With just a short 4-day trip, I tried to make the fullest of it by eating as much as I can (^_^) & meeting up with close friends (Eddy, CK & Kennard).
Buddies are as great as ever. Food, still incomparable.
To make this short & sweet, I'll let the pictures do most of the talking! :D
Went to Presgrave Street for dinner. Famous Hokkien Mee - simply delicious! *slurp*
Wan Tan Mee! Ask us and we will say a world of a difference from those in KL!
Ban's favourite food: Tau Kua (Tofu)
Fried Oyster, my personal favourite in PG.
Lunch @ Chuan Bee, China Street. A place my family always come for dinner more than a decade ago. "It has been more than a decade since I last came," said Dad.
After so long, the dishes are still as good. Just look at juicy & tasty asam prawns!
Fu Yong Egg which is so different from KL. So damn delicious!
Sambal Kangkong; not my favourite but enjoyed the sambal taste.
After dinner with Kennard at Jones Road (sorry, no photos taken!), I went to Bee Hooi @ Pulau Tikus for our very first POHPIAH!!! Just thinking of it makes me...*gulp*
Went for chit-chat, drink & laughter @ Coffee Island, Gurney Drive with Eddy & CK. A good chit-chat place as long as the company is fantastic & they were! :) Thanks to Eddy for those nostalgic goodies which we eat very often as children.
In Penang, Kopi Peng (Coffee Ice) is a must try for coffee lovers! Had my lunch Swee Kong Coffee Shop @ Pulau Tikus (directly opposite Pulau Tikus police station).
One of my favourite Mee Goreng! Can't get them in KL...argh!!!!!
Wan Tan Mee - a little different from the usual with different gravy & lots of ingredients!
A second round of lunch @ Cecil Street Market. Lots of good food there!
Char Koay Teow!!! This is near the carpark which is the end of the market! I'm hungry just by looking at this...*growl*!
Fried pohpiahs! This is rather oily & dry. I miss those which are sold on carts with laksa soup! :(
Dinner @ Chulia Street! This is how we define fine dining; by the streets! ;D
Wan Tan Mee again!!! It's just irresistible in Penang. I love this type of char siew which is hard to find, if any, in KL!
Dry or soup, they are just as good!!!
Curry Mee!!! Another must-have whenever go back to Penang.
This is what I call Sar Hor Fun!!!
Mind for a supper? How about a burger by the roadside @ Hillside, Tanjung Bunga? It's absolutely heavenly!!!
Last meal before leaving Penang @ Kampung Malabar (corner coffee shop off Penang Road). Penang Fried Rice. Sambal. Big & fresh prawns. 'Nuff said!
Ee Fu Mee. It has been some time since I last eaten such classic noodles before this!
For us who came from SXI, don't we just miss our alma mater? *sigh*
I LOVE PENANG!!!
