PETALING JAYA: In an inspiring rags to riches story, a Malaysian-born street vendor who once lived a life of poverty is now set to open a 15,000 sq ft restaurant in Twitter’s headquarters at San Francisco’s Bay Area.

The fifth-generation street vendor of ‘mamak’ descent Azalina Eusope was once pushing a humble street cart selling desserts in Penang, until she met her American husband and moved to San Francisco where she is now running a successful business.
