Thank you to the readers and writers for voting Penang, Malaysia as 2nd (as to date of this post) for readers recommendations as the destination to be and one of the only (next to Phuket, Thailand) the only south-east destination in this interactive poll. Keep on voting. The 44 Places To Go in 2009, NY Times.
Not only that, we at the foodsters' HQ are very excited to know we're being mentioned and receiving vast amount of traffic and a link in the article (a first and honoured being in nytimes) and Penang Street Foods. Thank you NY Times writers and contributors.
"...refined dishes like the char kuey teow - noodles with prawns, chilli paste and cockles - rarely cost more than USD $2" the only char kuey teow dish that I know for sure cost more than USD 2 is the lobster char kuey teow at a whoopping USD $40 per plate at malaysian restaurant Awana, London. Mind you, with that price, it's one of the popular dishes there serving 70-80 plates daily as reviewed by the foodsters' at friedchillies.
I've not tried it, and I sure do like prawns and nothing beats having fresh succulent prawns with char kuey teow let alone lobsters. Might just bring a raw lobster and get one my favorite and nearest-to-me char kuey teow mastro, tony's at damansara uptown to cook me up one. "Tony, lobster char kuey teow satu!" "Apa!? Lobster... *gila punya budak*"
