That's the only street food I have been addicted to over 60 years ! Nothing is better than holding a bag of steamy hot chestnuts to take home to enjoy in a cold Winter !
Thanks for bring out the story of the little guys. I like your attitude of total engagement just as the couple who do the nuts and yam. I wish all of us learn to respect people's job instead of social status. I bet the lawyers may not be as honest, happy and contented as the nut couple.
Absolutely my favorite snacks during the colder months … buying them once a week … mostly in Tsuen Wan .. tasting pretty good .. At times I bought them in Prince Edward area … didn’t taste so good … I suspected them mix and match with boiled ones .. Can someone please tell me when exactly Mr. Wong goes to Chi Lok and where exactly? Looking at how busy he gets .. he probably has one of the best roasted chestnuts stands if not the best … Hawker stands were everywhere back in the days .. but pretty much entirely wiped out in recent years .. benefiting no one but real estate tycoons and shop owners .. Keep up the good work .. nothing but respect to you Mr. Wong
