proust rememberance of things past when he ate a madeleine, but for me it is banana fritters. i dont even have to eat it, but to see it makes me remember. i saw this picture of a pisang goreng vendor by makadto and it brought back floods of memories of times past. the more ripe the banana the better it is in a fritter. it has the consistency of a custard.
Oh this is really a treat to see!!
i am surprised the guy can make a living just selling one thing, and have a shop to do it. only in penang. usually it is just one woman frying these things by the roadside or in a pasar malam.
In Penang it is possible. Also in less develped countries. Not in Singapore or UK as too expensive.
