I’ve always loved Penang’s food scene! That spot in Bukit Mertajam sounds amazing, I’ll have to check it out next time. And staying at those hotels sounds like a great idea too—perfect for a food-filled getaway. Penang really knows how to make a traveler fall in love!
I’ve been to Bukit Mertajam too! The food scene is amazing, especially that one local spot with the best satay. Totally agree about dedicating a full day – there’s just so much to try! And those hotels sound perfect for longer stays.
