2008 - Family trip of the year - Penang 2 (Part 1)

Alright, father got a phone call to Penang to attend a personal meet-ups together along with mom. And so, PENANG 2 (REVISITED!!!) is up for plans...

We've booked a 5 bedded room at the YMCA Penang, Jalan Macalister, Penang. It came to our surprised that the room was really comfy with all the basic needs. Come on, our ultimate goal is to WHACK the whole Penang... YEAH!!!

We pushed off by 7am Saturday from Kuala Lumpur (KL) to Ipoh at about 2.5 hours drive and we were looking for the famous "Beef Noodle" restaurant, sadly to say, we were late... and it's only 9.30am and they say finished . COME ON!!! (actually the Q long la... lazy to wait)

So, brother has another suggestion which was pre-recommended by his friend, and we head off to...

1) Kedai Kopi Kong Heng

and we had...


a) Popiah & Lobak - The PoPiah was awesome however the Lobak to me was only so-so


b) Kai See Hor Fun - So, the Ipoh Kuey Teow with shredded chicken delicacy... This is really not bad and it's really worth the try. Although it may seems oily in the beginning, but when you do your very first slurrpppp... WAHHHHH.... heaven.


c) Ipoh White Coffee - We KL-ians are very used to instant stuff and by saying that we too have also drank from the ready packed commercialised white coffee ... So now, we're in Ipoh, and oh boy you've got to try this, because by the end of your drink, you'll realised that there are no coffee bids at the bottom. Amazingly smooth!!!
