Today, I went to shop in the local market with Alice and it was pretty interesting to see the wet market of Dalian. Unlike those in Singapore, they do not have a proper building for it and people merely just set up temporary stalls. The variety of Vegetables and types of goods sold here are relatively lesser that what we have in Singapore. Along the same street you’ll get to see similar stalls selling the exact same things. Sometimes I really wonder how those people survive and how tough is life for them.
After buying groceries, I also had the famous 手抓饼which is really similar to Roti prata. It means hand catch/knead but the person making it used a flattening tool to flatten the dough onto the pan instead. So… is it still considered handmade? Hahs… anyways, it tasted really nice and had the feeling of home. There are even different flavors of the prata, such as floss, vegetables etc etc. pretty much like Singapore.
