Penang treats finale: Kopitiam breakfast and Nasi Kandar

Breakfast in Penang; one can never escape the buzzing crowd in coffee shops around.
After attending mass in the nearby church, we adjourned to the corner coffee shop near Pulau Tikus market for our breakfast.

Frankly, this was not up to the standard and I found it a bit overpriced.

Before they depart home, how could one leave the food haven before tasting the famous Nasi Kandar here?

One is spoilt for choices when one takes a look at the array of dishes available (mostly curry-based)

Everyone has a plate of the Nasi Kandar; which I found highly overpriced!

Everyone enjoyed their short Penang trip and looking forward to come for a second round again real soon....guess my role as a tour guide was not too bad eh?
I even had a little reward for my part-time job...hehehe :-)
Thanks to all my lovely friends!~

I should probably start to consider doing this for extra income huh...
Anyone needs a tour guide around this little island? *winks*

kayu's nasi kandar in KL is good & overpriced ! But people keep coming back , that's the strange magic

The branded nasi kandar (Kayu, Pelita, Subaidah) all were cut throat shops.

I prefer to find those old school ones like Line Clear (Penang Road), Sulaiman (Dato Keramat Road) and Nasi Kandar Beratur.

BSG, there is certainly 'MAGIC' there...something which I can't reveal here...perhaps I shall tell you next time;)

foodPOI, I am not keen on nasi kandar; just my friends asked to go to this famous Kayu.
I totally agree with you on the overpricing lar!!!
