Back from Kok Lok Temple. The well known char kuey teow (fried noodle) stall at Lorong Selamat was finally opened for business. I decided to try it even though I was pretty full from the laksa earlier.
If you have known from some other sources, the stall was managed by a lady who wore a red hat, and apparently she has a strong character. And that's the reason I did not dare to take a photo of her.
Taste wise, it was tasty and fragrant and worth the RM8 price tag.
Down the road, there was another char kuey teow stall that I tried on day 2. If you like your noodle with a little burnt smell, this stall is for you. I however prefered the other stall.
The stalls selling
ngoh hiang (something like meat pate) and ice kacang (shaved ice) were good.
Note: opposite this stall is the Midland Cafe where dim sum is served in the morning.
Walked past Red Rock Hotel and saw a lot of people gathering outside. I thought that there was a fire, not knowing that an earthquake just hit Penang.
The taxi driver took a while to locate Hotel Chulia Heritage in the old town. It seemed that the hotel is a new outfit and the owner was still renovating the place.
The hotel was located in the old town.
The lobby area was nicely done and the ground floor rooms looked nice. I stayed at the upper floor where toilets were shared and they did not stock up on toilet paper. The floor also squeaked when you walked, so it may affect occupants downstairs. Hopefully all these matters could be resolved soon.
On the plus side, the staff were courteous and helpful.
