BDQ, my niece, came to take me and my daughter to go and eat this “RM8.00 Penang char kway teow” in some lane here but it was the beginning of the Hungry Ghost Festival and the shop was closed. They had set up some altars and stages all over the town…and there were a whole lot of burning of joss sticks and Hell money here, there and everywhere. In the end, she brought us to this relatively new place in Georgetown – the New World Park…
I heard that it’s owned by Robert Kok, one of the most loaded in the country. We went there for lunch and it was quite crowded…
This is a stall selling pies…
…but the truth is I wanted to take the photo of this curry mee stall…
…because among the options, you can choose to add some “cocker”! LOL!!! I had this plate of char hor fun…
…which was really delicious for RM5.00 only (egg added). My niece had their Penang char kway teow…
…while my daughter had the chicken chop with garlic gravy (RM7.50)…
…but she felt she could get something like that, or perhaps even better and more substantial, in Sungai Petani for only RM3.50. I also had this for dessert – black glutinous rice (pulut hitam) with santan/coconut milk…for only RM2.00 – it was really heavenly…
…and we also had this steamed or-koi (yam cake) with a sprinkling of fried dried prawns/shrimps (looked more like bubuk to me) and hay-kor (prawn paste)
…which tasted absolutely great and was really worth having!
After lunch, my niece sent us to Queensbay Mall for a bit of shopping…but that would have to wait till another post!
Have a great week ahead, everyone!
...STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
