There are some try-hards who were born and grew up in South-East Asia and then went overseas for a few years, comment about how dirty it is to eat at the food stalls in their country of origin. They grew up feeding in those places and yet, try to act like royalty after they’ve been away overseas. Acting like they’re not used to such places. Try-hards. Yeah, go colour your hair blonde, you wanna-be.
bracing the height to get this shot
always about 2 feet away from the railing though. the closest i can get.

wonton mee – the cut green chilli is a must with it.
