Lighthouse Coffee Georgetown Penang (7) 3

Last Pit-Stop of Penang Heritage Food Trail, Lighthouse Coffee!!!

The last pit-stop. Everyone is quite tense already because after this round, the winner of HTC Wildfire S will be decided. It’s a close competition between Kaya and another participant, Brandon See Toh. 12 points to 8 points. πŸ™‚
Lighthouse Coffee is part of the Logan Heritage Building. It’s headed by Victor, Chief Barista & Roaster. It has a mission/slogan which is ‘Shine U on the World of Coffee’. Victor is trained Autralia with years of cafe experience. He uses the lighthouse as a symbol of enlightening the coffee industry with the correct method of preparing coffee and also the customers on how to really enjoy a good cup of coffee. It really takes skills and knowledge to really enjoy a good cup of coffee. I really salute Victor for his passion and mission. πŸ™‚

Behind 50 Georgetown Penang (1) 1

Behind 50, 5th Pit-Stop for Penang Heritage Food Trail!

Thanks to Penang Heritage Food Trail, I get to review Behind 50, a famous cafe among the netizens and locals. Behind 50 is our 5th pit-stop for the event and the dare questions are getting tougher.

One tricky feature of this challenge is that after the 6 questions asked, participants are allowed to dare other participants to answer a question about the eateries and if the person who is dared cannot answer correctly, his/her points will be deducted 1 point and given to the person who dared the participants. 6 dare questions are up for grab.

Nostalgie Georgetown Penang (2) 0

4th Pit-Stop for the Penang Heritage Food Trail, Nostalgie

After Georgetown being awarded with UNESCO Heritage Award, a lot of boutique hotels, chic hostels, cafe and restaurants are slowly popping out. Here’s the latest addition, Nostalgie, a cafe cum boutique hotel. Nostalgie is a French word for nostalgia. The owners try to bring back our nostalgia during our younger days living in these pre-war houses. Nostalgie is managed by Jean Lee, Jason Lee and family and his childhood friend, Micheal.
With this in mind, the owners preserved all the characteristics of colonial architecture structures while enhancing it with modern amenities such as aircond, fans, lighting and so on.

This is our 4th pit-stop of Penang Heritage Food Trail.

There’s a new dessert house in Penang Island. The name is called Tong Pak Fu η³–ζ€•εΊœ, a nice twist of name of the famous scholar & painter, Tang Yin 唐寅 or better known as Tong Pak Fu or Tong Bohu, ε”δΌ―θ™Ž in Mandarin. This scholar Tong Pak Fu is made famous among the mass people through the movie Flirting Scholar, ε”δΌ―θ™Žι»žη§‹ι¦™, a Hong Kong comedy film.
