When it’s been over 20 years since you leave high school, you tend not to keep in touch with most of your mates way back then. That’s true for me at least. Gratefully, the few that I do keep in close contact with keep in touch with the rest of them and keep me updated on the comings and goings of these men and women I used to run around the playground with.
I was still pleasantly surprised when I heard that one of the boys from my class went around the world, got married and came back and is now the proprioter of the Railway Cottage Café at the Bormill area along Keretapi.
We had our reunion at Chiang’s joint this month. We had a buffet style layout, specially for the group, so Chiang does do catering for home parties if that’s your preference. My personal favourite was the black pepper chicken, although I must say the vermicelli is not too bad either. But that’s just the special menu Chiang put out for us. On any one day, Chiang reckons his best sellers are the mixed grill, heng hua pak mee and a few others.
What really caught my eye was Chiang’s collection of collectible figurines. Zowee! I’m not a serious collector myself but I love these things. His Bruce Lee series is completely swoon-worthy. He’s got Jackie Chan, Pirates of the Caribbean and more. Every Sunday afternoon, a gaggle of collectors congregate at Railway and talk shop. So if you wanna get into this as hobby, this is the place to start your obsession.The Cafe's promotions, front window (it's halal, so no pork or alchohol) and part of the spread Chaing put out for us:
