Penang's "famous" food!

This is to be the first part of the epic journey around Penang in search of unique food that are supposed to be really "special".

Now this is supposed to be one of a kind. U may be wondering whats so special about coconuts in a fridge. take a look...noo nothing special here

Tardar! okay so basically when you open it up, there isn't coconut water, but instead there is Jelly. Now according to the owner the jelly is 100% natural and is formed by some super complex process of heating and cooling. I went along with the story till i realised that the coconuts were actually opened before i got it! And so, i think that they just added jelly powder into the coconut and let it harden. JY bought one to take home and the guy said it could last for 5 hours without a fridge. If its natural, i don't think it would last that long...

The coconut cost me 3.70 and it was SMALL. Besides the fact that the jelly was inside it, there was nothing really special about it. I enjoyed it though. I shall say...

6/10.

Next stop was the one and only "famous" PENANG CHENDOL STALL! wooooooo!

This place is located in one of the lorongs in Penang road. I've been hearing alot about this place and didn't get the chance to go there. I would have to say, it was one of the best chendol I have ever eaten. I also have to say that this is one of the most satisfying "famous" food that i have eaten so far. all the rest were... disappointing. [maybe i was expecting too much...]

Uncle laughing all the way to the bank...

Ahhh Chendol...

Even PCK ate here... [this is how they got famous laaa =p ]

Now, A bowl costs RM1.70 and it was worth it. With the brown sugar and the santan and all that... =D We parked our car near by and stood on the road slurping away at our chendol. There was another stall opposite they had NO business. I kinda felt sorry for them because there were so many people buying chendol from this famous stall, and the one opposite had 0 people. Oh well, what to do.

Me rate it:

9/10 [shocking right?]

Next Up: "Famous" Mee Goreng,

Located somewhere in Pulau Tikus.

To tell you the truth, This was in fact the best mee goreng i've eaten. And I have NOT eaten many at all. I found it really nice but not up to the standard of "famous". One plate of the mee costs RM4 and considering the amount of sotong in it, it was worth it.

My rating

7/10

Credits to JY for the pictures, and cE for playing the part of the driver. Special thanks to Soony who packed a chendol to take "home". [pssst. It ended up in somebody elses stomach... *wink *wink]

Samurai: DONT PLAY PLAY.

1:45: Cuts the top half of a mushroom's cap off.
3:30: Horizontally cuts a bean lengthwise.
5:15: Cuts a 6mm Airsoft BB shot at him in half. GW realizes bringing a gun to a Samurai fight might not be enough.
8:00: Cuts an iron pipe in half without bending or warping the pipe.

Imagine if he uses that sword on you....

KAPOW!

IGCSE

Rooted around and discovered these pictures from high school. Brings back memories...

Youth Gathering @ The View.

Now if I say i went to the View, People here would be like... huh?
If i were to say: "ahya u know lah... 2 tower tower..." They'd go: OOOOOOOO.

So yeah, Basically The View is a building that you cant miss. If u come to Penang by the bridge, u'd practically pass it.
What makes it so special....

Its Penang's version of KLCC. LOL!
And yeah... its a condo... and somebody lives there.

And this time, the youth gathering was hosted there because one of our friend lives there and you know.... we house hop :p

cE came along with me after college. We went and watched James and Soony play badminton at the YMCA and just for the fun of it, the 3 of us had a bet on how many times the lord soony would fall down. I betted that he'd fall once, cE said twice and James betted thrice.

In the end, I won.

Soony did a spectacular dive for the shuttle and even though the dive was fantastic, the shot failed. [THIS ISNT FOOTBALL SOONY!]

Now usually when these type of gatherings are held, I usually end up being the EARLIEST [HAH! IN UR FACE.] because of 2 things. One: I always know how to get to the place before i actually get there. Two: I end up with my classmates who drive like there's no tmmrow. [I encourage them to drive that way actually...]

So i was sitting and lazying around when Onion looks out the window and goes A RAINBOW!
SO i looked out of the window, which yes, was one whole wall and i saw this:

DA RAINBOW!

Which makes it the second time that I'm early for the gathering and also the second time i spot a rainbow out the window during my early-ness.

We played this game where everyone had a string which one end was fastened around each person's waist and the other end tied to everyone else's string right in the middle of the circle. Right in the middle was a pencil attached to the string lah. everyone was supposed to face outwards and one guy face inwards and give commands to everyone guiding them to get the pencil into a bottle placed on the floor.

It was hilarious. Raymond got fedup and just turned around, shuffed the pencil into the bottle and tardar! we WON!

Now Moar Pictures:

Onion's cube... =.=

Yeah... The Bridge.

And yeah one more of the building.

P.S: I started a tag for the Youth gatherings.

I am also pissed at Streamyx because for the entire evening yesterday, I didn't have Internet access due to some nonsense with their system. After calling them for like 6 times and being put on hold for 10 minutes, I got through and had to put up with a guy who kept asking me stupid questions like if my modem was on, or if i checked to see if it was plugged in, or if my computer was on.... =.= Malaysia Boleh.

Like I said: The best job in the world.

Chuck Norris Facts.

Thanks to Soony who got me addicted to this nonsense.
Seems that this was actually created for Vin diesel but the chuck Norris version got more popular.

We shall enter the world of CHUCK NORRIS!!!

• Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked someone so hard that his foot broke the speed of light, went back in time, and killed Amelia Earhart while she was flying over the Pacific Ocean.
• There is no 'ctrl' button on Chuck Norris's computer. Chuck Norris is always in control.
• Chuck Norris can kill two stones with one bird.
• If you have five dollars and Chuck Norris has five dollars, Chuck Norris has more money than you.
• Chuck Norris doesn't churn butter. He roundhouse kicks the cows and the butter comes straight out.
• A Handicapped parking sign does not signify that this spot is for handicapped people. It is actually in fact a warning, that the spot belongs to Chuck Norris and that you will be handicapped if you park there.
• Chuck Norris once bet NASA he could survive re-entry without a spacesuit. On July 19Th, 1999, a naked Chuck Norris re-entered the earth's atmosphere, streaking over 14 states and reaching a temperature of 3000 degrees. An embarrassed NASA publicly claimed it was a meteor, and still owes him a beer.
