Ep 1: Up North: Food Hunt


Posted on October 18th, 2009 @ 11:56 am

Dear diary,

During the Raya weekend (extremely outdated), I went to Penang!

I’ve been to Penang a few times in the past, but this’s the first time I’m visiting his home.

5 days 4 nights, i’m glad to have him as my tour guide!

Mainly wanted to try the local delights… but somehow get quite disappointed because the famous food places are always crowded with tourists :(

I guess KL ppl have no where to go during the long weekend, and they decided to visit Penang! okays, i’m one of them.

I remember on Sunday noon, at first we went to the Two Sisters Char Kuey Teow but they said will have to wait for 1 hour. And it’s full house! So we decided to goto the Beef Noodles Place. But it’s not open! Then drive to Air Itam for Assam Laksa. But it took us an hour plus to reach because the traffic is bad! *cranky*

Moved from one place to another, finally get to eat something for lunch and it’s already 3pm.

But think the journey is worth it, this’s still the best Laksa I ever had!

Also had dinner in Gurney Drive that same day… it’s not easy to get a table, and the queue to order food are exceptionally long!

Luckily there’s tim who went around to queue for food! *claps* We ordered a lot, but let me show you the MUST TRY(s).

Fried Chicken Skin! This’s my first time eating something like that.

It’s damm good… but quite unhealthy. Once in a while, should be ok!

Sighs, feel like I miss the food so much while typing this…

Okays let’s get away from food for a while…on Sat night, he brought me to Bt Feringgi and I bought….

Oh, this post is getting kinda long,  I still have a lot to share. Went to Toy Museum & more food places!

Will continue in my next post!
