Unlike the city, Sekinchan is a small town and you don't find shopping malls within the vicinity. Hence, an interesting place where we can 'shop' for snacks was House of Ah Ma (阿嫲的家). Even though it is a small provision shop, there are a lot to offer once you step in.
A section of the wooden house is decorated with old wooden vintage furniture. The old appliances and household items brought us back to our childhood days back in the 70s. Our children have not seen most of the items and this is definitely an eye opener.
It is also a perfect spot to take photos against a vintage backdrop.
A nostalgic and old school shop where we found old-time snacks, tidbits and sweets - some that we seen before and some that were new to us.
All items are neatly displayed
Assorted colourful sweets in plastic bottles and tin cans.
Assorted local produce
Apart from local produce, we were delighted to spot that they also sell Kuih Kapit (love letters)! 2 ladies were making some during our visit and it has been a long time since we saw the round iron moulds! Egg batter will be poured onto the mould and placed over the charcoal. This is how traditional love letters are made and how we used to make them when we were younger.
I did not realised that Housse of Ah Ma is actually a bakery too!
House of Ah Ma is a mini tourist spot in Sekinchan. Quiet and down to earth, you can spend about 20-30 minutes here to take some photos and check out the items in the shop.
