Feringgi Grill at the luxurious Shangri-La’s Rasa Sayang Resort & Spa is no newbie in the Penang food scene.

I love traditional Chinese style desserts or more commonly known as “Tong Sui’ (directly translated from Cantonese as ’sugar water’). Unfortunately, these popular tea time snacks sold by vendors I know of are only available in the afternoons and finish by early evenings. Therefore I hardly get to patronize these stalls unless its a weekend.On ...
