Butterworth Lorong Kulit / Taman Selat Day Market

Location : Taman Selat is located, as you head North along Butterworth Main Road, it on the Left before the Town Padang (Field), the market is near Public Bank, CIMB Bank etc, turn in as soon as you see CIMB Bank, there is a big car park which charge RM2 per entry which make it convenient to Park The Taman Selat Day Market, is Butterworth answer to Penang Island Lorong Kulit, Smaller but without the Fruits Stalls and Plants Stall, and with much more of a Malay Flavour. As such those looking for Malay products should come here. And come early, They also close after lunch.

This Day Market is unlike the one at Lorong Kulit. It is located along the five foot way of a row of shops. What do we have here, basically what you will get at Lorong Kulit, cloths, leather goods, perfume, vcds, kris etc. Located here is a pretty good electronic toy shop.

By the way, are these instrument legelly able to be sold in Malaysia? I have notice these in Malay Pasar Malam especially in the Northern States.

Pasar Ramadhan

During the Month of Ramadhan, you will find Street Food popping up on streets and roads all over Malaysia, selling traditionally Malay delicacy from 5pm onwards. In urban areas Non traditionally malay delicacy have started to creep in to the Menu.

Stall Selling Ikan Bakar

(Grilled Fish in Banana Leaf with a spicy Sambal sauce)

.

.

Once the stalls have started operating, the horde of customers will descend and most of the Items will be sold out before the breaking of the fast time, (between 7pm to 7.30pm in malaysia)

.

The horde of Customers!In General, Muslims will purchase the delicacy to take home, especially food difficult to prepare in small quantity, to be eaten with other home cook food. For the City Folks who do not have the time to prepare their own home cook food. they can buy all they need here to break their fast.

Now adays, the non muslim will also descend on to the Pasar Ramadhan to purchase the traditional malay dishes to have with their dinner.

Stall selling Nasi Ayam

In general the price are very reasonable, in fact much cheaper then the usual stalls or restaurants, this lead to more customers dropping by.

.

More Ikan Bakar

.

Satay

.

The Pasar Ramadhan where I stay at the country side feature traditional Malay delicacy only. This year the mood seem to be dampen. This may be due to the recent sprat of price increase to the basic food stuffs. In particular, there was only one stall selling ayam percik, and one stall selling fried chicken.

.

.

At a Pasar Ramadhan, you will usually find stalls selling Malaysian Style Burgers, Murtabak, Ayam Percik, Fried Chicken along with Fish Balls etc, Rice Stalls selling currys, Chicken Rice or rather Nasi Ayam, Malay Kuih, Noodles in a Spice Herbal Soup (Soto) Ikan Bakar, etc

.

.

If you are a tourist do try out the food and wounder around the Street Pasar to get a feel of the Fasting Month. For us malaysians, this is a month of Happy Eating.
