This Young Coconut is unbelieveable sweet and natural..
Today,I decided to make my trip to NYC,Chinatown explorechinatownWell,I woke up quite late,so I hurry take a shower and dress up to begin my trip.I plan to eat my lunch in Malaysia Restaurant as well.I invite Elliot to go with my since he on vacation again but he declined.He dislike hot and humid summer in the city.He rather stay at home enjoying the AC.Mishu refused to stay with him,so I drag her with me as well.
It's a nice and smooth ride to downtown.Luckily I found a meter parking on Mott's Street and Bayard Street.After feeding my parking meter,I go to find the restaurant that I never eat there before.I saw the restaurant hiding in between the big building the last time I was there.The name is New Malaysia Restaurant at Bowery Street and Elizabeth Street.To my surprise,the restaurant menu is quite different from others Malaysia Restaurant that I visited.I chat with a Aunty next table,she told me this Malaysia restaurant is the very first and old Malaysia Restaurant in NYC.I ordered Curry Laksa Noodles with Yeung Tau Fu for myself and Fried Hokkien Mee for Mishu.Sorry,I forget to bring my camera with me .I'm rushing to get out from my house to beat the traffic hour.After we finish our meal,we walk to Canal Street.I want to buy some Asian grocery and perishable.On Canal Street road side,I saw a vendor stall selling young fresh coconut.Customer lining up waiting for their young coconut to be open by chopper.The owner use his skill with both hand and chop open the coconut easily.Then I also request mine to be open and he insert a straw for me.I took a sip before I handle to Mishu.It's very sweet and cooling.The owner ask for $1.50 and I'm gladly hand my money to him..A sweet and nice cooling drink in hot and humid summer .I would recommend anyone who visit Chinatown,NYC should try this young coconut!!..Better than anything else!!

Beachlover, one place I missed most after moving from NY to CA is Chinatown. Have to go there every weekend to 'yam char' with my friends. Maybe we can meet up there when Zue and I go there.
