YUM! So that's what Food Heaven looks like.
I think I need to make a special trip to Penang next year. ;)
BTW, what variety of durian is that? I was surprised to see that the one in the middle has such thin skin.
duriandave: I don't know, but its a famous durian stall in penang...it's very VERY tasty:-)
Hi hcpen --
Yeah, I often feel that my main activity when (back) in Penang is eating. Either that or discussing which places are good to eat at and what's particularly good to eat at them! :D
YTSL: Oh, yes!:) Totally agree..
Bogdan: Thanks:-) Nice to meet you!
everything is great.. hmm maybe some of those pictures of the food can be taken a little closer.. that will be even more tempting!
