10 Cafes to Visit in Penang #2

Times flies and I just realized it had been a year since I last compiled the list of cafes worth visiting!

If you haven't, check out Part 1 here.

Let me stress this again, when I say 'worth visiting', the food is good and the price is reasonable.

I'm not a fan of pretty cafes where I can take thousands of selfies
but the food sucks and burns a hole in my pocket.

So here are another 10 cafes you should visit, they are not the latest ones though cause
there are just too many of them, I have lost track and I have no time to check them out so yea here goes:

1. Soul Cafe, Kek Chuan Road

Spaghetti al Amatriciana [RM15.90]

Cappucino [RM9]

Soul Cafe is the one that I would go back again and again for their pasta, coffee and friendly staff.

They offer a good selection of pasta with generous amount of everything(BACON!) at a very reasonable price.

The cafe also exhibits series of photographs featuring different photographer every month.

2. Bricklin Bar Cafe Hin Bus Depot Art Centre

Almond Salted Caramel Crepe Cake [RM13] | Cafe Latte [RM10]

Brick walls, light bulbs, a book with indie music, nothing could go wrong with those.

Offering good coffee which includes red latte and cold brew, one could go crazy by

just looking at their delicious crepe cakes and tarts!

Located inside the happening art depot, drop by this pretty place for a sip after appreciating some art pieces

or simply enjoy your quiet afternoon here with Kinfolk magazine while people-watching.

3. Sekeping Victoria, Victoria Street

Scribbles on aged and cracked walls, couches made of steel and tall, skinny trees.

Cafe on the first floor and breakfast&bed on the second floor,

this rustic charm has attracted many to take photos and leave lol.

Nevertheless, they have some paleo inspired dishes, burgers and
handmade sandwiches which I haven't tried but looked absolutely delicious.
