Penang has the Best Food

We Penangites are lucky to have a wide variety of food - from hawker street foods to fine dining in a posh hotel and Michelin star restaurants offering the best delicacies. There is a repertoire of food to cater to different budgets so that it won't burnt a hole in your wallet. Penang has some of the most affordable food in Malaysia and Asia. It is famous for its 'laksa' - a fish and salad soup with piquant taste. It also has the ubiquitous 'nasi lemak' this a a favourite amongst the locals, since it is also 'halal' or kosher. I guess, being a born Penangite, I am lucky to live here and spoilt for choice.
