This visit to China Street Fritters was prompted in part by a publication which has recently written about their permanent closure - about their intention to quietly close their stall without drawing attention. Said publication had previously also talked about their decision to close shop after their ill fated attempt at selling their business for a million dollars and how that decision was reversed.
From what we read into the situation, I don't think there was ever a want to quietly close shop since every time they had talked about retirement, buzz was generated and crowds formed at their stall. If they had truly wanted to "quietly close their stall", they wouldn't have agreed to the interviews with the mentioned publication in the first place with the full understanding that this would go anyway but quietly.
It smelled like a last ditch effort to see if there might be still potential buyers to their business when they have finally decided to "close the stall for good". If I were YouTubing, I would at this point kinda conclude with "...but what do you think? Tell me in the comments below and if you like what I do, remember to subscribe by hitting the bell..." 😂
But since I'm not......it's mostly the fragrant and crisp egg slices we got this time which is our favourite item from their offerings with the liver rolls next in line. There's a century egg and a tau kwa on that plate too but they aren't special. I'll miss those former two if they eventually close.
