Katong bakery and confectionery
image taken from www.can.com.sg
I came across this old bakery shop after watching this food program on the television. It is an old bakery shop opened since 1920s till 2003. It was sad that it is closed down cause of poor building structure. Their cakes and sittings are so traditional, it seems like i am back to the past where people use to sit on this marble-like table and few wooden chairs.
This historical building actually accompany with us for up to 80 years, from a small little island where there are so many undeveloped places and people are living in kampong to this current city.
However, living in this city for long, i urged to go back to the past to experience the times whereby coolies are working near the clake quay area, samsui women with the red hat walking around, old 'mini-marts' where ppl uses pail to put in their money and pull it down like a pulley and those road stalls on the street.
The century that i do not even exist. The era where wartime fashion actually exist. All these are not to be found anymore.
