Day 2 - A Whole New Experience

After The Spice Garden we went for lunch. We wanted to try one of the stalls mentioned by Tini, the Spice Garden saleslady, but we found the place already closed. We then drove on until Teluk Bahang. We stopped at the dam, noted the waterfall near by (lain kali datang nak pegi!), then went back and stopped at this shop selling coffee, tea and chocolates. With growling stomach, we went back to Spice Garden and had lunch by the beach just across the road. Laksa Power namanya. The rest of the girls said very, very nice. I'm not a laksa fan so I ordered Mee Udang instead. Even though not as delicious as Mak Jah's Kuala Sepetang (obviously!), it was still good. We concluded - the food in Penang was simply outstanding, even a dish not "tasty" by Penang standards was so good people would queue for it in KL!
Kat dam pun nak amik gambar!

After that, we went back to the apartment to leave the car and take the Rapid bus to Georgetown. Penang's public transport was very good. We saw buses every few minutes, Rapid buses and the hop-on-off for tourists. Memandangkan nak drive ke Georgetown pun tak tau nak parking mana, naik bus was the best way.

We stopped at Komtar as that's the only landmark that we know. All our research previously has gone down the drain. We actually didn't know where to go. We walked and walked but the city seemed so alien. At one point we backtracked and finally found the streets we wanted to go. And accidentally we found Nasi Kandar Line Clear! Yeay!
Tengah discuss nak jalan ke mana, Jay sibuk dengan monopod dia.
Berjaya makan kat Nasi Kandar Line Clear. But then kan, if you ask me, nothing special lah. OKlah agak sedap. The gravy was excellent. But the fried chicken, the ones at Hj Tapah near my house is much nicer :)

Lepas tu beli souvenir sikit kat area tu, and then back to the apartment. Sebab nak hit the beach!
Tunggu bas pun nak ambik gambar. Tapi memang impressed. Tunggu 5 minit, bas pun sampai!

To be Continued!
