Our journey by train around Malaysia continues as we’ve left Ipoh and arrived for a few days on the island of Penang. Today, we’re starting off by exploring the iconic sites and bites in and around the UNESCO world heritage site of George Town, then heading to the legendary night market that’s just minutes away from our resort. Let’s get to it.

Why do you act like your on a movie set …lol
The prawn noodles taste like the lobster bisque we serve in the restaurant
Is it really "barter" for the food or did you mean "bargain"? If it's barter, how does that go? I'm intrigued!
Yall are making me hungry for street food… I miss that element of SE Asia
Hoping that you visit South Korea soon too 💜
Oh my gosh! I didn’t know bits of Crazy Rich Asians was filmed there!😲Thats my fav movie!
Oh gosh you made me fall in love with Penang all over again! This vlog brings back so many good memories for me. It was one of the first places we ever traveled to as a family 🇲🇾
Colt’s food and drink descriptions are awesome!!! I could literally listen to him talk all day about food😂 “Tastes Healthy.” 🥤
The clear white thingy in Chendol/Cendol is not lychee but is mangrove palm fruit (Nypa fruiticans) where this type of palm grow at mangroves all around South East Asia. Lychee is soft and white and not clear looking jelly. In Malaysia we call it as 'Buah Kabong' and that mangrove palm we call it 'Nipah'. Even though Cendol is originally from Java, Indonesia, and the essential element is green jelly and shaving ice which make it different than Halo Halo in Philippines, or Bingsu in Korea.
In Malaysia we have two types of shaving ice dessert.; 1- Chendol which has so many varieties; Malay Cendol which is normal green jelly mixed with shaving ice, red beans, sweet corn, 'buah kabong' and pouring with rose syrup and condensed milk, Nyonya Cendol in Melaka, Indian Cendol, and Cendol you had in Penang is mixed between Chinese and Nyonya Cendol. Another type of cendol is mixed with Durian, and we call it as Cendol Durian. In the east coast of Malaysia mostly Kelantan you can can find a unique cendol mixed with fermented sticky rice and we call it as 'Cendol Pulut Tapai'. (Fermented Sticky Rice Cendol)
2- Ais Kacang (Peanut Ice) – this shaving ice without green jelly and uniquely Malaysian, with all elements of Cendol except the green jelly adding up with fried peanut sprinkles on the top. Another popular name for this dessert is ABC short for Air Batu Campur (Mixed Ice)
Good video 👍🥰🥰🥰🥰
Stinky tofu can be found in Klang valley at Chinese night markets, the ones I know are at Taman Connaught on Wednesdays, Taman OUG on Thursdays. Not sure about penang though
You had me at 'hello we're the lockwoods'… I stayed for the shrimp broth… I lingered for those bean/milk desserts… I hung on for the outtakes. Thanks fam… for devouring the world for your viewers.
