Penang Trip Cont.

Continue from where i stop..

The accommodation that we stayed was terrible!! It was a shop lot-turn-into-motel kind of place. For uncle to go 开房 place like that.. the environment was not comfortable for sleeping. Most importantly we did not feel safe sleeping over there especially for the girls cause the security was not tight. I was thinking don’t know how many couple had sex on that bed when i look at those beds. Perhaps a gang bang as the room was large and easily fit at least 4 people.. worst part was there was an electricity breakdown on our second night and we immediately moved out despite it was already late night. Stayed at friend’s home and the next day check-in at a family suite of a 3-star hotel, large enough to fit us 10 people and best of all it came with air condition!! Penang’s weather was so hot at that time..

Didn’t go many must-visit places, i would say. Most of the time taken up to travel up and down from Butterworth to the island. Might as well we stayed at the island, right? Weird arrangement by my friend, kan?

I enjoyed the most was the watersports at Batu Ferringhi. First time played parasailing and got to see the beach from a top.

Food wise, didn’t eat much also. Initially i thought i’ll be eating char kuey teow for straight 4 days but mana tahu, only ate once at New World Park Hawker Center, some more not nice; port klang’s char kuey teow way better than that! Sisters Char Kuey Teow? Nope! Famous laksa at Kek Lok Si? Nope! Fried Oyster? Nope! (if not consider the one i ate at New World Park) Cendol? Nope! Durian? Nope! When we arrived at Gurney Drive, it was drizzling so end up went to Golden BBQ Steamboat. That’s why i did not get to eat all above food..

Now you may ask me what i eat in Penang then? Haha.. i ate Golden BBQ Steamboat which can be eaten elsewhere.. eaten T-bowl which also can be eaten at KL. You see, we went all the way to Penang but didn’t eat the specialities in Penang. Maybe i shouldn’t tell everyone that i went to Penang lah.. But then luckily bought back some snacks from Ghee Hiang.. at least to prove that i been to Penang lor..

Perhaps i should go back there once more to eat those food that i miss.. maybe end of this year with another bunch of friends.. keeping my fingers cross..
