drive through...
but sorry.. no delivery service..
The first time i passed by here was last year when i was hunting for some food for my tea break at 5pm and it caught my attention with the crowd.
Then I was being informed that i need to wait very long...
I was a bit stunned. The uncle can make 8 pieces at one time..
so how long could it be?
With small apetite i have,
i said ok i can wait patiently.. I just need 3.
but then soon i learnt the 'longness' when the next customer came to order..
the car along the curb were the customer waiting in line for their order...
and each of them were ordering like 20,50,10,60 pcs and so...
so imagine i was waiting the uncle to make more than 150 of apong then only it will reach for my turn.. which is only 3 i needed..
so that's long, very long...
and i was hungry...
interesting enuff is...
there is another apom stall just few steps down the road...
and it was sorta crowded with cars in front of the stall..
but those were not his customers.. :-)
since i was hungry..
i decided not to wait and to have the apong from the next door..
so..yesterday i got the chance to revisit Ah Guan's Apong..
inside the apong, uncle guan will put 2 small slices of banana and small portion of corn..
mmm.. so how i felt about the apong?
I am not fancy about this apong.
in fact this is the 2nd time i have it..
i would said.. it smell good..
taste smooth in the mouth
the banana taste is strong as compare with the corn..
it is very soft..
my fren who like apong said it tasted different compare to normal one.
BTW, a side note, ... ApOng got a 'funny' meaning in penang... :-)
just like 'kuih' it can mean something different while you talk in Hokkien in Penang...
