going to penang soon.
planning to buy lots of heong peah n tambun biscuits.
which brand is the best and where can i buy them?
i bought some from chowrasta market before but they are not quite nice.
any suggestions?

also, which hotel is the best for me to stay in Georgetown?
it has to be in the city where i can walk n do my shopping.
traders? cititel? berjaya?

thanks in advance

i'm attending a course for 4 days in penang in July. it will be held in evergreen.
my budget for hotel room is between rm150 to rm180. max is rm200 (have to top up with own money)
i called G hotel, northam, Gurney Hotel n evergreen n found that their rates are above my budget.

is there any nearby hotel within my budget?
walking distance is ok, i don't mind.
during nights and weekend, i would like to do some touristy stuff like shopping for local items and eat popular street food.

i have read all posts in this thread and unfortunately, i'm not sure which hotel to stay.
pls help. thanks

thanks DarkNite for your info.
will stay in PPisland instead
