LIGHT NIGHT IN PENANG

After Chris dropped us off at the hotel, we wandered out to get lunch.  A lot of places were closed on Mondays.  Sam's all-batik-all-the-time store was shut, as were a lot of others.  We couldn't get another chance to try yesterday's eatery for lunch, so we tried 78 (the cafe across the street).  Actually, this one was even better.  

Given that our flight home was an endurance contest, we decided to rest in the afternoon.  Chris had recommended the Red Garden for dinner.  It was close by the hotel, so we wandered over.  What a great place!  All the tables were surrounded by different eateries.  Each table was numbered.  A guy told us to choose a table, and asked us what we wanted to drink.  He brought the drinks, we paid, and then we went to choose what we wanted for dinner.  Name an Asian cuisine - it was there.  I'm not sure where "clay pot frog porridge" comes from - no, we didn't try it.
