SIMPLY ENAK WALKING TOUR @ GEORGE TOWN PENANG

Cuisine and culture collide in Penang’s new walking tour for street food: When Mark Ng talks about Penang’s char kway teow, nasi kandar and curry mee, your instinctive reaction is to pay attention. Ng seems to know it all – the kopitiams where customers can savour George Town’s top temptations, the history of various vendors, and what makes each recipe so memorably enjoyable. Ng, who grew up in George Town, launched the tour in Penang’s capital city this past year. The affable 32-year-old personally guides each group, which roams George Town’s streets for four hours on any given morning.
