BEN Day 2 │ Market Hunt

An Early Start

Happy National Recovery Plan (NRP) Phase 4, Kuala Lumpur!

The next morning, we woke up early and left the hotel at 7:15am. Our destination was the morning market along Jalan Chui Yin, but before diving into the bustle, we decided to try the famous Hooi Kee Wan Ton Noodles at Yuan Kie Kopitiam nearby.

A simple, satisfying breakfast — the perfect start to a market hunt.

Browsing the Morning Market

With breakfast out of the way, we took our time browsing the stalls at the morning market. The atmosphere was lively, the vendors cheerful, and the variety of produce impressive as always.

We ended up with several bagfuls of goodies, including:

• 1 kilogram of fresh ginger
• 1 bag of tau pok (tofu puffs)
• 1 bottle of tauchu paste
• 1 bottle of ginger wine
• 1 string of petai
• 1 bunch of serai (lemongrass)
• An assortment of gao teng kueh (steamed kuih lapis / soft rice flour pudding)

A simple but satisfying haul — exactly what we came for.

Farewell, Bentong

And with that, our short sojourn in Bentong came to an end. It was a meaningful return after so long, filled with family, food, familiar streets, and the comfort of old routines.

Till we meet again, Bentong.
