Mural Paintings and Steel Rod Sculptures @ Penang

Besides eating local hawker food, visiting the multi-racial temples and Penang Hill, visiting each site for mural paintings and steel rod sculptures is also a very fun activity. There are a few ways to do this, so it's either by walking which can be very tedious or riding on a bicycle or taking a trishaw to go around from one place to another. Steel rod sculptures can be easily located but mural painting can be a bit hidden from the main street despite you get on the correct street by using the map. So don't hesitate to ask the locals for direction if you can't find! =)

Map can be downloaded from here: http://www.tourismpenang.net.my/pdf/street-art-brochure.pdf

So make sure that you pay them a visit before they are being destroyed because most of them are not well maintained.

Enjoy and have a nice day!

Heaven for Food @ Penang

Penang Hill @ Penang Island

Penang Hill has been evolving for the past few year and it's now a super famous tourist spot on Penang Island (more famous than it was previously). I can see that many of its features e.g. ticketing system, the cable car and the entertainment it contains adapted from other countries that I have been. And one more thing that is very great is that it has a multi-stories building for you to park your car to solve your trouble for looking for road-side parking and there are many buses to get you there as well! So if you haven't been there, make sure that you go there for at least once and I am sure that you will like it! =) 

The queue is long as early as 8 am! You can choose to pay the standard pay to queue up for the cable car or pay more to get into the fast lane to skip the queue..

Very nice cable car.. Since it is so packed during peak hours, you can't really enjoy the comfort in the cable car during the ride..

"We are on Penang Hill!" =) A clear sky to start our day..

Cafe # 1 on Penang Hill

The Guard's Gate

And it's time to say good-bye because it is starting to get hot at around 11 something..

Be thankful that we went there early! Look at the crowd at noon!

 Multi-stories building for parking

We shall come again next time! =)

Enjoy and have a nice day..

Ong Cheng Huat Seafood @ Bagan Lallang, Butterworth Penang

When you talk about Penang, you definitely cannot run away from good food, and Ong Cheng Huat Seafood is one of them! The freshness of the seafood is comparable with those in Sabah but they have quite a limited choices to choose from. Anyway, you will definitely go for the best of the best dishes that they serve if you go there once in a blue moon. And another thing, make sure that you know the way there because it's quite hidden from the main road.

Ong Cheng Huat Seafood, they open for lunch only but till around 5pm..

Simple Fried Bihun.. Just for some carbo loads..

Steamed Snapper Fish Head.. A special taste which is a bit sour.. Tasted like the Thai steamed fish but this version is without the garlic! =)

Blanched Octopus.. This is one of the good dish which you can taste the freshness of it! You can just chew it without the sauce.. Awesome..

Stirred-fry Clams with ginger and rice wine.. Taste good and each of it is huge in size..

Deep Fried Spring Chicken... Very standard dish and it's one of their specialty.. 

Prawn Fritters.. Take it like snacks and you will definitely ask for more! =)

The service is super fast and the price is quite reasonable, just slightly higher than average for the amount of food that we ordered for 6 person. So, it is suggested that not to miss this out for lunch if you happen to pass by this place!

Enjoy and have a nice day.. 

Second Job for Extra Cash Online

Phew.. With the increase cost of living and our thoughtful deputy minister who encourage us to go for a second job, here are some suggestions which I would like to share with you guys which you can work at home! Don't worry, all is workable because I have tried them all! It's just that you need to put in extra effort to get your pay!

1. Online Business

Online shopping is getting very popular nowadays. People can easily shop online with a "click" at many websites with no boundaries such as Alibaba.com, Taobao.com, Lazada.com etc, from clothing to car and houses, with many varieties to choose from and the best prices can be compared with many other retailers. So opening an online store can be a good option but it can be challenging as well! The bad part is that you might need a little amount of fund to set up your store and get your store on track. If you do not work hard to sell your stock, you will make losses rather than gaining profits! 

If you are free, just visit our online store at LittleTomatoCloset on Facebook!

2. Online Typing

Online typing is a free and easy job. You will earn if you type, you will not lose anything even if you do not do anything! You can work day to night and even 7-days a week. I have joined MegaTypers for the past few months and it's going well. I get paid when my fund hits a certain amount and the fund will be automatically transferred into my Paypal account. So to get started, it's best for you to have a Paypal account so that the earnings can be transferred directly into your account. And when you register, make sure that you key in the invitation code B2DC to get recruited for this job. No upfront fee is required!

3. Doing Online Survey 

There are a numbers of online survey website do pay you well if you complete a survey with them. After a minimum payment is achieved (after completing a certain numbers of surveys), you can withdraw the funds via cheque payment, transfer into your Paypal account or exchange for some shopping vouchers. And one more good thing is that no upfront fee is required. Earnings sorely depends on the number of survey given to you. Suggested website are as following:

Ipanel Online - http://my.ipanelonline.com/panel/index

Global Tesmarket - https://www.globaltestmarket.com/

4. Blogging

This is exactly what I'm doing now, blogging! Blogging can be a part-time job and you can work on this anytime and anywhere. It's the same as online typing and doing online survey which have very minimal risk of losing any money! But you need to have the creativity to attract readers to visit your blog or else it will be a waste of time!

So what are you waiting for! Start finding for a second job to your extra pocket money! =)

Enjoy and happy new year!
