Food, food, fabulous food!


Keith gets a lesson in preparing lok lok -- fish on a stick from a myriad of fresh and flavorful choices. (not to be confused with fish sticks)

Here a stand featuring rojak provided an enjoyable experience. You select from the various meats, breads, fish, vegetables and fruits. Then it is taken behind the counter and chopped to bits whereupon a lovely sweet and spicy sauce is spread all over. Very good and lots of fun. Next time I will chose more cucumber and fresh pineapple and less fried bread.

At a very muslim corner of the island some distance from Georgetown, we asked the waiter for a recommendation and were offered these lovely breads baked thin on a griddle and then one was rolled into a long tube and served with assorted dipping sauces. Yum~

Penang quite prides itself in the vast varieties of cuisine. Here we enjoy probably the best Indian meal we have ever or will ever have. The chef must be a genius to get the flavors so right and the ingredients so fresh. Passage Thru India
