Penang Road Chendol

I came here with some relatives who came back from America for a visit. 

They wanted to fill their tummies with as much Malaysian food as possible before flying back. And when we sent them to catch their flight in Penang, it became a chance to go eating around. Our relatives used to patronise the stalls at Penang Road many long years ago... And so there we went.

Penang Road Chendol.

I wonder what's with the crazy long queue for the cendol. Uncle and auntie queued, so we queued. Wasted my calories!!! Imagine the palm syrup and coconut milk! That's my sugar quota for the day! That makes me so geram leh.

After wasting my calories at the roadside Penang Road Chendol, we walked a Penang Road 'Chendul' shop. More regrets.

The Penang Nyonya Otak was the only thing we nodded our heads. Soft custardy steamed fish with the right amount of spice and seasonings. 

Laksa... Better go eat elsewhere, seriously 

Rojak , like that only. Okla, so so. 

So what made this place so popular, with all the proof pasted on the walls?? 

Maybe I'm too dumb.

I don't know and I don't understand.

I came here today... Thinking the queue is going to be crazy....

I arrived at 6, saw around 15 people queuing... Not that bad eh. But my friend won't be arriving yet. And so... I came back again at 6.30pm... Darn! More than double are waiting. My friend and I just queued up and chatted as we waited. It's been many years since we last had a catch up. And it took us around 30 minutes to get a table. Not too bad :-)
