Penang - 1day trip 1.0

This is rather the first 1day trip experience that I had, and it's fall on this unfamiliar but yet famous island.

Penang, short for png, but when I type I write pg, is famous for food! like.. du-uh... And on this very exciting day, I woke up 0530 to catch a bus at 0630. Yes, indeed it is 6.30am! I decided to take townbus to parit buntar to meet with my ex-bf ex-roomate, but this tough jurney has just began!

Due to the timing of express buses, I decided to take townbus instead. So at 0630, I took a bus to kamunting, then change bus and redirect to parit buntar. Feel free to guess how long it took me to reach parit buntar. hehehe..

*This is my proof k.. XD

And so, I meet up jeff (ex-roomate!) and he suppose to take me to breakfast, but both famous "prawn noodle 虾面" and "mee hun gui 面粉糕" around mainland is not ready to serve because it's too early. T.T

Last choice, we head toward the famous "chai gui 菜糕".

This shop is located at a place where it's call jawi, and the name of the shop is called "jawi chai gui". <-- actually it's not, jeff from pg don't know the name of the shop and there isn't any shop name at that shop, so he make up this name.

When the guy serve, jeff keep taking the vegetable "chai gui 菜糕" and we end up got 5 plates of it. But the rest is just 1:1.

Pang guang chai gui 菜糕
* I don't know how to write pang guang in chinese word =p *

Jiu chai chai gui 九菜菜糕
For people who don't take much vegetable, please don't try this at home for the vegetable taste is superb!

And the rest I don't know their name, just see picture la k.. =)
This is really real crab meat serve together with it shell.

Nothing special, it's just deep fried "shui jiao 水饺".

This is fish inside the wraping, and with all the spices they use, this is much better than otak-otak in Malacca.

"tong hun 东粉"


Again, the name of this dish is unknown but it's really taste nice especially when serve with vinegar.

This very trip is quite tiring and exciting, not many places was covered but I can say it's perfect for one day trip. I shall keep the rest of the picture for next run.
