<p>Interestingly, the prata here is served well cut up compared to a single piece where we are used to having. The fish curry is flavourful with the right mix of spice. </p>

<p>Made a visit to Penang Hill as this is one of the main key attractions in Penang Island.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/20240306_115728-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-17411"/></figure>



<p>As usual, an entrance ticket is required to visit the attraction. You may purchase the normal ticket or express ticket. Difference lies on the wait time as express ticket allows you to use the fast lane without joining the queue.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/20240306_1303133823928675918857098-768x1024.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-17412"/></figure>



<p>I have decided to purchase the express ticket to skip the long queue by paying for more than double the cost of the normal ticket, which is priced at RM30. ð±</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://suanmeizai.blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/20240306_115633-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-17413"/></figure>

<p>Gurney Paragon, located along the promenade of Gurney Drive, is a mixed-use complex within Georgetown in the Malaysian state of Penang. It comprises twin residential towers, an office block, and a nine-storey shopping mall forming the podium. A great place for your retail therapy.</p>
