Food capital of Malaysia

In this post, I would like to talk about something else rather than introducing another malaysian dish. Having enough to know all kinds of mouth watering dishes, but where is the best place to get the most authentic Malaysian food? If you ever get a chance to visit Malaysia, then you must visit Penang.  Personally, I think Penang is the best place to travel and eat! 

Penang is a state in Malaysia, located on the north-west coast of Peninsular Malaysia by the Strait of Malacca. Penang is long known as the food capital of Malaysia, renowned for its good and varied food. Apart from that, it is also ranked among top ten greatest street food cities in Asia according to CNN Go. In Penang, definitely you will be able to taste the most original and authentic food. To name a few, penang assam laksa (In CNN's top 10 yummiest food), char kuey teow, ikan bakar (grilled fish), cendol, prawn mee and hokkien mee.

Last but not least before I forget, in Penang , the best food is always served at hawker stalls, remember never go into beautiful fancy restaurants. The most well known hawker stalls is located at Gurney Drive. Also, never leave Penang without trying the local traditional biscuit, tau sar piar (bean paste biscuit).
