Chinese Nasi Lemak @ Joki Road
Heard the nasi lemak is very famous. The shop is close on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Found it's a bit expensive.
Great Nasi Lemak @ Penang Turf Club
The store is very hard to observe but really good and well known for nasi lemak near to Penang Turf Club. Ikan bilis curry with fried chicken and sotong cost RM5.
Fish Head Bihun Soup and Tomyam @ Pengkalan Weld
This shop attracted me everytime I passed thru the road for lunch. Shop is not really observing if not really put on eye. Owner started the business at 11:30am till 11pm daily. Recommended to try out is Fish Head bihun soup and Tomyam. RM5 per bowl. Soup is very clear, tasty and sweet to take (广东话-火候）.
Mee Jawa and Pasembor @ Bukit Mertajam Sentosa Conner
If you happened to go to BM (Bukit Mertajam), it's another good place to try for Mee Jawa and Pasembor which located at the junction of sentosa market traffic light. What make both special is the source (kuah) and it's only start serving in the late morning or afternoon.
Sabah Pan Mee @ Kedai Kopi Kong Bee Lee – Pulau Tikus
Recently everybody talks about Pan Mee in town that recently opened @ Goh Tiao Loh (五条路). Actually, the owner is the younger brother of this original shop that located in Pulau Tikus.
What make the whole pan mee nice and good in the taste is the black source (黑浆油), noodle and the soup.
Black source (黑浆油) is special made with owned recipe which comes with sweet taste. Soup is great to serve without MSG added.
My friend recommended me to try on dry pan mee, the noodle mix welled with the black source to make it so taste, no oily, very dry till not even a dip of black source dropping. 口感真的很好.
I would say this is the best Pan Mee I ever tried in Penang. Highly recommended.
Shop close on every 2 weeks Friday.

Hokkien Mee and Ice Kacang @ Lebuh Presgrave
Hokkien Mee at Lebuh Presgrave （三条路）is one of well known hokkien in Penang island if you asking around. To me, it's still not the best but no mind to try if it's not long "Q". Of course, it's up to individual and additional ingredients can be added. Sure additional charge to what you are request for. But the ice kacang store in front of the shop is really good. Very olden taste (古早味）

Kota Kinabalu Free and Easy Trip (18th - 20th April)
Visiting to Borneo is always my dream. This is unplanned trip but just made an suddened decision by taking a chances from Jennifer invitation to stay at Novotel. 3 days 2 nites what can we do there? No Mount KK climbing, no hiking, no snookering, no diving, and no water rafting. Really hard to think of what can we do there. However, it's really enjoying and wonderful trip.
Took off from Penang to KK via KL
Took off from Penang to KK via KL
When arrived KK is already 11pm. Journey from airport to OneBroneo is around 20min. It's almost 12:30am to take our dinner (dinner, supper or breakfast?) after settle down with check-in.
The room is not big but yet it's nice and warm decoration especially the bathroom. 
No joke. You can see thru in between the bathroom and the room. How romantic to take shower with someone you love while enjoying the TV program outside...................
This is the most famous Sabah Pan Mee in KK. Everybody told me that a must try local dish if visits KK. But for me, I found still KL Pan Mee is the best but no harm to try. 
Gaya Street Sunday Market

Gaya Street Sunday MarketOne for the famous spot that must visits and it's only open on Sunday. Started since over hundred years. Business starts from 6:30am to 1pm.
Guest House and coffee Shop beside Gaya Street. You can see there is a lots of foreigner around who stayed there while visiting KK and plan to climb Mount KK and snookering or diving in some beautiful island around Sabah. Cheap and clean guest house.
Massage anyone?
UMS(Uni M'sia Sabah) Aquarium.Must visits place. Wonderful campus, seaside and free entrance.
Stop by at Mt KK entrance for resting and walking around during our way to Kundansang. The temperature changes from hot to cool. When reach there around 11am. The weather is around 15degree. It's great.
The Resort decoration is simple and very western feel. They served buffet as well but a bit expensive for lunch (RM50) for nothing much choice.
Desa Dairy Farm - Kundansang
At Kundansang town, you can see lots of stores selling fresh vege and flowers. Somilar to Cameran Highland? But the vege more fresh and really big in sizes.
Poring Hot Spring after Ranau is another famous place especially for those down from Mt. KK after cool and tired body jump down, what a wonderful enjoyament.
Canopy Walk is just behind the hill of hot spring .It's good 800 meters walk to uphill before you reach the starts point. The tree house just before the walk begins :-). The air is cool and nice up here so that helps when you sweat so much!!
Tat is a very huge and a very tall tree. It is a good 30 - 40 feet above ground! This pathway is not suitable for those who have mobility restrictions. If you are afraid of heights do not attempt this Canopy Walk as you will be at risk of getting stuck and there is no other way down except complete the walk or climbing down the tree trunks!
On the journey back to KK town around 5pm, the sky change. Amazing view when the sun start to leave for the horizon ..... it is like on a postcard!
The view at sunset. The landscape changes color from what was so green earlier to a really brown and rustic scenery ...... amazing!
After the long journey to the mountain and back to KK town, we relaxed at KK Water Front for drinks and dinner. The board walk ..... you be surprised, the water down the board walk is crystal clear!
Sunset view at KK Water Front. Another great place that you must not miss it.

Very nice and beautiful. Cool weather. For RM 3 per person at 3pm everyday, the farmers will allow you to milk the cows! Fresh cow milk anyone?!Apparently, 3pm is the time that all the cows will come home, back to the farm after the whole morning gazing on the mountains and eating on the grass. What a life!
