Back to Memory Lane, Lebuh Carnarvon, Penang

Jo was brought up here in this coffee shop, Sai Lam in her first 7 years before moving to Petaling Jaya in 1970.
We visited Sai Lam and had our breakfast there on the first day of CNY,

we ordered a plate of Char Koay Teow from this old man with apron. This is his business cart and a bowl of Koay Teow Th’ng. Both dishes were delicious. We packed Wan Tan Mee for the boys here (just opposite Sai Lam).
