This is a scene in front of my old friend's residence. Breathtaking in the morning. Penang is an island with all the best Asian food it can offer. If you're a foodie, this island is a must visit destiny.
If you happen to travel to Penang Island, Malaysia, try this Nasi 7 Benua. Literally translated to English would be 7 Continents Rice. The 7 continents are actually representing the 7 types of rice served on a plate. These 7 types of rice are Nasi putih, nasi tomato, nasi lamuni, nasi lemak pandan, nasi hujan panas, nasi kacang and nasi minyak. For the dishes to be eaten with the rice, feel free to choose from the many selections of chicken, beef, seafood and veggies. This is really good, you should try if you happen to be in Penang!
If you into Chinese pancakes try the ones here. I like banana and Hawaiian. Eat it hot while still crispy
