The ultimate comfort food: Perth's best Char Kway Teow
North Perth We can't get enough of the food from this hole-in-the-wall eatery on Angove street. The char kway teow (or as they call it, the C.K.T) is a delicious mess of smoky noodles, bean sprouts and pork sausage. Thornlie Located inside the famous foodie destination of Spencer Village, it's got some tough competition for your tastebuds. But with its delicious smoky flavours, there is a good reason this should be on the menu for any Spencer Village visit. Northbridge The Penang-style char kway teow is a signature dish at this Malaysian eatery, and when they say it is their most popular fired dish — we believe them. Choose between chicken, beef, seafood, or vegetarian, but just make sure you add it to your order. Willetton West Leedy's loss is Willetton's gain as this popular Singaporean and Malaysian eatery has picked up sticks and decamped to the southern suburbs. The char kway teow with tiger prawns, fish cake slices and Chinese sausage remains on the menu along with all the other favs at this restaurant with a cult following. Morley If I was a deep undercover international spy and needed a discrete meeting place where no one would think to look, Mamak House would be top of the list. What I'm saying is, it's not the most likely location for a rendezvous, or a topnotch Malaysian restaurant for that matter. Luckily, those who know , know that this is a top spot for very very good food including a char kway teow to knock your socks off.

Possible accidental gun discharge investigated after man is killed in Massachusetts home
A Massachusetts man was charged after another man was found shot to death at a home in Northbridge late Wednesday night and police are investigating it as a possible accidental gun discharge. Worcester County District Attorney Joseph Early said police were called to a home on Legion Way shortly after 11 p.m. Wednesday. At the home, a 36-year-old man was found dead with a single gunshot wound. His name has not been released. Man arrested at Northbridge home "We didn't see or hear the gunshot but afterwards, we had quite a few...I guess there was a state and a town police car here," said neighbor Phil Greiner. "The younger of their two boys came out and I guess they took him into custody but I don't know that for sure." Christopher Lacour, 33, was arrested at the home and charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. He was arraigned Thursday in Uxbridge District Court and released on $10,000 bail. Police said he had a license to carry the gun, which has now been suspended. Gun safety reminder from DA Police said Lacour and the victim knew each other and were related but didn't say how. They added the shooting was an "isolated incident" and the public is not at risk. They said this is a lesson in gun safety. "Never underestimate the discussion you have to have with regards to gun safety," said Early. "I am comfortable saying that right now, not too much more really we can say, we've got to say in the courtroom." An autopsy is pending with the results expected to be released Friday. Police said the charges against Lacour could be upgraded once the autopsy's results are released. He is due bac in court on June 23. A man at the home where this happened told WBZ-TV he can't say anything before asking the news crew to leave.
