This post was created in partnership with <\/span><\/i>Visit ASEAN<\/span><\/i><\/a>. As always, opinions are my own. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) turns 50 years old this year! They are celebrating by sharing ASEAN stories and hosting a contest (details at the bottom of the post). They asked me to share my favorite experience in the region. I couldn’t help but to share my amazing trip to Penang and Singapore.\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Asia is for food lovers! Last year, I was in Japan for work and decided to go to Singapore and Penang, Malaysia for a foodie trip. My friend Olivia, a Indonesian who grew up in Singapore was the perfect guide. At five months pregnant, competitive eating had become my favorite activity. Singapore and Malaysia are the perfect destination for that! She suggested we take a trip to Penang, Malaysia exclusively to eat. That suggestion was music to my ears.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stop 1: Singapore<\/span><\/h2>\n

Singapore is unique from the rest of its neighbors. I believe it\u2019s the perfect destination for those who want an introduction to Asia. Everything is orderly, clean, and everybody speaks English. It can feel less overwhelming than let\u2019s say, Bangkok. It\u2019s hot and humid all year long and the city is filled with ultra luxe malls to cool off. There\u2019s plenty to do: rooftop parties at Marina Bay Sands Hotels, wander along the Gardens by the Bay, and discover the delicious food markets. <\/span><\/p>\n

Where to Eat in Singapore<\/span><\/h2>\n

While preparing for my trip, I started asking my friends about food in Singapore. You have so many cultures converging in this city-state and it reflects in its cuisine. If you have to have three dishes in Singapore, you must try: chicken rice, laksa, and chilli crab. Pretty much everybody told me the same thing-\u201dthere\u2019s no such thing as a bad meal in Singapore\u201d. They were not lying.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Singapore<\/a>

Some of my favorites during my trip:<\/span><\/h2>\n

Indian Food at Muthu\u2019s Curry<\/a>: <\/strong><\/p>\n

Olivia and her family have been going to Muthu\u2019s Curry since she was a little girl. She says that she has seen the place grow from a tiny restaurant to a Singapore staple. Loved how they served the dishes in traditional Indian style. The food is presented in banana leaves. You have the option eating it traditional style with your hands (which you see a lot of diners do) or the standard fork and knife. \u00a0<\/span>Muthu\u2019s Curry, 138 Race Course Rd, #01-01, Singapore<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Jumbo\u2019s Seafood Restaurant<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

There are several locations Jumbo in Singapore. Olivia took me to the one on Riverside Point. Located among other fine dining establishments, Jumbo stands out. The thing to order is chilli crab: a huge crab smothered in chili sauce. It\u2019s messy but delicious. Don\u2019t worry, the staff provides you with bibs and gloves! Jumbo’s,\u00a0<\/em><\/span>20 Upper Circular Road, #B1-48 The Riverwalk, Singapore<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Kuan Food Hall<\/strong><\/p>\n

No trip to Singapore is complete without a trip to a Food Hall. There are so many stalls! Thankfully I was with a local that guided me through the process. There, I indulged in laksa, a spicy coconut noodle soup. Kuan Food Hall,<\/em><\/span>122 Neil Rd, Singapore 088855<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\"Discovering<\/a>

Where to Stay in Singapore<\/span><\/h2>\n

There are plenty of places to stay in Singapore. Although I stayed with a friend, I had the opportunity to visit two unique properties. The Adler Hostel is a modern luxury hostel located in Neil Road. I am not big into hostels, but I would totally make the exception for that one! On the luxury side, The Ritz Carlton Singapore. Bonus: they have one of the best buffet meals I have ever experienced. Book a dinner or brunch there even if you are not staying at The Ritz. You\u2019ll thank me later!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Singapore<\/a>

Stop 2: Georgetown, Penang<\/span><\/h2>\n

Olivia and I hopped on a one hour plane ride from Singapore to the Malaysian island of Penang. Our agenda: eat, eat, eat! Olivia\u2019s father arranged for us to have a private driver during our 2 night, three day trip to Georgetown. Given our short period of time, this was a great decision as he knew all the good places to eat! <\/span><\/p>\n

About Penang<\/span><\/h2>\n

Penang is an island off the west coast of Malaysia. We heard good things about the beach but we decided to focus on the food for this getaway. We stayed in George Town, the main city in Penang. You can immediately tell the difference between Singapore and Penang. Penang was more chaotic, people everywhere, and a more humble vibe. It was the perfect contrast for our trip. Bonus: Penang is much more affordable than Singapore. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Exploring<\/a>

What We Did<\/span><\/h2>\n

There\u2019s plenty to see and do in Penang. What makes Malaysia unique is the many religions and cultures that coexist in the country. That makes everything from the landscape to its culinary treasures so rich. \u00a0In Penang, it\u2019s very common to see a buddhist temple, a mosque and a church closely located from one another. There are plenty of temples you can enter and tour. The ornate buddhist temples are stunning with their golden touches, colorful details, and history. <\/span><\/p>\n

Wander<\/span><\/h2>\n

What we loved about Penang was the street art that surrounds the city. Keep your eyes open for the amazing streetart throughout the George Town. We did a lot of walking, taking in the street art and architecture. I also went to my first cat cafe! I know, it\u2019s cheesy but I got my kitty fix at Purrfect Cat Cafe. We ended our day with a foot massage at a small spa near our hotel. The purrfect day! <\/span><\/p>\n

Where We Ate<\/span><\/h2>\n

I wish I would\u2019ve taken more copious notes of the exact places I ate but I failed! Too busy being a pregnant woman with an appetite. We did a lot of roadside stands and small restaurants with our driver, which was amazing. We had plenty of Nasi Goreng (fried rice) and Laksa at tiny, anonymous places.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, one of my top meals of the trip and of the year for that matter was at Wai Kee Char Siew. I think we paid the equivalent of $3 but it was epic. Caramelized pieces of pork with white rice and bok choi. It was so simple yet the flavors were so beautifully complex. True story: I will fly back to Penang just to relive that meal. If you can only have one meal in Penang, let this be it!\u00a0<\/span>Wai Kee Char Siew, Lebuh Chulia, George Town, 10200 George Town<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Where We Stayed<\/span><\/h2>\n

We stay at <\/span>Seven Terraces Hotel<\/span><\/a>. This gorgeous small boutique hotel has a traditional chinese decor with modern touches. Our two-story hotel room is what I envision my Asian summer home to be! Their breakfast was fantastic. Included in our rate ($150 a night) we had the option of traditional Malaysian breakfast or a western breakfast. We tried them both. We approve.<\/span><\/p>\n
