Day started with getting some breakfast. Went o the famous Chulia Street Curry Mee. Ingredients include cuttlefish, tau pok and pig blood (optional). Only Yasin took the pig blood version. Kudos.
Decently priced at RM3.50 per bowl.

Following that, time to get some popular Ghee Hiang tau sar piah. Unfortunately they ran out of stock. So we got some from their sister branch.

No trip to Penang would be complete without a visit to the Burmese and Thai Buddhist Temple.

Thai Buddhist Temple where the huge Leaning Kwan Yin statue can be seen (shown below).

Pictures outside Thai temple.

Next, went to KOMTAR. It is part office buiding part shopping mall..After~45 mins, left for next destination.

We went off to see the clock tower followed by the jetty. Spent around 15 mins walking around.
Left the monkey to explore the area for ~1hour while the rest of us when for more FOOD!

Upon arrival, we waited ~10 mins to find a table. And it would have been another 35mins before we got our food.

Definitely worth the wait for those heavenly succulent char siew. I think the secret is using exactly the right part of the pig. The fatty portion did the trick.

No prizes for guessing that the queue was LONG...............

For 2nd round of lunch, we drove to Carnavon St to get a taste of some omelette oysters and kuay tiow th'ng

Our last stop before heading to airport was a stroll in Gurney Plaza...typical shopping mall...lots of shops...

Our flight from Penang to Singapore was scheduled at 5.10pm. Delayed to 5.30pm. Everyone rated the trip at least 4 of 5 stars. Fulfilled what we set out to accomplish, food and sightseeing. Recalling the amount of eateries and heritage places we mange to visit, this type of itinerary is only meant for young energetic chaps (like us).
