THE UNPLANNED GASTRONOMIC ADVENTURE IN BAYAN LEPAS

   24th NOVEMBER 2024    ~ The stay in Bayan Lepas, Penang, was unplanned. Hence, we had also an unplanned gastronomic adventure.

The chosen restaurant was Kapitan which was near the hotel where we were staying. Thank God for that as I had had enough of Thai food already, after the 4D3N stay.

At 9:00 p.m., the restaurant was still full with customers dining in. The conclusion made is this should be a popular eating place here. Everything cost us about RM90 and I think we could get more delicious food in Hatyai a few days ago with the same amount of money. No wonder Malaysians are flocking into the neighbouring country during weekends, public holidays or school holidays.

There was a 7-Eleven store nearby and I went in with Mr. Ridwan and his daughter.

From the observation, comparatively speaking, I would say 7-Eleven outlets in Thailand were more exciting and entertaining, with variety of products to choose from. No wonder Malaysians flock into these convenient stores to shop when they go visiting.

The 7-Eleven top people should do something, considering we are now receiving stream of tourists into the country. They could make the stores a part of the attractions too, like what they do in Thailand.
