The list – compiled by CNN experts around the world – hails Penang as “one of Asia’s best street food destinations”<\/h2>\n

“The Malaysia island of Penang is arguably one of Asia’s best street food destinations.<\/strong> It offers a mix of traditional Malay, Chinese and Indian dishes, as well as fusion cuisines such as Baba Nyonya, or Peranakan, which incorporates regional ingredients and Chinese and Malay cooking methods. All of it can be found in hawker centers and shop houses throughout George Town,” the American news network wrote.<\/p>\n

CNN also highlighted Penang’s diverse architectural culture in the form of its collection of historic buildings, ranging from old English colonial mansions and Islamic mosques to intricate Chinese temples and rustic shophouses.<\/p>\n

Some of Penang’s old colonial buildings have been restored and repurposed into museums and boutique hotels in recent times.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
