QUOTE(Ami Tsun @ Sep 7 2010, 11:28 AM) ....You may eat at the Long Beach hawker centre if around there, would recommend the Hainanese styled popiah there. Please go before 6.30pm, if not, you may not get to eat the Hainanese styled popiah. |

Maybe this trip will be around 3 days only. Bro, I'm not sure what you have in mind but I'll try...In my list :- - Hard Rock Hotel situated along the famous beaches of Batu Ferringhi, has excellent facilities for you(internet) and your family - missus and kid. And from there it is a short distance to your 'Tempat-Tempat Menarik Untuk Dilawati' 2. Hutan Lipur Teluk Bahang/ Butterfly& Insect Farm 3. Tropical Fruits Farms 7. Taman Negara Pulau Pinang At nite you can stroll along the numerous street stalls Checkout their website. 'Tempat-Tempat Makan Yang Sedap' list looks good except Tari cafe. Not so good any more. For more additions to your list check out the places in green on this thread >> http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1550843 especially the Nasi Kandar If you like beef you can plan for a dinner at Hameediyah Restaurant, 164-A Campbell Street, Off Penang Road. Do go before 6pm and be warn finding parking is very difficult.  This post has been edited by DarkNite: Sep 14 2010, 09:55 AM |

There are 3 places, but at below RM200 per night Batu Ferringhi is out that leaves either Tanjung Bungah or Town. Roughly where would you like to stay? |

In that case, you stay in Cititel, cos these food places are within walking distance4. Sup Hameed (nearest Cititel hotel) Nasi Kandar (1 Star) Merlin Hotel, Penang Street/Union Street Line Clear, Penang Road/Chulia Street junction Next to Kapitan Kling Mosque (also Dato Lat's favourite) ROTI CANAI/MURTABAK Hameediah Restaurant, Campbell Street, off Penang Road Behind on Transfer Road (which is one way) there is a old hotel - International Hotel (err..not for stay but makan). Below which is a kopitiam that sells very popular Nasi Padang. Go there before 12noon or else very long queue. Use google map and plan your routes and stops.

@ikan_semilang
"6. Muzium Perikanan" Is this the Jabatan Perikanan with aquarium? FYI, the aquarium is closed for renovation, dijangka buka awal tahun depan. |

Now want to sleep after dinner and maybe try visit interesting place at here tomorrow... darknite...tq for assist me...  Today is a public holiday. Take a drive to Teluk Bahang for picnic by the beach at Taman Negara or by the river at Taman Rimba. Taman Rimba is 1st exit and Taman Negara is 2nd exit at the Teluk Bahang round about. On the way there you can stop for breakfast at Sri Ananda Bahwan which is directly opposite Paradise Sandy Beach Hotel. Further down you'll pass the famous masjid Terapung on your right. You can visit it on your way back to town. Forgot Butterfly/Insect Farm is also there. This post has been edited by DarkNite: Sep 16 2010, 08:31 AM |
