Penang Weekend Trip
It was a short visit from my university mates over the weekend. A simple and relax trip. I summarize it into a Penang itinerary 2 days as below:
| Day 1 - Saturday | ||
|---|---|---|
| Morning: | Pick up my friends from Penang International Airport | |
| Breakfast at Joo Leong Cafe | Must try: Nasi Lemak, Toast, Half Boiled Eggs | |
| Noon : | A visit to USM, our university ^^ | |
| Lunch at Penang Road, Joo Hoi Cafe | Must try: Cendol, Char Koay Teow, Laksa | |
| Check in Malabar Inn @ Lebuh Cintra | 2 Family Rooms (8 ppl) for USD 87.44 from Agoda | |
| A quick Georgetown tour | ||
| Tea break @ Selfie Coffee, located at Love Lane | A brand new enjoyment, but not for the taste of coffee >< | |
| Night : | Seafood Dinner @ Tambun | Price was reasonable, taste is ok. Probably we didn't order the right food. |
| Happy Hour @ Talk Talk Bar (X'mas gift exchange session) | Located at Pekaka Square, Sungai Dua | |
| Day 2 - Sunday | ||
|---|---|---|
| Morning: | Breakfast - initial plan was at Toh Soon Cafe but it was closed on that day. So we just had our breakfast at a nearby 'kopitiam' | Kopitiam means traditional coffee shop. "kopi" = coffee, "tiam" =shop |
| Georgetown wall art tour cum Occupy Beach Street | Occupy Beach Street: Weekend Market that temporarily close streets to automobile traffic for activities at part of Beach Street (Lebuh Pantai) | |
| Noon : | Lunch @ Qing Tian (Sky Hotel) | Must eat: Char siew, chicken rice |
| Check in Vistana Hotel - rest and relax at the hotel | Only 2 friends staying for another night, so they booked a hotel nearer to the airport. | |
| Evening: | Early dinner @ "Green Island Western Food", Bayan Baru | Reasonable priced western food. Taste is ok too. |
| After dinner coffee @ "Love A Loaf", Bayan Baru | Their breads are worth to try. | |
| Night : | Supper @ Subaidah, Sungai Dua | Must eat: Nasi Lemak My other favourites : Capati, "Air Limau" (lime drink) |
Before sending them off the next morning, we had ‘Pan Mee” breakfast at Hou Mei Yuen, Bukit Jambul.
