Valentine’s Under $50: Best Hawker Feasts and Picnic Spots in George Town, Penang

Fete romance without emptying the wallet at the centre of George Town. This is a UNESCO world heritage site that has a lot of food and picturesque landscapes that would make a wonderful Valentine day outing at a very affordable cost. Bypass the expensive food places and get engrossed in the real beauty of the street food culture of Penang. A royal meal costing less than 50 (around RM200) with Char Kway Teow at Siam Road or the well known Laksa at Air Itam then a cool drink of Teochew Cendol. Once you quench your cravings, go on a slow walk in the colonial streets or go to Esplanade and have a relaxing time by the beach.

Unforgettable Cheap Date Ideas with Street Food

For cheap date ideas, nothing beats a hawker center tour. Go to New Lane or Gurney Drive where you can enjoy a few dishes of Satay, Oyster Omelette and Hokkien Mee with a couple of dollars. The vibrant environment will make your night special as you can be able to taste the different food without fear. It is a truly real method of connecting on new tastes and leaving your wallet jovial.

Relaxing at Scenic Evening Spots

End your date at one of George Town’s scenic evening spots. Take a pack of local pastries, and go to the Penang Botanic Gardens to have a quiet sunset picnic amidst the green plants. Or, you can take the funicular to the top of Penang Hill to have amazing panoramic views of the lights of the islands in the island, which will make this a magical backdrop to your special evening.
