Any taxi driver to recommend? My friend and I (just two of us) would be taking the bus up to Penang and arriving in Komtar. We were thinking to go makan makan first before checking into the hotel. We didnt drive because the next day we will be boarding the cruise.

I am visiting Penang in October for a few days.

I am familiar with the island, been there many times. However, I wouldn't where to start looking for nice coffee places in Georgetown or at other areas on the island. Can you guys/gals recommend me a few places with great coffee and a good vibe?

Coffee places are mushrooming all over the place! I am no expert in coffee, but you can give these few places a try or do some research about them:

Kaffa Espresso Bar
ChinaHouse
Pacific Coffee Company
The Mugshot
Coffee Elements

Hope that helped!

Need some itinerary suggestions. My friend from SG visiting, we planning to go KL and Penang for 5 days. The first day would be a Saturday. How long should we stay in penang, 2d1n or 3d2n? which day of the week best day to go Penang? Hotel suggestions are very welcome. And can you guys suggests some places to see/go? Interests: food and chilling, maybe drop by the beach also. smile.gif Not a frequent traveller, so I could use the help.
