      I'm proud to born in Penang, the way we eat chicken foot is really eating all the skin by removing all the bones using our tongue to squeeze the bone out to the plate. I learned eating chicken feet when I was 15. Enjoy your trip in Malaysia as well as other countries 🤗🤗

    Did you know it’s been voted the 3rd best island to retire in 2021 by international living after Malta and Mallorca?
    Well to eat chicken feet you eat all apart from the bones. The collagen is very good for the body.
    Enjoy Penang.

      Welcome back to Malaysia! To eat chicken feet, bite off part of the leg. By doing so, you get to enjoy the taste while chewing off the skins and spit out the bones later.

    Yes. Food capital in the world is Malaysia. And probably Penang in particular.
    Reasons:
    1. Three main ethnics groups share their food cultures, each with deep roots.
    2. Spices of the South Seas like no others in the world.
    3. Easy people. Reasonable price.

A brief description of Hari Raya @ Eid for muslim generally, in muslim calendar, we fast for the whole month in the month of Ramadan which started on 3rd April. than come the month of Syawal where we celebrate Eid or we call HARI RAYA on 3rd May. on raya day, we usually gather with families, perform a special pray in masjid/house, than we asked forgiveness from our parents & elderly. kids will get `duit raya' (pocket money) than we will eat a special dishes together like KETUPAT, LEMANG, RENDANG, COOKIES and the the list keep continue.... we'll go visit our relatives/neighbour/friends's house and repeat the whole process again (EATING the most!) ha..ha.. Usually before covid, the Prime minister or other minister will hold an `OPEN HOUSE' where all are welcome to visit including non muslim & foreigners, gather and eat foods for free. The OPEN HOUSE happen not only for HARI RAYA but in CHINESE NEW YEAR & DEEPAVALI too!

    I am glad you are enjoying our beautiful country, which is truly beautiful from Perlis to Sabah. I hope you guys have the opportunity to explore more parts of Malaysia besides Pulau Pinang (Penang). But do take care and follow Covid SOP, Malaysia is slowly re-opening itself. We are currently in the endemic mode, i.e., living with Covid and accepting fact that it won't go away anytime soon, no point brooding over it, life has to go on and be as normal as it can possibly be. Have a good one in Malaysia.

    Hi The Backpacking Family..welcome to Malaysia. I just discovered your channel & immediately subscribed. It's fun watching your family enjoying life in Penang especially your two cuties boys.
    I would like to recommend you to go to Langkawi Island to enjoy its natural beauty, prestine beaches, mangrove tour, waterwalls & Skycab. You can go there by ferry from Penang Jetty Terminal in Weld Quay, Georgetown..its tooks 2 & half hours to reach Langkawi. I hope you & your family got as much sweet memories while you're in Malaysia.

    If you like rain, history, nature, food included in one place, then Taiping is definitely a must go... Locals call it as "raintown", cuz it's raining every evening or at least 3 days of raining in per week, especially in sept-dec...
