Colourful Pasar Minggu Manir


Pheww..this week is really hectic for me.Juggling between my homework,my usrah,my schoolwork…What a life..Then I remember I didn’t talk about the trip I made to Pasar Minggu Manir. What a colourful experience. Pasar Minggu Manir is where you can shop for all the traditional things from food to vegies, fish and all the household things. But don’t forget about headscarf as well. It is a “syurga tudung”. Actually there many pasar minggu around Kuala Terengganu but I think Pasar Manir is the best. And the reason I love to go there of course the foooooooooooood..



The best thing is I learned the name of the traditional food that can’t be found anywhereelse. From nasi ulam, nasi dagang and kuih kasidah. you name it, you get it

.

That day my parents bought some food for breakfast.Two pieces of laksam only cost us RM2.50 and can you imagine keropok is eeeeeeeeeeeverywhere….My mum also bought a few nisan which is a kind of sugar and very tasty..This kind of sugar is so popular in Terengganu..









Then I saw this old lady selling traditional handicraft. They were so cheap.A straw mat only cause you RM10.00 and a kind of tray which is called ‘badang’ just cause as low as RM 2.50-RM10.00 depends on the sizes. Man oh man! My mum went ballistic and she bought two of those and a strawmat.












We bought some mangoes that cause us RM2.00 per kg so we decided to buy 2kg and some buah salak. That’s end our shopping trip to Pasar Minggu Manir. If you ever in Terengganu and you want to taste the real traditional food I recommend you to come here visit Pasar Minggu Manir. It is not very far from the town centre. Chiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaauuu see you again….
