More Hawkers from yesterday

Posted by noelbynature

After yesterday’s memories of old Singapore hawkers, Chun See from Good Morning Yesterday weighs in with his list of hawkers from yesteryear.


I finally I come to the most amazing of the itinerant hawkers of all – the yong tau hoo seller. He was a young man who stayed not far from our house on a hillside. He did not come around in a vehicle but carried the load on his shoulders like what you see in this photo of a satay seller. Among the many things stuffed into his tiny ‘stall’ were a huge pot of soup, stove (and presumeably, charcoal), ingredients, bowls and utensils.
