Today I'm proud to report 80% completion of the delicacies. The ghee biscuits and balls were in the 'easy to make' category hence we finished them off within half a day.
A little burned at the base but I strongly feel the crusty part makes it taste a whole lot better. On the contrary to the soft succulent ghee biscuits, Grandpa bought the tooth crunching 'Ketti Urundai'. Not advisable to those with brittle teeth. It's such a turnoff there is a 'We hate Ketti Urundai' page on facebook!
Later in the evening, I joined uncle and his family for a stopover at Brickfields. Being the last Saturday night before the celebrations, the place was jam packed. Parking was all haphazard as shoppers felt they had the right to do as they wished. Crazy ...
With Jalan Tengku Kelana in Klang, this is the main hot spot for KL folks. Strategically located at the heart of the city public transportation hub, it's a people magnet. The government has been investing heavily in making this a great tourist destination and there has been mixed reactions to that.
Besides the festive add-on's, life in Brickfields is just as it is with the garland booths continuing to attract regular goers. This particular stretch was away from the Deepavali hussle and bussle. A serene certainty sweeps as you walk by them.
Didn't want to miss the chance but then again, the prices here were far higher then all the other places I visited in the last couple of days. Choices were abundance but we've got enough for this year ... ;-)
Sight seeing became the order of the night.
