  • Asam Laksa, Char Koay Teow, Cendol, Ais Tingkap, Pasembur, Wantan Mee and more... I try it all!!! If you don't try street food while visiting George Town (Penang Island, Malaysia), then you haven't been there; it's a must! The Penang cuisine is ranked as one of the best in Asia. Furthermore, Penang, with George Town being the absolute epicentre, has also been voted as the number one culinary destination in 2014 (by Lonely Planet).
    Penang food is influenced by several Asian countries, mainly India and China, and therefore, is a mix of traditional Malay, Indian and Chinese dishes with Char Koay Teow and Asam Laksa being the most famous dishes. Asam Laksa has even made it to the World's 50 best foods compiled by CNN travel.
    There's more to Penang food than just the eating; the atmosphere contributes to the amazing experience. Watching the food being prepared and cooked amid the bustling streets of the beautiful historical core of George Town (UNESCO World Heritage Site), not to mention the sounds and smells, plays an important role in the experience.
    That being said, in this episode, you will be joining me for a full day of eating incredible street food in the food capital of Malaysia. I've also included the cost of each dish/meal to provide you with a somewhat relevant answer to the question: how expensive is Malaysia?ENJOY!
    Lastly, George Town is a beautiful city with wonderful people. George Town exceeded my expectations and, as of today, I hold it as one of my all-time favourite destinations for sure.
    FYI: this is the fourth episode in English. My English speaking skills are far from flawless so bear with me :) My channel name, "Matvraket", is Swedish for the glutton.

      I love my Indonesian brothers and sisters, you guys are my peeps but damn, it's amazing how some Indonesian can so brazenly claim the rights to some food that origins were deemed unclear because it is so widespread across Asia (Southeast Asia specifically for most of the foods in this video) for a long time whereas other countries would just share the credit. Just relax dude, saying it all the time won't make it a fact 😂
