Trams used to be a common sight in Penang in the earlier years. However they were later dismantled as cars and buses took over as a faster mode of transport. I personally find trams very intriguing and unique, as they bring a new dimension to the transportation system.

Recently there was a campaign to bring back the trams. More write-ups of it can be view at :

While we were holidaying in Melbourne, the tram was our means of transport. We find it very convenient. There were less traffic congestion and air pollution. We took the photo of this beautiful maroon antique tram and the colourful modern ones in the town centre.

As a Penang based blogger, we should try informing everyone and pass the word around about this campaign. Hopefully we get to see the tram service running again, coupled with a well planned bus network system in the near future. Georgetown would definitely be livelier with the presence of the trams.

Do share your views on this matter with me.

Home Style Restaurant which was opened about six months ago is located in a quiet residential district in Penang. It is tucked away from the main road of Vale of Tempe in a corner shoplot in Lembah Permai, Tanjung Bunga. Situated nearby Summer Garden Food Bistro, this place serve simple home cooked Chinese food.

We had the curry assam fish head which comes with lots of tomato, onions, lady fingers and mint leaves which whet everyone's appetite.

French beans with minced meat.

Braised Tong Bor meat with mui-choy and nuts. The three-layer meat has little fats...very appetizing dish to go with rice.

Bitter gourd stir fried with salty meat (kiam bak). The saltiness of the meat goes well with the bitter gourd. An unusual combination!!

The restaurant faces a big garden/playground. The surrounding open space and the cool air makes dining very pleasant. Its open for business from 6pm daily.
