The first customer of the day. I imagine those were the equivalent of grabbing a cream cheese bagel on your way to work.

Hi there,

I believe I had had my share of hotcakes from this particular hawker back then.  I recognize his face.  The photo was taken at the junction of Matheson Street and Leighton Road.

BTW, they usually use butter, peanut butter or condensed milk instead of syrup or jam for the toppings.

Best Regards,

T
