Gurney Drive, Penang.

  1. This pictures was taken when I made a weekend trip to Penang a few months ago. Was staying near at a place where they didn't have anything appealing to eat so decided to take a drive to the all famous Gurney Drive for some dinner.
  2. True to the fact of it being popular, the place was packed with people mainly tourist. Coupled with the rain, it was difficult to get a place to sit. When we did, it was difficult to decide what to eat.So decide to order from stalls closes to where we were sitting.
  3. There was this place that had a long queue for fried oysters. So i joined in the queue. The proprietor makes a batch of the fired oysters and sells them so the waiting time for each batch was about 5 minutes.
  4. Then it started to rain, the queue did not relent. One of the customers (must be a tourist like me too) in the queue commented that "is it that good?"
  5. Anyway got my plate and it wasn't cheap and the servings was also not too generous.
  6. Then proceed to ordering the smoked squid next door.
  7. All in all, the food was just above average but after travelling a long way and the reputation of the place one can't help but giving this place a try when you are in Penang even if its not that worth while.
