Sekeping Victoria in Penang

Sekeping Victoria is a combination of a modern cafe and lodging in an old building located along Victoria street (Lebuh Victoria). It's actually opposite the popular cafe Chinahouse. 

Love everything about the place - the space, the ambience, the rustic charm, the walls and the natural lighting from the open space. 

The place is so Instagram picturesque. 







We had some fruit juices and the yogurt cake which it's one of the recommended. It's quite good actually. 



Sneak peek at the rooms. There are front and back suites. Rooms are located at the second floor. 








Overall, its a good place to chill with friends over coffee.

Tan Jetty in Penang

I love Tan Jetty. It's situated next to Chew Jetty at Weld Quay area. Unlike Chew Jetty, Tan Jetty is not that popular and less crowded but it got it's own beauty and uniqueness.

Love how serene the place is. 
Depending on the tide on that day, the scenery will be very different.
First two pictures were taken on a high tide day while the third picture is on a low tide day. 



Along the long wooden bridge, there's a red house in the middle. As seen in the picture, the red house is actually a temple.

Do walk further down beyond the temple area. From there can see a great view of Penang, ferries and Penang bridge.





Heard that there's a restaurant at Tan Jetty serving good Thai food. It's located almost at the end of Tan Jetty. Didn't have a chance to try but will try it the next time I am back in Penang. The shop name is called Lang Sae Lee.

That's all for now till the next post.
