it's a bit inside from main road, the best got car of your own, it's popular place, please be early, last i went there the kickapoo in tin can not bottles

If drive from KL, where to exit in penang ah? I wan to go by ferry. So exit which tol?

ipoh selatan 1 tol. then enter ipoh utara exit juru.

I saw in today The Star no more Jelapang tol. Now Kl to penang only 1 tol. Bypass the jelapang tol liau woh.. So i drive from penang straight and esit Juru?"

have to exit juru. is last tol.

if u wan u can exit bukit kayu hitam also.

go by bridge back by ferry go back on ferry dont need pay

the exit you can't miss la. seriously, seeing AutoCity is a good sign.

just that if you want ferry ride, DO NOT go towards the BRIDGE lane, it's stated by the signboard.

you have to travel towards the industrial area (Seberang Jaya there), just stop by for directions if need. you can't get lost going to Ferry, there are directions too.

prepare RM 10 for the ferry right (it's RM 7.70 to be exact..........)

reach there, just follow the line and wait for your turn to embark on the ferry.

after driving off the ferry (once you're docked la) then up to you la, turn left to head south of the island, turn right to head north to places like Gurney Drive and other northern coastal areas.

Need help from Penangites. Can anyone direct me to where I can get halal tau sar pheah for my Muslim friends?

Tks.

I am very sure you can get it from Air itam (beside the very small market) they do sell halal tau sar pheah, perhaps you can try to hit it at penang road...chowrasta market - stores off penang road selling local products.

good luck!

Thanks bro. It have been a while since i drive there. Should be more than 5 years.
Anyway, I got GPS to help me direct my route but just want to make sure and doesnt want to fully 100% reply on machine.

hi guys..are there any apartment recommendation for a big family(11 peeps) for a night in penang..travel period is on 15th of aug..

Go along Tanjung Tokong,look out for a Petronas/Shell (sorry can't remember which one) petrol station on yr right, nearby that station there's a tau sar pheah shop which is halal

Or may be Dragonball biscuit shop.They could be Halal

i'm going penang in 2 weeks time and i'm still in the blur as to which places to visit.... friend couldn't bring us around as he has some important outstation business at the last minute...

any suggestions? going there for 4 days.. sunday to wed.

ermm .. what type of location u prefer ?
it depends

Hi guys. Any suggestions on hotels/resorts along the stretch of batu feringghi?

I did some survey online and found that Golden Sands its the best among all.

Is it worth the price?

wat is the 2nd best after Golden Sands?

thanks!

G hotel.
im staying for rm220++ per night. facing seas. nice

There's renovation going on in Golden Sand now, so the room rate offered might be cheaper. Next to Golden Sand is Rasa Sayang, also one of the best. Both are under the same company anyway.

Park Royal also not bad.

Added on August 3, 2009, 12:36 amDon't go to Sri Sayang Apartment. Nothing like what you see from their web. The place is old and run down, plus major renovation next to it right now. Read this recent complaint: http://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowTopic-g2983...ghi-Penang.html

Eden Fairway is a better choice. http://www.penangguesthouse.com
