#2月好地方2025 Penang is a city famous for its snacks and delicacies. For daytime dining, the best place to go is the Seven Street Market. For dinner and supper, the best place to go is Presgrave Street Hawker Centre in Three Street. It’s a small night market that opens at 5pm. It sells everything from rice noodles, Hokkien noodles, oyster omelette, and ice cream. That place is full of locals, outsiders and foreigners! When it comes to Penang Hokkien Mee, the earliest famous one is Penang’s “Three Roads 888 Hokkien Mee”. Only locals know 'Three Roads'. Its real name is Lebuh Presgrave. There are more and more customers and the restaurant is often full. Because in addition to Hokkien noodles, other dishes such as oyster omelette, wonton noodles, satay, ice kacang, lor bak, etc. are also very popular! Satay x15 skewers (RM15) - charcoal grilled, tasty and yummy. Available in chicken, pork and lamb. Oyster omelette - this is incredible. The eggs were fried until crispy and golden, and I thought they were burnt, but they weren't! It was fried just right, and they didn’t skimp on the oysters! Thumbs up

#travelchecklist #100waysoftravel Penang, often hailed as the culinary capital of Malaysia, is a paradise for food lovers. The island’s rich cultural tapestry is reflected in its diverse and irresistible cuisine. Here’s a guide to the must-eat foods that define Penang’s gastronomic landscape: 1. Penang Laksa This iconic dish is a must-try for anyone visiting Penang. Unlike the coconut milk-based laksa found in other parts of Southeast Asia, Penang Laksa is famous for its tangy, tamarind-infused broth, making it refreshingly tart. The soup is loaded with fresh fish, noodles, pineapple, mint, and cucumber, creating a complex blend of flavors that burst with every bite. 2. Char Kuey Teow Char Kuey Teow is perhaps one of the most beloved street food dishes in Penang. This stir-fried noodle dish is cooked over high heat with soy sauce, fresh prawns, cockles, sliced Chinese sausage, bean sprouts, and egg. A good Char Kuey Teow has a slightly charred aroma from the high heat of wok cooking, known as 'wok hei', which is essential to this dish’s distinctive taste. 3. Cendol To beat the tropical heat, indulge in a bowl of Cendol. This popular dessert features shaved ice topped with green rice flour jelly, palm sugar syrup, and coconut milk. It’s often served with red beans or sweet corn. The combination of creamy, sweet, and chewy textures makes Cendol a refreshing treat at any time of the day. 4. Yam Rice with Braised Pork For those who prefer savory comfort food, the yam rice with braised pork is a standout. The rice is cooked with cubes of yam, lending a subtle sweetness that complements the savory and richly flavored braised pork. This dish is typically served with a side of salted vegetables and a spicy chili sauce. 5. Satay No visit to Penang would be complete without trying Satay. These grilled skewers of marinated meat, be it chicken, beef, or lamb, are served with a delectable peanut sauce. Every bite offers a smoky flavor enhanced by the dip, making satay a favorite among locals and tourists alike. Exploring Penang’s culinary offerings is like taking a journey through the heritage and traditions of its Chinese, Malay, and Indian communities. Each dish tells a story of migration, adaptation, and fusion, making dining in Penang an essential part of experiencing its culture. #PenangFood #MalaysianCuisine #PenangLaksa #CharKueyTeow #Cendol #YamRice #Satay #FoodieParadise #GastronomicAdventure

✈️Go to Kuala Lumpur first and then transfer directly to Penang to avoid any hassle. As soon as I got off the plane, I ran to go through customs. There were a lot of people and it was slow (it seems that you can go through customs by yourself now). 📍Arrived in Penang at 11:30, and followed the instructions to take a grab taxi to the hotel in half an hour. 🏨Sunway Hotel in George Town has a good location. You can walk to Hokkien Mee 888 and eat durian. It is very close to the tourist attractions by taxi. But I don’t recommend it very much. It’s acceptable if it’s old, but the problem is there are a lot of ants! ! ! ! Super invincible! ! !

I went to Penang Hill but failed due to fog, but I did see some strange-looking 🐒; because it was too hot at noon, I would get up early every day, take a lunch break at noon, and then set out again in the evening; the food in Penang is not very suitable for my appetite, but I still had some delicious food 😋Penang is not big, and you can visit all the attractions, but it is very hot. 【interactive】 Have you ever been to Penang?
