Hello everyone, welcome to my channel! You are in for a treat for an unforgettable 4D3N getaway to Penang, Malaysia, where heritage meets amazing food! From the colorful streets of George Town to the breathtaking views from Penang Hill and the spiritual beauty of Kek Lok Si Temple, this trip is packed with must-see spots and delicious eateries around the town.
🍜 Foodies, you’re in for a treat!
I’ll take you to some of Penang’s most iconic local food places—mouthwatering dim sum, classic local breakfast favorites, flavorful Chinese zi char (煮炒) dishes, savoury locally baked pastries, and nourishing locally boiled bird’s nest from a Chinese store in Penang. Of course, we couldn’t miss the legendary Penang Teochew Chendul—the perfect icy dessert to beat the tropical heat!
🛍️ Where to Get Souvenirs in Penang
No trip is complete without bringing home a little piece of Penang! I explored some of the best places to pick up unique and meaningful souvenirs. From local snacks like tau sar piah (豆沙饼) and handcrafted cute cartoon characters cookies and Penang-themed gifts on the best bargains at Chew Jetty.
🏨 Where We Stayed – The Granite Luxury Hotel, Penang
For our 4D3N stay, we checked into The Granite Luxury Hotel—and it was so good! The room was incredibly spacious, modern, and came with a fully equipped kitchen, which made it feel extra homey and convenient.

It's located in the heart of George Town, just minutes away from Penang’s top attractions and food hotspots—a perfect base for exploring everything the island has to offer.
