War Museum Penang, Batu Maung

The War Museum is situated at the south east of Penang at Batu Maung. It was a good walk around the area, though there weren't much to sight-see or to gain knowledge.

Worst was, there were no discounts given (despite we have more than 10 in the group). We all paid RM15, and for foreigners, the price was doubled unless there is a student card or work permit shown. And, there were additional charges for cameras (RM2).

Somehow, I didn't like the aunty.. :D

And.. that's the lowlights of the trip.

The Highlights:

1. Enjoyed the tunnel walks

2. Enjoyed the tyre swing

3. Enjoyed the climb on a high ladder

The tunnel and the death toll

Apparently, they have night tours, which I think it was more like a ghostly haunted place

Some exhibits

No wonder he's offended to fix it to 'net'! C'mon. I'm in an american MNC, I should be more sensitive towards this.

An Encounter with Gelatissimo

It was an eventful Saturday afternoon. I had an 'appointment' with Gelatissimo , Gurney Plaza, Penang. I have always wished to try gelatos there (since Lecka Lecka has gone for good) and it's the ONLY store serving gelatos in Penang (I think). There you go.. I'm going to blog on my 'encounter' with Gelatissimo. First and foremost, consumers need to be educated the difference between ice-cream (Haagen dazs, Baskin Robbins, Walls etc) and Gelatos. Gelatos is italian frozen ice dessert and the method of making it is different from ice cream . Basically, gelatos has less cream than ice cream and it has higher density (the molecules are nearer as compared with ice cream). Most importantly, I think the fat content is less as it has more original food as compared with ice cream (usually with articificial coloring and flavours). The friendly staff posing for camera. The girl in spectacles would always asked me if I would like to try their flavours. To be honest, I trie...
