    Tasty Thursday.  Every Thursday.  
    July 14 - September 1, 2011
    Tasty Food 11:00 am - 2:00 pm
    Tasty Concerts Noon - 2:00 pm

    Met with hundreds of my fellow T.O Tourists, White Collars(majority).
    Queues are random but we were very civilized, friendly, patient.
    Mostly familiar Foods and the occasional unfamiliar.

    Malaysian ~ Pondicherry Caterers
    Mexican ~ Mis Amigos Festival Catering
    Caribbean ~ The Real Jerk
    American ~ Woody's Burgers
    Peruvian ~ La Cocina de Dona Luz
    Indian ~ Kathmandu Restaurant
    Thai ~ Na Siam Thai,  Coco Rice Thai

    The most unusual to myself was Pondicherry's Martabak(http://en.wikipedia.or...).
    It provides the most STREET Food visual sensation compared to other vendors.
    Observe the Cook prepare the Dough, add Fillings, fried on both sides.

    Chicken Martabak($7.00)  -  Crepe(external)/Samosa(internal) Hybrid?

    Thin thin Dough wraps Peas, Potatoes, Beans, Chicken.
    Seared in Ghee until Filling is cooked and exterior Dough is crispy.

    Dip in your choice of sauces(2); Tomato Chutney, Coconut Chutney

    Thirsty?  Water Water Water

    FILL-UP and GO mobile Tap Water is available for sips and Bottle refills.
    Bring your own re-usable Water Bottle!
    Vendors might have limited selection of Soda for sale.

    Fixes please:

    More seats for Concert enjoyment.  Food(tables) enjoyment too.
    Food Menu disappears in the sea of peeps.  Place it above the crowd.
    What happens on Rainy Thursdays in this outdoor event?

    For your information, not all Foods are good as Street Food.
    Some are best cooked to order or served in a Restaurant setting.
    i.e. overcooked/over-Citrus'd Ceviche Mixto($5.00)

    Just wanted to put it into persepective, 7 bucks for a martabak is on the expensive side, but until there is more selection in terms of malay/indonesian street food this is the only place you can get them other than making them at home.

    Also wanted to add, I wish that they offered martabak manis in addition to their martabak telur.
