WHERE TO FIND GOOD FOOD IN PENANG

If you are born in Penang and have tasted the food on your first bite, you will never forget the rest of the bite plus taste for the rest of your life. Just imagine, a 4 year old kid can still remember the black hay koh chee cheong fun where most KLnites said 'Yiak'. The 'sea ham' tastes good to Penangites but to KL friends, they felt scared to look at its flesh.

While holidaying in Penang, we will hunt for these famous hawkers' food. If you have more.... do share ok.
