ONE PHOTO EVERY WEEK 26/52/2025-MILO ON WHEELS

A Taste of Nostalgia on the Streets

Food trucks have become a vibrant part of our city life—especially during festivals or weekend night markets. But even on a regular day, stumbling upon one can feel like a mini celebration. This iconic green Milo truck instantly transports me back to childhood.

There’s something timeless about sipping an ice-cold Milo on a hot day in the city. It’s more than just a drink—it’s comfort, refreshment, and a little spark of joy, all in one cup. Watching people gather around, each waiting for their turn with anticipation, reminds me how simple pleasures still matter.

The streets may have changed, but the taste of Milo remains the same. Always familiar, always welcome.

The Intoxicating Aroma of Freshly Baked Bread There’s something irresistible about the smell of freshly baked bread—especially when it’s slightly burned at the edges. The aroma is intoxicating, almost overwhelming at times, as I find myself lost in the sights and scents of warm loaves, golden pastries, and delicate cakes neatly arranged in a bakery. Growing up in a kampung, bread was a foreign concept to me. In our village, rice was the staple, and we rarely encountered Western-style baked goods. My first memory of eating bread was during small feasts celebrating the birth of a newborn, where we were served sliced white bread dipped in rich, flavorful chicken or lamb curry. That was the extent of my relationship with bread in those early years. It wasn’t until I became a student at Sheffield University in England in the 1970s that I was introduced to a whole new world of baked delights—cakes, pastries, and sandwiches.

Last weekend when I was having a drink with my fellow photograhers community at Makan Buzz, I saw a small kiosk manned by a famous local cartoonist Kulatt.
