Penang, Penang, Penang =)

went to penang for 4 days starting from march 1 to 4th of march. wow, penang still gives me a lot of surprise even though i've went there a few times.. my cousin is going to Frankfurt, Germany for his internship after this for a whole 6 months... before that, i've promised him to go to pay him a visit before he leave.. so after dilly-dally-ing for a few times, i finally decided to go penang this sem break, ... and i did! i ask my sister to go with me too, but my grandmother wanted to follow along since she had wanted to look at her grandson before my cousin leaving malaysia~ at first, i decided to go by bus, but my mom says that since my grandma is going and avoiding that long journey to penang, mom says that she will pay for our flight fees =).. hehe~  and 3 of us got a chance to fly^^

The air boarding pass~

and blah blah blah.. we finaly reach Penang (skip the crap) =D

ok, i will not introduce much about the heritage of penang (erm, maybe a little of it to scrap off your bored) but more to the food part =) (yes, i know it's more interesting) 

note: the sequence does not mean the rating of the food~

Penang famous cendol - the icy cool dessert freshen you up in a hot weather and keeps ur body cool.

penang laksa - the unique taste of this food can only be found in penang and is one of the most famous food there.

Penang cha kuey teow - actually this food can be found in many places but i did not know why it could be famous only in penang. i didn't think that this food is way tastier than other places cha kuey teow like the exaggerate-rs said.

food court beside gurney drive- a famous hawker center in penang.

and specially for T-bowl session... i've wanted to go to this restaurant since the first time my friend told me. and finally i've got a chance to go there with two of my best friends which are having their teacher's training in  penang.. i'm so glad to meet them there and we had a great time together.. 

what is T-bowl har? 

 

 yup, this restaurant is a theme restaurant with the theme of a toilet bowl (that's why it's called T-bowl)^^ it uses all the bathroom tools and basins as bowls and plates for the food.. funny rite? or you think it's disgusting? here is it...

the chairs and tables made from toilet bowls and basins~

and that's all for T-bowl~ 

wait, i wasn't finish at all~ 

Lollipot buffet~ no photos were taken~ (due to laziness, and it wasn't anything worth to introduce)

last day breakfast: 碳烧面包 with half boil eggs and classic kopi-o~ wow, the bread was awesome!!! so good, so crunchy, so soft, so healthy and smells good!! (but i forgot to take a photo of it). if so happen i go to penang again, i will go again~
**Li Ying brought us there**
and she too brought us to a cake shop to have some cheese cake but i found something more interesting there!!!
TaaDaa...!!!

does this cake give u the urge to keep it forever? and not wanting to eat ruin any part of it?  nice cake for your love ones..
It was so nice that i cant control my hand to bring out my camera and take a picture of it!!!
and now, i'll show u more SEDUCTIVE ones =) ^^ haha~

i din cheat u right? it was terrific right? i cant imagine a small cake shop can have such skillful cake-maker~ haha~

now we'll be going to the place we have visited~ 

this is a new hotel + shopping complex at the ground floor... i dono wat's the name already.. but it's quite easy to find it because the whole building is painted almost completely white.. 

I just love the environment there^^ although it was hot, but the beauty of the building and the scenery makes u wanted to stay a bit longer there =p

and this was the proud part - the ONLY heritage we went in penang - the mansion of Cheong Fatt Tze~

too bad pictures are not allowed inside the mansion and we spent RM48(each person RM12) to visit the mansion~ and have another 1 hour long "lecture" inside there~ anyway, i'm not really interested in histories of bla bla bla~ so i just accompany the others~ ^^

and the happiest and most interesting part of penang(which i love the most) :

The Toy Museum of Penang!!!
