Ok, the beaches aren’t the best in Asia, but this is made up for the fantastic food Penang has to offer.

I have been going to Red Garden Food Paradise the past few days and I can’t get enough of the place. It’s an outdoor food court with food vendors selling Thai, Penang specialities, Japanese, sate and of course Malaysian food.

There’s even live music and older Chinese folk enjoy a bit of dancing. It’s located on Penang Road close to Penang’s biggest hotels.

I have seen people munch away on these like potato chips. Possibly a good source of fibre?

If you ask for a white coffee, they usually use condensed milk, which makes it sweet, but is highly addictive.
