Today's topic is about all the events and activities participated by SK, short for Soon Kim (me!). I will only post events with pictures and photos. There are other events with no photos, so I won't be talking about it here :P

The month of June! It was my semester break. These days semester breaks are getting shorter and shorter. My classmates Alex and Kelvin a.k.a. Fei Fei paid a visit to Ipoh on a Wednesday by bus - en route to Penang to visit Yeow Kuong.
Hut Lim and I brought these 2 big eaters round Ipoh to eat. It was non-stop eating, starting from the place 'underneath the big o'l tree' in Pasir Puteh for lunch. Good yong tau foo and hor fun served there. Next stop was Nam Heong, where we brought them to drink Ipoh's famous Old Town White Coffee in the evening. After the rain we headed to Menglembu, the place where Hut Lim resides. Food is cheap there, as we tasted 'Lok Lok' for 60 cents each stick and a big takeaway packet of 'Leong Cha' for just less than RM1. Night time dinner was Lou Wong's Chicken Bean Sprouts in town, followed by supper at 'Tung Kui' or the Eastern Section of Ipoh as we say it in Cantonese. This place is just behind Jusco and nearby Tesco, fully packed with cybercafes, food outlets and mamak stalls, pubs, snooker centres and other various shops. It is a popular hang out spot for youths in Ipoh at night as this place and GreenTown are the only 2 places with entertainment still open till late nights.
The next morning was dim sum at Foh San Restaurant. For those who don't know, Ipoh is also famous for its dim sum. The egg tarts were specially fresh and delicious, and you can't find har gao with this big sized prawns in KL or PJ.
Then it was time to head to Penang. The journey takes around 2 hours from Ipoh. Upon reaching the Auto City, Yeow Kuong brought us to eat before bringing us to his 3 storey bungalow house. Rich. Haha. We headed to the Penang Island itself to stay in Yeow Kuong's old condo in Bayan Lepas. For these few days, the activities were mostly eat, eat, eat, and eat. (No prize for guessing how I gained weight). No joke, most of us can eat a lot! From Penang's famous Har Mee to Char Kuey Teow, cheap and good steak, steamboat...you name it, we ate most of the local delicacies.
Unfortunately there was no photo taking, a big thanks to short term memory.
Ah, here's a group photo though...at the steamboat place.

Ever seen a cute panda? Here:
It was also this trip that I've visited my uncle and aunt living at the Gold Coast Condominium and get to see my sister and my cousins. Miss them all.
The trip ended with us heading to Bukit Tambun for seafood. It was delicious and cheap. RM 100++ for 5 people. Good? Si beh ho!
