Penang2018!!!



This time around we chosed to discover things in Penang. Just a short 3days 2 nights adventure as i hardly ever visited Penang despite of its reputation as a famous foodie location and nice tourist attraction that is pocket friendly. So then we picked 30th November till 2nd December for our short getaway.

Frankly speaking, i think we need 4 to 5 days to discover all, maybe next time as this time around we stayed in Georgetown and covered most of the Northern part of the Island only. I've booked to stay in Northam All Suites Penang, for its location and room price, and it turned out to be really nice. We had a room with a view and a jacuzzi, which everybody loves. Next time maybe we'll stay by the beach.

Well, just to share the pictures there as our family momento and maybe if you would like to have some ideas of what to do in Penang when u visit next time, lets see what we've being up to in Penang! A nice stay to forget a lil of all the hustling and bustling in the city (read office) and a good way to end 2018! all maybe are not in order of our activities but i'll summarize all in the end, inshallah.


1. Rumah P.Ramlee Georgetown

2. Makan makan spots 1 - Line Clear Nasi Kandar

3. RNR stops to refresh!

We had few stops all the way to Penang. One for breakfast and another was for bathroom and smoking (daddy's stop). It was just a fun drive trip, so we were not really chasing time to arrive.



RNR stop!

4. Makan makan spot 2 : Mi Udang Sg Dua

Sg Dua is actually on the peninsular side of Penang. The mee udang was marvellous! Fresh freshwater prawns cooked with a little bit sweet and tangy gravy.sedappp!
