The ever famous Penang Char Koay Teow, makes me salivate every time I see or smell it! I am not a picky eater but I am real fussy about my plate of char koay teow. I remember during my school days in Convent Green Lane, there was this school canteen hawker who serves a to-die-for wet char koay teow. Hungry like a cow after school, I always must have a plate at least 3 times a week. Sometimes, I cannot wait so long and just had to have a dose of it during recess time when the canteen is usually ever so crowded. I always thought lining up for my plate of koay teow was a game of ‘squeeze-in-queue’ and have to say it’s the survival of the most determined.I must say until to date, I am yet to savour a plate of the authentic “Convent Green Lane Canteen Char Koay Teow” as how I remembered.
