Penang Trip

1st day
Everyone met up at this mamak at Aman suria for breakfast. Unfortunately, Jackie dint sleep well the night before, so he was a bit late, plus with the bad traffic at LDP both of us dint make it in time for breakfast. We depart around 9.30 am from Aman Suria and reach penang around late noon.

Guess who's car is this? hehe

After settling down in the service apartment *btw, we stayed at GoldenView* it was already 3pm. Gosh, there were no food everywhere and all of us was starving. At last, Roy brought us to this place with the guidance from his friend. Food wise, definitely not that tasty as it was the last option and we don’t have any choice. All of us were dead tired and we just wanted something to eat so that we can head back to the apartment for a rest.

Fried kuey teow

Next, all of us wake up around 6 and get ready for our seafood dinner that night. Thanks to their local friend, we manage to have delicious seafood at this hidden place which I myself dont know where is it. *lol*

Crabs and Mantis prawns

I serious dunno what is this. I think its some kind of snail

Part of our dishes that night. We also had 2 type of crabs, 2 plates of fried rice, 2 plates of mantis prawns, vegetable and etc.

Day 2
The next day, all of us woke up around 9am for breakfast. We had fried kuey teow that morning. Delicious I must say, but it’s kinda pricey. One plate cost rm8 if you want extra prawns.Fried Kuey Teow with extra mantis prawns.

My mum requested nutmeg from penang, so off we go to Him Heang for the ever so popular biscuits. It wasnt easy finding the shop but just when jackie was about to give up, we manage to find the place.

Me on the phone, asking mum which type of nutmeg she wants. Cath and GH is beside me

Alicia, GH and baby choosing what to buy..haha

All of us dint know where to go next, the initial plan was to go to the toy factory but we have to skip that because everyone wore short pants that day. So we drove round and round and at the end we settle in this temple which I find quite interesting.

All the girls * i actually felt very short when I am standing next to Alicia*

The Guys

Tiffany was craving for Assam laksa so off we go to Jalan Penang for our so called late lunch. The shop that Jackie recommended was introduced by HoChiak and there is this Cendol shop outside which is fairly popular as well.

Cendol and Sugar cane juice, just nice for the super hot weather outside

Assam Laksa

As for dinner, Roy brought us to this Thai restaurant at “little Genting”. They were rushing up for sunset, thus I have a very exciting journey up hill. The scenery there was great, better than Look Out point I must say. Food wise, not that bad, at least its edible.

Everyone pointing at Moon because he lost the game..haha but, the ultimate loser that night was james..hehe
