Homemade Bubur Chacha with Banana! Best dessert ever!! How come KL-ites don't have this? Someone gotta put this on their dessert menu! 5/5!!!!
Some local delicacies, springy and tangy texture on the outside, crunchy on the inside. Fresh ingredients makes all the difference 3.5/5
The Famous Duck Mee stall.
Duck Drumstick Meat Noodle. The herbal soup is very very nice. Matches well with the duck meat. Tender and tasty. 4/5

Steamed Ikan Pari @ Stingray with Salted Vege broth. Incredibly fresh and tasty. Best seafood dish of the nite. *yummy* 5/5!!!!
Sweet & Sour Crab, taste OK, Cheese Crab in KL taste way better, but do check out the spiky thingy behind there. Some kinda clams. You have to prick out the meat using a toothpick from the shells. 3.5/5
Kam Heong crab, again, KL's crab dishes is better. Tak cukup heong~

The chili peanut sauce to go with the steamed octopus.

Indian Char Mee with Squid. Different but Deli~~ 4/5
Group pix!
This is just half of what we ate cos some of it, we forgot to take pics cos we are too busy eating! When the food is served, it takes a lot of self control to stop yourself from diggin in while waiting for them to whip out their camera and taking pixs. LOL.
Total casualty, around RM 150 for foods alone + 4hours bus ride one way and those time spending around the car driving from one destination to another was all worth it. I can't wait to go back there soon.
Penang is definitely a foodie heaven, cheap and tasty but if you don't like strong flavors food, I don't think you'll appreciate it. LOL.

Yummy! That pork satay looks really good. I never see pork satay here--generally chicken, and sometimes beef, but never pork.
ww_adh: Wow! There's satay there? Here I thought Malaysian food ain't that worldwide. Lol. Satay usually is made with chicken, beef, and mutton here. Pork satay is kinda rare here too, only places like Penang which is heavily populated by Chinese have it. Since pork is non-halal. U should really tried it if you have a chance, Pork satay can stand on its own without the complimentary peanut sauce.
Ahh. Pork Satay. It's like our Barbecue here in the PH less the Peanut sauce which is YUM. I ate at a Singaporean restaurant before and I ordered Chicken Satay with Peanut sauce. De-lish.
Almost all the dishes posted are quite delightful except the creepy octopus. Haha. :D
Ooh, looks like you had a very satisfying trip. :)
Anyway, welcome back and happy holidays! :)
Ken: Chicken is flavorless I think, that's why when you cook chicken you need to put lots of flavors to it. Pork itself is a bit salty, that's why I think Pork satay win this competition by a mile! You should really try it if you have a chance :D
Mandy: Hello, Mandy~ Thank you! :D BTW Nicole won! Yay~
LOL. Good for her! :) I was happy for her but aww for Laura.
Mandy: I doubt anyone cares about both of them after few months. LOL.
