The Weekend of Gluttony – Penang

June 3rd, 2009 by [re-arrange] Leave a reply »

It’s been a while since I write real blog entry, so this might sound a little bit… weird? Hopefully not tongue

*deep breathe…*

So last weekend I went to Penang for my friend’s wedding. Congratulations to Syuk and Mar for their absolutely gorgeous and fantastic wedding ceremony (siap ada DJ okeh! big grin dengan lagu2 jiwang permintaan Kasab… tahniah! anda memang romantik!) tongue

Our trip consists of two separate journey. The Spammers (Yong, Yoda, Iyayy, and Lan) started their journey a little bit late, while I join the #gurly group consists of Sue, Seren, and Munir. Eh? Munir?

(P/s: Welcome to the bimbo world of #gurly, Munir. LOL tongue)

My personal mission was to satisfy my gluttony with all kind of foods available only in Penang. Had it 90% fulfilled. Side quest: To eat nasi kandar – failed due to the lack of capacity in my stomach. Damn I used to be able to eat VERY heartily! *sigh*

Day #1:

The trip started on Saturday afternoon, and we arrive at the hotel on the late evening. After resting a while, we started on our first mission of gluttony: Fort Weld (or is it Padang Kota?)

Checklist of stuffs succesfully consume:

  • Pasembor Penang
  • Laksa Penang
  • Sotong Dua Rasa (which is actually a dried squid and a rojak squid. Damn Scam!)

After that meal, we go to Batu Feringhi where Sue decided to go for a little shopping. Being men, me and Munir go to the nearest restaurant (Restoran Lebanon, or in Arabic – “Mat’amul Lubnanwinking. No, seriously, there are Arabic calligraphies in that restaurant. Reminds me back to the high school time when I got a chance to learn Arabic tongue

We go for a little smoke and shisha. While we were there, the second trip (the Spammers) just arrived and they went straight to Gurney. And we continue our chilling. We are so full at that time that we decided not to go for Nasi Kandar for supper after that. *sigh* (now I’m regretting it).

End of day #1. Gluttony mission: 70% success!

Some pitcah!

laksa

Laksa Penang, before being eaten. Seriously, the taste is different when its being eaten at Penang. Or is it just me? Delusion?

pasembor

Pasembor Penang. Believe me, this was halfway of our eating. It started really, really.. in BIG quantity.

Day #2:

Day #2 started with… some hair cutting session? Oh yep, I got my hair cut a little shorter. big grin

beforeThis was before. And yeah yeah, I read a CLEO magazine. Big deal. (There was an article about.. Importance of touching each other? LOL. Relevant to my interests! tongue)

afterThis is the after. The end result that gratifies me. big grin (But… the blow effect sustain only for… 3 hours? *sigh*)

Then it comes to the feast itself. Nasi Arab as an alternative for the ordinary Nasi Minyak seems cool. I like that. Eat, chat, laugh. Good food, good company, good jokes.

After the feast (kenduri), we went back to UTP for Sue to retrace and reminisce back her lost university moment. Some moment of camwhoring by them, and off we go for another last gluttony session!

NASIK GORENG KAMBEN AT FAROUK AND SITHICK MAMAK STALL!

That completes our gluttony session to 90%! (10% is lost due to the lack of Nasi Kandar. *sigh*). WIN!

P/s: Oh sorry guys, I don’t have pictures of eating there. I think Sue might have it. And yeah, I’ve skipped quite a lot. You might want to consider reading Sue’s, Munir’s and Yoda’s for more details. I just want to cover about the food and my gluttony. HAHAHA tongue
