Jetties with several big name family groups, east coast of George Town, Penang

This place simply reminds me of the time where my grand ma used to work on the water village, before the big fire swept that away.  Aldrich Bay was then transformed into a place for high rise Government houses and some luxury mansions.

These jetty pier with water quarters almost were gone until some local residents decided to commercialise the place to convert the place into something be preserved.  Though the by-product is the noisy tourists, it at least revived the place to attract UNESCO to give it a credit for George Town.

Black Kettle Cafe and restaurant, George Town, Penang

There are quite a growing number of cozy cafe and restaurants in George Town after the town got on the UNSECO's name list.  Came in for a salad and a sandwich with a iced mocha.  All good and not expensive, at just US$15.  The mocha is in a very nice raw cocoa, not heavily sweetened.  Got a cheese cake.  It reminded me of the classic flavour and texture of the cheese cake I tried in MO HK cafe - more than 25 years ago.

On the 2nd floor, there is a museum showing the before and after Penang.  The whole place is good for you to spend 2-3 few hours.

Street Art, Armenia street, George Town, Penang

I am impressed with all these street art and I can say it's really a street art than a graffiti since it has some 3D art with the 2D art. It also reflected a simple innocent childhood.

Suspended in time, China Town, Penang

When a place wasn't intended for any development, everything seemed to have been suspended in time.  Saw some classic Chinese herb without too much chemical preservatives. A travel agent in the old days for checking various travel needs.  A grocery selling some old time preserved food and goodies.  A tea room for our social gathering and slowly enjoying dim sum and tea, and the nostalgic 七星伴月月餅 (seven salty egg yolks in a big moon cake) (*note not the adapted version of the 7 mini moon cakes around 1 big one).  Paper and transparent lanterns....  No electronic toys at all.  Even the local Chinese people are having their heart warming smiles and happy helping for your travel directions.  Not a smiley face on the screen with some sacrastic messages.  I do hear people "laughing out loud".  I do see people "thanks with a true smile".  I see my mother, my father, my grand ma and my aunts and uncle....

What do you think about this shop's name in chinese?

It's right next to Ding Tai Feng.  The shop is called Wong Kok Char Chan Teng.  What's it in Chinese then?
