Foods from Bazaar Ramadan & student canteen

During the last Ramadan, I went on with bazaar spree!
Visited the Sri Serdang bazaar after work to get myself some otak-otak.
RM1 per piece. Taste OK-lah, at least I had something that i seldom eat.
Not to miss....murtabak!
[Below] The murtabak is sold at RM5 per piece.
Unfortunately it doesn't have much fillings😏
On another day, my mum bought another murtabak from an established stall in Sri Petaling bazaar.
It was priced at RM6 per piece, and the quality is much better than the crappy murtabak sold at Sri Serdang. Generous minced beef filling and better packaging too!
It has a box (like a personal pan pizza sort of packaging) with the brand name, FB and Instagram account. We only had this once.
Not enuff with murtabaks (from various bazaar stalls), I went to the UPM student canteen to try out their version. This murtabak is the cheapest of all, at RM4 per piece....unfortunately, it sucks! The curry tastes weird and bitter too...yucks!
Luckily i have a backup...I still have this Maggi Goreng (RM5) to fill-up my hungry stomach...
*secretly hoping there is a gold chain inside.
Too bad, there is no gold chain, so i try my luck on another day...
This time i bought Mee Goreng Mamak (RM5). Taste just as good, but still no gold chain😉
The student canteen has a nasi campur stall with Malay dishes.
I tried their rendang chicken (RM4.50)
And also deep fried catfish 'ikan keli' (RM4.50)
Both were good. The deep fried catfish is crunchy and flavorful.
LOL, the student canteen food is cheap and affordable! I shall go there more often if i know about this earlier.
Meanwhile, the below is Chicken Rice from the bazaar in Sri Petaling. It came with cucumber, tomatoes and lettuce (was taken out earlier to put into the fridge). RM6 per box. Tastewise not bad....we bought this a few times.
We also had our final round of murtabak (this time bought from Sungai Besi bazaar).
Had them with rice.

This handsome male cat is the new kid on the block. Not sure who dumped him at my office block, but he adapted well and looks healthy. The next door office staffs feed him well too.

Ah ok, so means later your office will get lots of cute kittens from the female cats that looks like this cat and you can bring one home to care for.

I must have missed something regarding finding a gold chain (?). Ah, that cat is very nice looking.
