For the first time in a while Noi and I managed to get out for afternoon tea. She took a break from making her curry puffs and I managed to pull myself away from pressing workaday concerns, which, for once, were not pressing enough to pin me down. Actually this tea only involved tea as I forewent munching on a curry puff outside given that the curry puffs at home were several times more delicious.
But I was delighted to find we went to exactly the right place for a splendidly hot and genuinely large teh tarik gajah. We found this at the hawker centre on West Coast Road, I think it's called Ayer Rajah Hawker Centre. The stall at which the wonderful drink was available was number 67 - that of Abdul Aziz. I'm not sure if I've referenced this stall before in my Mr Teh Tarik saga (not having posted since back in very early 2022 when we were out and about at Geylang Serai) but it doesn't matter if it's a repeat since the teh in question is worth the repeated emphasis involved.
By the by, when we went out it felt like a surpassingly hot afternoon. We could barely sit in the overheated seats of the car when initially setting forth. There was a surprisingly large crowd at the centre, given it was a weekday afternoon. I suppose folks were sort of enjoying the relaxing quality of the heat. It was heartening to think that people were able to find time to warmly chill in this most busy of cities.
