12:30pm Arrival@Penang
1:09pm Lunch@Sisters,Lorong Selamat
I came to know about this popular char koay teow stall a few years due to recommendations by our friends. Kimmarun boy will not leave Penang without having a plate of this. In fact, this is the first stop everytime we visit Penang. I was there a few times for my crave’s for Penang’s char koay teow. The stall is located at Kafe Heng Huat, at Lorong Selamat. A small coffee shop and a char koay teow stall in front. Beside the coffee shop, there is a small open air car park. It’s hard to miss it. The sisters’ trademark is the goggles. Cooking using traditional method of charcoal, the food tends to be tastier as many believed. The price of a plate of char koay teow starts from RM6 to RM 8.50. The price is comparable to certain food courts of Kuala Lumpur, it is definitely costlier than most places in Malaysia. If the price is not an issue, then the waiting time could be another issue. Usually the waiting time is around half an hour to an hour. It depends on your luck. Weekdays are less congested while weekends will be packed by tourists.

7:00pm Seafood Dinner@Sea Pearl Lagoon Cafe, Tanjong Tokong
The seafood is cooked in very simple method, with their signature dish of coal-baked crabs and salt-baked prawns. This restaurant is situated next to the famous Tua Peh Kong Temple in Tanjung Tokong. It was our first visit there but the hubs has been to this restaurant umpteen times, ever since he was a toddler! This unassuming restaurant looks pretty run down and uninviting but the moment you step down from your car and walk towards it, the aromatic smell of baked crabs and prawns would make anyone salivate. The seafood dishes are all cooked in very simple styles. Their signature dish is coal-baked crabs and salt-baked prawns. I was told that the restaurant owner relies on these two signature dishes to pull in customers, near and far.
Price: Baked Prawn (RM18 half kilo), Deep Fried Calamari (RM12), Stir Fried Lala, Chicken Satay, Coconut Drink, Deep Fried Baby Chicken, Grilled Stingray, Hokkien Char Noodles (RM12), Fried Oysters (RM12), Meat Crab (RM40 per KG)
