Penang....

half way around the globe, i am back to Penang again...

PENANG restaurant in Chicago, that is...

i'm superbly excited over the fact that there is actually a shop named PENANG in Chicago, and it's famous enough to be named as the top restaurant there and have 7 other branches in US....

i am excited, not because i miss Penang food thhaaattt much....

i am excited, as after several frustrating efforts trying to explain where Malaysia is, and what is Penang, there's actually a restaurant in Chicago that explains it all.....

My senior: "There's a restaurant called Penang."
My Chicago friend: " yea, there is.."
Me: " huh, Penang, as in Pinang?>"
My Chicago friend: "herm, well i call it 'Penang', but i guess it is the same as the Pinang u mentioned..."
Me: "Yea, PENANG AS IN PENANG?"
My senior: "yes May, the Penang in Malaysia...."
Me: "OMG OMG, there's whgere i come from!!!"
My Chicago friend: "uuhh?"
My senior: "so, how do find the food there?"
Me (still shocked) : " OMG OMG, there's a PENANG here?"
My Chicago friend: "hehehe, well, the food is a little bit spicy..."
Me: " hohohoh, wait till you come to the real Penang..."
My senior: " Malaysian foods are spicy..."
My Chicago friend: "oh, really? i can't really eat spicy food..."
Me : (still very excited) OMG OMG... there's a Penang in Chicago!!!!....OMG OMg omg omg omg..."

a very interesting conversation....

anyways....

and so, i made up mind to have my dinner there, and eat there we did... =)









how's the food????

well, when u have been eating nothing asian for the past 3 months...

THE FOOD IS SOOO AWESOME!!

but of course, nothing can beat the real deal.... x(

and if you check out the menu, u will find that the price is nothing like Penang at all....

but still.... it's an experience money can't buy.....

and how's Chicago????

one word: fun.....

cuz hello? i was stranded in the ever so ulu Bloomington for like forever...... =)

and till i get back to B-town, i will:

• enjoy myself even more
• BLACK FRIDAY sales!!!
• meet up my friends
• enjoy even more again
• do my homework cuz it's due right after the break.... -_-"

sigh..... fun moments never last long..... >.<
