Penang Oh Penang

Hey guys, i actually wanted to share with u my trip to Penang. actually i went to Penang last 2 weeks which was on the 9th of April till the 11th. so sorry for the really late update. Me & my friends actually went to Penang after the long wait for not going for a vacation in a whole lot BUNCH of us. honestly, i have never actually went to Penang with friends & most of the time i go there with family. so before we actually shoot off to Penang i was determined to guide the others as to where the locations for the famous NASI KANDAR, KUEY TEOW, MEE GORENG & SOTONG BAKAR. but GUESS WHAT i sucked at directions & we were lost when we arrived to Penang. we had to rely on the GPS to look for the places to go to.

First stop when we arrived to Penang was Nasi Kandar Line Clear. this was actually my first time eating there. if i were to go to Penang i will specifically eat nasi kandar at just one particular restaurant which is in Union Street (but we never made it there to eat our entire journey in Penang). OKAY!! Back to Line Clear. we actually went around more than 10 times to look for the place. We managed to find it after 45 minutes. i have to say the food was awesome. i have never
tasted a better "Nasi Kandar" than this. i was SOOO HAPPY i actually ignored everyone around me & just started eating. i give it a 9/10.

our next stop was the hotel we checked-in to. it was Tanjung Bungah Hotel. i have to say Tanjung Bungah is quite strategic as it is in between the Ferringhi Night Market & also Gurney Drive. so during the evening we kind of went to the Beach to enjoy the view & the hot sun. later on at around 7pm we drove to Ferringhi to EAT & SHOP. i didn't really buy much stuffs there but i did get a ZIPPO lighter that is exactly the shape of a CIGARETTE. later on at about 9pm we went to Gurney Drive to continue our eating spree. we were looking forward for the famous kuey teow but sadly it was closed at that time so we ate Sotong Bakar & 'Mata Kucing' with Jelly. i must say it is really DELICIOUS.

the next day which is on Saturday we had breakfast in the hotel & we headed out to town for a really late lunch after spending time at the beach after breakfast. we were actually looking for the famous 'mee goreng'. it was in Bangkok Lane. they really do have delicious 'mee goreng'. im the kind of person who actually does not eat mee goreng much but if it's Bangkok Lane mee goreng, i'm all for it. Hehe. later in the evening we spent most of our time at the beach SWIMMING.. at about 8pm we headed to town again & had Nasi Kandar AGAIN but but.. SOMEWHERE else. we had nasi kandar at Nasi Kandar Beratur. i have to say BINGO!! another great awesome place to eat nasi kandar. the food is delicious & based on the restaurant's name, there were actually soo many people queuing up to get Nasi Kandar. there must be a reason why they call it Nasi Kandar Beratur. later at night we went to Hard Rock Cafe but sad to say it was packed with people & we could not get a table to sit & enjoy the LIVE BAND. oh well, it's SATURDAY NITE!! what do u expect?! so we went back to town again & we hit a club called MOIS.

the next day we woke up really really late & i almost missed breakfast. thank god i was just on time say about 10 minutes before the cafe's closed. so after we checked-out from the hotel we went & bought a few things to bring back to KL for our families & friends. i really do MISS penang a lot. till then, will update & share more interesting places soon. Thanx for reading!!!! :)
