Penang hawkers food

For the first timer to Penang,Malaysia, welcome!Those who like spicy food,it should have been no problem but those with weak stomach,just taste these food first and get your taste buds adjusted to the varying degree of spicy temptations that the hawkers here can offer.A Japanese friend of ours,Ms Yukii found these food so tempting but with just a small sip of the gravy would send her to the toilet!Whereas her husband, Ken-san(that's how my blog is named after!) can eat anything in the sun.My wife and I will surely miss this young couple who will be going back to Tokyo, Japan in a week's time.
Just last week too, we met a friendly Australian couple, Wendy and Barry Cooper from Melbourne.An elderly couple who preferred to travel light.At the foothill of Penang Hill, a famous landmark where most tourists will ask their tour guide to take them to.After climbing the Tee Kong temple or popularly known as the God of Heaven temple,my wife suggested to me to climb the Penang Hill as we have not done so for so many years.We happened to bounce into one another and decided that we would make Wendy and Barry remember their holidays on this sunny island of Penang a memorable one.What they wanted to hear,see and taste we guide them to the best of our ability.We took them to our home on Chinese New year and let them taste the love letter,Kueh Bankit,Kueh bulu and many more.To their delights,they took all in their stride including the madarin oranges!We ended up at the New world park for the Kueh Teow thing(gravy noodle),Char Kuey Teow(Fried broad noddle),yam rice to go with yong tow hoo ,ice kachang and lots of fresh juices. The next morning, Barry could not wait to tell his other tourist friends during breakfast at a five star hotel at Batu Feringgi!
Bon Voyage Ken and Yukii, so too to Wendy and Barry Cooper!
