Leisure day in Penang

My friends and I decided to go on a 'Jalan-jalan cari makan' trip to Penang. We had fixed a day which was suitable for most of us. Hence we were there last weekend.

We tried most of the delicious food but these two were a little different to me..
chee cheong fun with shrimp paste

curry noodles with pork blood

We stayed a night at the Gurney Hotel

From the hotel room, we could witness the perfect view of Penang.

The Paragon Mall is just a short distance away..

So we walked along the Gurney Drive..

.. to have our dinner at Sukhkotai

I love this green curry the most!

This is also to mark my 5th anniversary of blogging.
Thank you to all my dearest readers for your fullest support.

Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
