PENANG trip =)

Penang trip was fun! It was my first time there and I was excited.

"First time there? Shame on you!" was what Sue May said in her email and I nodded in agreement.

I always hear stories bout how good the laksa, assam laksa, prawn mee etc tasted there. Are they that good?? I would be expecting day and night eating those kind of food throughout my journey there and guess what? I HAVE NOT tasted any of these yet! Weird huh, I know.

And we were there to eat
  • nasi kandar (which was expensive, average RM 8 each, someone paid hers for RM 15)
  • dim sum (which was nice and cheap, some plates only cost 90 cents each?)
  • Penang Road Famous Teochew Cendol (Cendol Klang better!)
  • seafood ON THE BEACH (cool!)
  • char kuey teow at the hawker stalls (ours costs RM 5.80 each plate, with added prawn mantis, sotongs etc)
  • durians (not for me)
  • special edition of Roti Canai with whole-leg chicken in the gravy
Stayed at Krystal Suite in Bayan Lepas, spent alot of time travelling from one end to the other in Penang Island. Also visited the Queensbay Mall (the longest mall in Penang with coming up biggest skating rink in Malaysia!). Jusco is one of the tenants of this mall and they have like 5-stories of shops? And the DVDs sold in Batu Feringgi, Penang costs only RM 4 each (here, I heard each around RM 7-8?) !!!

Took heaps of pics, let them do the talking yea?

After lunch, we splitted. Uncle David's family and my family adjourned for Ipoh on the way back. And the restaurant that we got into was packed and it was 3pm.
