Entry: Exclusively Penang Thursday, October 12, 2006



[edited] more photos

I was in Penang last weekend to attend a wedding dinner which was on a Friday. Of course, I stayed over for the weekend to indulge in my annual hawker food eating spree. First stop was the RM5.50 good-but-so-damn-expensive-and-stupid-self-service CHAR KUEY TEOW at Lorong Selamat. Seriously, it was not as nice as what I tasted before. %#$!&%

Up next was the really-cheap-and-mouth-watering RM2.30 ASAM LAKSA near the Kek Lok Si temple. Whoa. That one really champion man. No chunky fish that usually spoils the texture of the soup. Yummy Yummy.

What I had for my dinner is at somewhere I've never been before. I don't think many ppl knew about this place either. I mean, it's like sooo isolated that probably the debatable founder of Penang, Sir Francis Light, knew nothing of this exclusive place. This van driver (hired by the bride) of ours terror lar. I thought he was angry to see us all sleeping at the back and not paying attention that he decided to bring us all for a four-wheel drive (4WD)adventure up uneven, sloppy hills of Balik Pulau with his old but still going strong van, with 11 person in it. After that horrifying (ok..let's not exaggerate so much) 1st-gear-all-the-way-up journey, we reached a place called Bukit Genting or can be known as Genting Hill (not Genting Highlands). And what do ppl come up here for? THAI food!





I must say the food's not bad and price is reasonable.
And I was so wrong to say that not many people knows about this place.
