Genting > Ipoh > Penang

Went to Genting on 30th of April (Yes, it’s the day I resit PM) after having supper at Pudu hokkien mee stall. =) Reached Genting around 11.30pm. Not knowing where to go, my sisters and I plan to have some coffee at Starbucks. Hehe. Chit chat there until 2.30am then headed back to hotel and have our beauty sleep. LOL. Stil need to wake up early the next day to Penang laaaa.. zzzz

At 7.30 am, we start our journey to Penang using the Batang Kali route. That road from Genting to Batang Kali is DAMN NARROW weh. As usual, we headed to Ipoh to have breakfast before going Penang. There are more cars on North South Highway that day compared to other days. Hmm, possibly it’s because of Labours’ Day so everyone took the chance to BALIK KAMPUNG.

We finally reached Ipoh after a long crawl from Slim River to Ipoh. =.= Not able to have our meal at the shop we normally go as it was too packed with people. Sigh. So we headed off to Nam Chau Coffeshop. I think it’s fated that we can’t eat curry mee on that day coz Nam Chau is not open. T.T Finally we eat Hor Fun at Thean Chun, also had chee cheong fun and pork satay there. YAY!!!

Arrived at Jawi then checked into the golf resort. This is the second time we did not choose to stay on the Penang island (The room rate there is EXPENSIVE). But I personally prefer staying on the island because I love to see Penang’s city and beach, and it’s more convenient to go to the hawker stalls. Can’t say anything because I didn’t pay anything for this trip. Hehe

After few hours rest, we then left Jawi to Penang Island for some hawker food. Ate ice kacang and rojak at Swatow Lane only. T.T Daddy said we have to attend his friend's friend's buffet and BBQ party at night so we can only have light meal. Had an hour rest after returning from Penang Island then hopped off to his friend's friend's place near Sg Acheh.

I think that was their first time trying BBQ steamboat

Their buffet is different from what we normally have at birthday party. Their buffet is all Penang food – assam laksa, seafood, rojak, nyonya kueh, etc. I guess I will grow fatter again after this meal. T.T

At uncle's friend's place

Mommy brought us to Penang on the next day because Seberang Perai is too SIEN. Had Char Kuey Teow at Lorong Selamat this time instead of Macalister Road Sisters CKT. This Char Kuey Teow cost us a bomb. WOW, RM6.50 for merely a small plate. But the taste is SO SO only. This aunty doesn't do TAKE AWAY service too. Soooo BIGHEADED la... It's ok, I ordered another plate, took plastic from aunty and pack it ourselves. I don't think I will come to this stall anymore.
