The last day we gonna spend in Penang, and everyone is so damn tired and not willing to wake up from the bed. This morning start with dim sum in Tho Yuen Restaurant. I found that Penang people taste is a bit lighter compared to KL. Many food I ate is quite nice, just it will be perfect if it is more salty. Penang dim sum not much special, somehow I prefer KL style.
the porridge taste lighter, I prefer a salty one
the glutinous rice don't really taste good
the other pork rib is ordered by Cindy
actually I don't used to order pork rib when I go eat dim sum
my friends say the shao mai is tasty but I don't think so
maybe this is not the best that I had before
prawn wrapped with beancurd slice had with mayonnaise capture my appettide
this kuih lobak too soft and not well-fried till fragant
the fried taro just taste great!
the outer bread part not enough soft
so so lo~
this taste not bad but not my favourite
the egg tart here mixed with some coconut sugar taste
I don't really get used with the taste....not really like it~
Thought wanna take bus went to Ghee Hiang at Lebuh Pantai, but we get our tau sa pheah in Chowrasta Market, gao dim! That night we came chowrasta and feeling sweat for its doesn't seem like a market, but now I know the market referring here is actually a morning market =.= Even shocked is I met my student here! met in Penang here so far from KL! LOL~ but student seem like a bit shy...haha~
There's a lane here full with all fashion wholesale shop....but many of it reject retailing. I can only look at the nice clothes from window but can't get it=( End up from tiring market walk, we sat down beside the road and waiting time to pass. At 12 noon, we move on to get a bowl of famous teochew chendol.
After this, we have nothing to do actually. Chuan Heng suggested that we take a bus ride around the town and enjoyed the air-cond. However, I and Hui Nin suddenly wanna go back Hai Onn and eat the chicken chop which didn't get a chance yesterday. So, we separated.
Even it's raining quite heavily, but me and Hui Nin holding the umbrella and walking very certainly toward the shop. Finally, we get to taste the fast-selling chicken chop and roti babi. At here, I feel that tasty food need to pay a price, not the money price but time price. When we came here, there's not much customer, but we still need to wait for more than half hour. The waitress keep serving the chicken chop on unoccupied tables and covered it, just like someone has pre-ordered these.
I bet you can't find this in any other place else, only available in Penang
I was discussing with Hui Nin how worth we have eaten this two special dishes
As the staffs working there all is aged people, I guess same goes to the cook,
so if you don't grab the chance and ate this, later in the future maybe the
cook will be retired or worst, pass away XD
The chicken chop is different as I thought as it's not deep fried but cooked with some sauce
I think if the suace can be salty a bit then it will be perfect
RM3.50 per plate
Roti Babi is bread with pork, onion and egg inside
the outside bread is also soaked with egg and fried well
RM3 per plate
During the intense sunlight day, having a free shuttle bus ride goes around
Georgetown probably is a good thing...Air conditioner~
This is what other doing while we enjoying our chicken chop
They even bought some beer from the Happy Mart and have a drink in the
hotel lobby while waiting for me and Hui Nin to come meet them
Time left not much, we went back the hotel to meet other and move on to jetty. Too bad, time drag here and there, in the traffic and bus, we were late to the jetty and ferry left. We have waited for more than 15 minutes for the ferry and it took another 15 minutes to reach Butterworth, it's 3.30pm!!! Luckily, our hero Mr Edward run toward the bus terminal once the ferry reached and catch the bus. We were being scold by the bus driver as being late...haiz~ Now I knew Penang bus is much more on time than KL bus, incomparable! Anyway, we also get into the bus, it's just very lucky! Otherwise, maybe we will need to buy another bus ticket or even spend another night in Penang.
I am too tired, exhausted....fall asleep in the bus. Time fly very fast, we reached Pudu and our Penang trip end here. Bye to my fellow friends, meet again. Bye to Penang, I will be back! The end~
After 4 days, we are exhausted!
Sleep is the first mission to be accomplished!!!
