Added another UNESCO World Heritage site into my list of travelled places. Georgetown, the historic capital of Penang island, is listed by UNESCO in 2008 for its unique architectural and cultural townscape. The City Hall colony building in white. It was a stormy day with huge waves hitting the wall. Fyi, the devastating Indian Ocean…

Randomly Penang
A not-so-nice panoramic shot of Penang island from Queensbay mall carpark. A dark and gloomy day, but like the misty mountain view. Some random food pics to satisfy your sensual side. Penang Hokkien Mee is something I’d not miss. It’s actually a prawn noodle soup dish serves with egg, prawn and pork slices. One bowl…
Ramly Burger
You heard of fish burger, double cheeseburger, ham burger, chicken burger…how about Ramly burger? Malaysians and most Singaporeans surely heard of it and even tasted it. Fellow Malaysians, if you never heard of Ramly burger before, don’t tell me you are a Malaysian. XD I was in Penang and bought a “Ramly Burger Special” from…
“Excuse me, r u…?”
While waiting for my buddy, I loitered around Bugis Junction (a shopping mall in Singapore) last Friday when I thought I saw a familiar face of a blogger. I knew he works in London and he is back in Malaysia during this period, and he will visit Singapore too. To confirm, I stalked behind him,…
The Largest Aquarium in South East Asia – CTY
Chew Thean Yeang (周天央) or better known as CTY Aquarium is the largest live fish shop in South East Asia. You not only see a great variety of fishes here but also many kind of exotic animals. (Address: 82 Burmah Road, Penang) There are alot of beautiful fishes here but photo-taking is not allowed. Yet,…
Bad weather in Penang
Floods and landslides hit Penang on our second-day stay over the Hari Raya week. The downpour was the “echo” from the tropical storm in Vietnam. The sun was hidden behind the thick rainclouds. The sky was gloomy and it rained cats and dogs whole day. It was a bad time for travellers like us. Boring…
The Good Thing About Blogging!
One good thing about blogging is we get to know friends from all over the world. Yesterday, I received this lovely parcel that had flown a long way by FIRST CLASS from Honolulu to Singapore! The sender is none other than our favourite blogger – Bridge! We love visiting her blog; it’s just so original…
Kimberley Street Hawker Food
Kimberley street has lot of good food! However, just like many famous stalls in Malaysia, those hawkers only start business at night. So, forget about dieting in Penang. It’s supper time! It was drizzling, but that did not deter our eating mood to try out those authentic Penang hawker food. The popular stall selling Duck…
Penang Botanic Gardens
Time for a walk at Penang Botanical Gardens to burn off some calories after gobbling all the lip-smacking Penang food. The open hours are from 5am to 9pm. Waking up that early for exercise is definitely not my style. Spotted George at the park. He seemed curious, as usual. Warning: Adult Content. Er hem… Let’s…
Penang food court at Bukit Jambul
This is my 200th post since I started blogging Travelerfolio in April 08! Most of my older posts contain scenic photos and I didn’t expect that my 200th post is all about FOOD!! XD Penang has many good hawker food too, just like Ipoh food paradise. It’s really a torture for me to blog about…
