Chefs Association Malaysia | Penang Chapter

This is the story where my fellow comrades and I went to Penang for a cooking competition. Lead by our Chef Abdullah, Chef Zaid, Chef Asma and Chef Din. They taught us alot of thing about cooking. We trained in the kitchen for 2 weeks from sunrise to sunset. It's was a hard time for us because cooking in the kitchen 24/7?! I'll tell you guys it's very freaking stress. Not only that, everyday we've been 'playing' with catfish. All of us getting sick and bored with the catfish. Here are some of the photos that I have during our training.

For the second day. Two of our group made into second round. But we didn't it to the next round. After the competition ends, we went for 'jalan-jalan cari makan'. I can't remember what is the name of that place but that place got night market that sells alot of things like souvenirs and other stuffs. Instead of walking around at the night market. My friends and I stopped at this one restaurant for a drink and chit chat. After that, we went to Gurney Plaza where i think they have the biggest food court in Penang. At the food court you can eat from Malay, Chinese, Indian and even Western cuisines. We ordered so many kinds of foods such as Rojak Penang, Char kuew teow, Boiled cockles, Laksa Penang, Grilled fish and Grilled seafood. All the food are very satisfying my taste bud. The next day, we went to this one market where they're selling more food. That place is called St. Campbell Mall. One of the main attraction of that place are pickled fruits. They are freshly made, but I'm not a big fan of pickled fruits. After we took a walk around the market we head back to our place which is located in Kelana Jaya. It is such a memorable memories for all of us who was participated in this competition. Looking forward for the next one.
