I'm not sure, I've not been to all the jetties in Malaysia. But from my experience the jetties in the islands of Langkawi and Pangkor have beautiful views. Outside Malaysia, I can't remember the view of the jetty from Phuket going to Phi Phi, Thailand, but I remembered that a hotel that I stayed had its own small jetty. In Mumbai, India, the jetty in front of the Gateway of India and its view is quite beautiful, especially from the luxurious room in the Taj Palace Hotel which I stayed for 2 weeks on official capacity, working night and day to welcome the Malaysian delegate coming to Mumbai for a trade and investment mission. The jetties in the east coast of peninsular Malaysia also have beautiful views, it was so long ago that I can't remember the views. 😀
@@Yasin_Affandi There are so many breathtaking jetties around the world! Thank you for sharing some of your experiences! We hope to see more jetties in our travels! 😊
@@BingoandBinew As usual, I tend to forget something. One of the most beautiful jetty I've been to was at Awarna Porto Malai (now changed to a different name) in Langkawi, it has a beautiful boardwalk facing the sea and it also has a jetty that used to welcome guests from cruise ships. One of these days you guys could include Langkawi when visiting Malaysia again. 😀
Back to the topic, being a recent malaysian migrant to Penang, I always find Penang is such a beautiful place, beautiful beaches, green hills, villages, towns there is so many things to explore, jungle hiking, and other activitiesxx
@@BingoandBinewHave you guys had Milo in Malaysia, it's a malt chocolaty drink. The picture of Milo is on the wall when you guys were having the coffee. 11:48. 😀
@@BingoandBinewWonderful. Malaysia has lots of 3in1 drinks mix sachets like Nescafe, Boh, Lipton, Milo, Cadbury, Horlicks, Nestum, White coffee etc. 😀
Thks for sharing this jetty! Only 5min walk frm my accommodation so I will be sure to get up early + see that beautiful sunrise! Maybe ill make an instant coffee first tho😅😂
The coffee shops that sell drinks are usually separate vendors with the food stalls, which is why they usually (forcefully) wants you to order at least a drink if you're eating in since they own the place and that's the only way they could get an income (aside from getting rentals). Although as a local i hate this culture, but sometimes it's understandable too.
Usually soup for morning especially fish ball soups they might give you soya sauce with pickle chilli so you can scoop apiece on top of your keuw teo spoon and eat it.
@@BingoandBinew I've been to Penang before in 1996 (oops showing my age there...😋) but never really gave it enough time to visit more thoroughly so I've been taking notes from various vbloggers including your good selves so really appreciate your discoveries and positive outlook. Cheers from Belgium 🍻
@@alho9231 Hiiiiii! 👋🏽 Aw we’re so happy you’re getting some ideas from us! We love to hear that you’re still traveling and revisiting places you enjoyed before. We hope you discover new reasons to love Penang! 🥰
Pushy boss man with the drinks! 😆 I always get drinks bc malaysia is hot + the ais kopi is delicious + not expensive. I drink too much kopi there actually. I have noticed some places have diff food + drink vendors so maybe he was concerned about securing a sale…
The noodle soup that you ate actually tou go further down same row there are tiger koay teow tnng and Pitt street koay teow tnng are more delicious and famous. And from this kopitiam turn to right side is Lebuh Melayu, a kopitiam called 113 duck meat koay teow tnng also very famous, must not miss all these 👍😊
Its moment like these that we feel an amazing awe for our eys and what we can see. Because the camera could never do justice of the real view. Enjoy these moments ❤ thank you for sharing this shots jon and linda. Next time, i wish for you guys to visit cherating beach. It is an underrated beach on the peninsular with long history of its surfing culture among the locals. They have good boulangerie and cafes, just a few hours from kuantan
@@SekolahRimbaStudio It was our pleasure, and you’re very welcome! Thank you for your recommendation, we have pinned it on our map for a future visit! 😊
@@BingoandBinewi would love to host you guys to come to Janda Baik, Pahang as well next time you come visit Malaysia. Pahang have lots of hidden gem, that i actually moved to Pahang from KL, 15 years ago.
Linda I agree with you some things are better left unchanged imagine if these were turned into big resorts or malls what will we have to wake up early to? also these lovely kopitiams / Makkans / food stalls I wish they would be handed down to the next gen so they don't fade away Jon likewise! Google map is my reliable friend !
@@allancristophe6810 That would be so sad! I really hope that these places are preserved as much as possible! Google Maps is the best! We have SO many pins on ours! 😮💨
It's good to have your drink by your side while you're enjoying your meal because you never know if you were to choke on your food or something. Also, you could've bitten on a super hot chilli and you need some water to tone it down. Make sense, isn't it?
In Penang, it becomes a MUST to order drinks from the shop operator or "table owners" in street hawker area. If you refuse to order, then you have to pay RM0.50 to RM1.00 for using the shop's table. Where as at the street hawker place, the "table owner" out right chase you off. It's been a practice for a long time which as Malaysian from KL, I find very annoying & unwelcoming.
What is all the fuss with compulsory drinks orders? Isn't it just common sense to eat & drink together?? How do you flush down your food without ordering any drinks? Choking it down I guess?👇🤔 Or just Stingy much? I have lived many many years in KL & also growing up when eating out with my parents since child we have always ordered drinks to go with any food - regardless it's in a real restaurants or outdoor street vendors too! & For god sake Malaysia weather is so hot so who doesn't need more icy cold drinks anyway?? Now I am living abroad in Europe & I see here at EVERY RESTAURANT in EVERY COUNTRY I have been to EVERYONE ALSO always order drinks with their food so Penang is not setting any unprecedented rules ok! Just stay at home & cook if you don't even want to pay 2.50 for a simple drinks out!
@@marcusgoh73 We believe everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Some people do not like this rule, and others have no issues with it. Same with preferences for drinks with meals or drinks after meals. For us, we prefer drinks after our meals (we know this isn’t the norm!) but we also have no issues getting drinks during, like we did in the video. We hope you can see both sides from a place of understanding. Stay well!
@@BingoandBinew Well I am seeing both sides from a place of understanding because those street vendors are facing hardships with high inflation nowadays & I was referring to those Malaysians who aren't willing to pay 0.50 USD for drinks because they just want to sit there occupying the seats without consumption. As other viewer has commented - those kopitiam are run by the drinks vendor who rented out the individual stalls to food hawkers so the drinks are their main source of incomes. I have faced with much harsher treatments in Japan & Hongkong so trust me when I say Penang is not unprecedented at all in doing such logical thing - ordering drinks with your food. All the restaurants in Europe always ask you to put through orders of your drinks even prior to taking orders for food!
@@marcusgoh73 We appreciate you elaborating, the extra insight is helpful. There are many countries we have also visited where drinks are required, every person has to order a main dish, etc. It changes from place to place. We are learning as we go and we want to make sure we respect the culture of each place we visit. 🤗

@@chewplace We hope you go! It’s so beautiful! 😍
@@BingoandBinew Sure I will.
Some Kopitiam own by the drink vendor, he/she sublet it to a few other vendor which cater to the food. Hence the separate billing.
@@kamaruddin9172 Yes, that makes sense! 😊
As a malaysian, I really disagree with such drink requirement. People shld be allowed to sit and eat without buying drinks
