Visiting Malaysia and Singapore

eat eat and eat?

Penang has great hawker food unique to itself,
Singapore has plenty of shopping..and more food..

 

as per the rest of the year

Hot, humid and alittle wet due to monsoon..but nothing to worry about.

 

Spaing said it!!! Anyways, I'm Malaysian but am in CN at the moment. In Penang, stay at Batu Ferringhi area and Shangri-La's the best bet and the private beach's one of the best. That said, I advise to just stay in the pool. Penang's beach ain't what it used to be....

Not sure about the Durian season, but if you're into Durian, Balik Pulau has got some all-you-can-eat orchards and you can gorge yerselfs silly...

Nasi Kandar is Penang's signature dish. Ask the hotel's where is the best. I usually go to Kassim's. Otherwise, go to Penang Street and a plethora of restaurants awaits!!!

Oyster Omelette is another Penang dish, along with Prawn Mee(noodles) and of course the Char Kuay Tiow. All can be found at the Gurney Drive hawker centre which opens at 1800 onwards. Parking's a pain though......

Other than food, not much to do except sightseeing at the Snake temple, Botanical Park and Penang Hill.

I hope you have an enjoyable time in Penang, Malaysia.

Cheers,

Iskandar.

 

Malaysia is one of the most beautiful countries in the world, i've been twice in Kuala Lumpur. Downtown KL is awesome, haven't been to Penang but if you have a chance be sure to visit KL.

 

I love "Line Clear" nasi kandar.Together with Cendol mix pulut.Can't get in KL,only in Penang!
Perrghhh...Sleepless...hehehe

 

Agreed...Line Clear Nasi Kandar at Penang Street. Opens at night and till the wee hours of the morning. Better than Kassim's...

In KL, go to Naza World showroom in Petaling Jaya. Naza is Malaysia's No.1 exotic car importer. Dunno what's there now..but almost any other exotic from ANY manufacturer will be brought in via Naza..(Enzo and Co...)

Your family can always go to KLCC and it's adjacent park.

 

be sure to go along gurney drive in penang. awesome food, superb atmosphere, and surroundings. u can get things pretty cheaply in penang, nice t-shirts, etc. if ur dropping by kuala lumpur, have a taste ok s really good nightlife, really nice nightspots over here...just make sure ur family members are over 18 yrs old

 

naza's pretty boring for me already...haha

 

Boring?so which importer do you prefer?Ah Kau Used Car?hehehe...

You have to get to KL. There is so much to do there. KL tower, Petronas towers, the cave, the casino, the malls, the restaurants, central market, open market, Sunway Lagoon hotel and mall...

 

Fengtau, all cleared up.....

 

the Durian season


I sure hope there is a good way to clear the smell from my GTR ....haha

 

i go there most of the time. it;s pretty boring alredy, they don;t seem to be bringing in new cars, all just the same most of the time, last year, they were bringing in freakin lots of cars. i remember at 1 particular time there were almost 7 ferraris there..now there's only..2? btws, i heard there's a new showroom downtown pj. somewhere near the rothmans roundabout. heard a bunch of F cars are there...better go have a look

 

So,you have to go there...

 

my cuz went there, i'll be goin pretty soon...right after my finals

 

Dont forget to "pub crawl" in bangsar !! Had a blast after the F1 races in Sepang.

 

DOn't forget China Town too..if you go there,don't simply ask for the goods price...the seller(with brown,yellow sometimes red hair) will 'force' you to buy even you dun wunna it.So,be alert!
