Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

Ohh a lot lol. My ex used to watch those that sell clothes to both gauge the industry(she's in fashion) and also buy something that she likes, and some of them do have pretty nice stuff. My cousin used to work on these that sell random household item and the sales is actually better than just listing it.

Personally not watching these but I think people just like to be "sold", like instead of reading the label about how good it is, someone is actually there to show you how good it is, and you can interact with them by asking question and get answer right away. Can't do it will store listing.

I watched it once with my sibling's SO. I think it was during MCO. Quite fun la, but not something I will repeat. My mum did watch a lot of those during MCO and ordered her fishes from those sellers.

It was super popular during MCO. Everyone got time and some of these sellera are really good at interacting with audience.

My wife and a few friends regularly watched a fish seller in klang. Indian guy, spoke absolutely perfect bahasa pasar chinese. Someone commented on his chatbox asking what god he prays to (that's just colloquial chinese for what religion are you). He said aiya indian god la. I thought that was so unnecessary and amusing.

Fish?! How does one even...?

Their own fleet of refrigerated trucks deliver them in styrofoam boxes. Which is why you saw so many people throwing out styrofoam boxes. Fish, meats, etc.
