Things to do in Penang

I have taken 2 groups of friends to Penang this year, in Jan and Sep.

Here are a few photos of places we went during the Sep trip.

Kek Lok Si temple with the recently built Goddess of Mercy huge statue at the top of the temple hill side.

We ate the mouth watering peanut pancake and I introduced them to my favourite pancake with corn and egg inside it.

We also ate at a coffee shop located in Pulau Tikus where the nearby market is called the 'Rich Man Market' as there are a lot of private housing estates nearby and the residents comes in their Mercedes.....

My father used to take us to this coffee shop during the weekends as his best friend live opposite this shop. The local food like Chee Cheong Fun, Char Koay Teow, etc are still as good as ever.

We must not forget the lovely Penang Road chendol .....!!!

This Hainanese restaurant offers good food and I have been there 3 times this year and my recent group of friends like it so much that they wanted to return the following day for another meal. Their favourite dishes are Curry Chicken, Inche Kabin Chicken, Spring Roll, Lobak. However, it may be a bit pricey for some of us but the food is worth it.

Of course, they could not go home without buying food stuff like our famous Penang tambun biscuits, salted fish, belachan etc.....

Well, I can go on and on...... So maybe it is time for you to visit Penang soon especially if you have not been there before.

Drop me a note if you need any help from me for your coming visit to Penang.
