It's all about Penang.

Heyyo peeps!
If you are having a long journey from Kuala Lumpur to Penang in the morning, you must drop by at Ipoh
and have a breakfast at Foh San Dim Sum Restaurant.
It is a eastern restaurant where you can taste their delicious dim sum in Ipoh and Yeah~ Foh San is quite crowded especially weekend. It is a culture for Chinese to have you breakfast with families and friends and chilling together. I prefer their Yu Mai (Fish Ball) and Lo Mai Gai (Steamed Sticky Rice with Chicken), it is glutinous filled with Chicken.

Besides that, we've ordered Siew Mai, Prawn Dumpling, Sun Flower Seed Siew Mai, Cha Siew Pau & Golden Sand Pau..


This is Fried Carrot Cake! The taste filled with eggs and tasty..


And of course, we need to order a Chinese Tea to serve with all Dim Sum. It is truly eastern breakfast culture.


This is the address for Foh San Dim Sum Restaurant:
51, Jalan Leong Sin Nam, 30300 Ipoh, Perak Darul Ridzuan, Malaysia
Phone Number: +60 5-254 0308
 Business Hour: 6:30 am – 2:30 pm


After we took our breakfast at Ipoh, we continue our journey straight to Penang.
Yeah~ From Ipoh to Penang, we need to use another two and the half hours to reach there.
The first destination we stop is Water Ubah.
Water Ubah (It is a popular mascot for Democratic Action Party -DAP
It is infront of Nautilus Bay Houses and it becomes a popular attraction point for tourists.


We are the tourists and this is normally what tourists did.


After a long journey to Penang and it's time to have a shopping spree and tea time before we prepare to attend Amanda's wedding. ( Please read my previous post..)


Seriously, the cakes served by coffee bean at Gurney Paragon branch is not a standard what it should served. The cake is dry yet not delicious. This is not what I eat in the other Coffee Bean branch. A bit of disappointed.
And served with my Favorite Earl Grey tea..
.

The second day, we also went to a famous attraction place and it called Chew Jetty.
Actually there are few different Sir name Jetty but Chew Jetty is famous hotspot.



The houses in Chew Jetty stilll remain in timber and the whole ambiance is really vintage and heritage.
No matter their houses, bicycles, decoration or peoples.. The feeling for me is like everything become as simple as beautiful. 


When you sitting at here and the scenes + surrounding really made us relax. We hanged over at the area for few minutes to enjoy the view of the village. 












The Ice Kacang Puppy Love filming area..
The colourful wall.



Alright!
After Chew Jetty, What's the next?
Yeah~ We continue to visit all the Street Art nearby Chew Jetty (Pengkalan Weird) and all the street art
is connected and surround the area.
I did capture some of the street art, you spotted it when you visit the street art in Penang?
Check this out!










Sorry, She is not a Street Art. Hahaha! Just a spontaneous candid shot when capturing the wall.
Let's continue!



Yeah! The weather was quite hot and we need a cold drink to cool down!
You may visit  this cafe called 55 Cafe.
55 Lorong StewartGeorgetown, Penang Island 10300Malaysia

Their 3D coffee art is quite famous but we got no chance to taste it!
So we ordered another Chocolate drink.
Well, the service at 55 Cafe need to improve...hmmm...you got it? 
Yeah~ So, we just did a quick tea time and we continue to visit another place. Yay! 




Tadaa! Next, we did pay a visit to this Asia Camera Museum
10 Jalan Burma, Georgetown, 10050 Pulau Pinang, Malaysia


It was quite crowded with packed of many Hong Kong tourists..








You can test to play the features and the effect of the oldish camera.. And this is the outcome..
Hmmm~ okie~~~


They also exhibit some of the old cameras to let you touch and get close with all those historical items.

It is always a popular spot for the tourists.

The largest Guang Ying statue in Penang if not mistaken.
It is at the top of the Kek Lok Si.
The Guang Ying statue looks so peaceful and warm. Good skill!














Before you leave from Kek Lok Si Temple, you may go to try the most spicy laksa nearby the temple.
It is also quite famous as well! You can ask the peoples over there and they are quite friendly and nice !!
