A few weekends back, I went back to Penang because I was feeling homesick and to celebrate my baby sister's birthday. On the Saturday, I had a half day outing to catch up with my brother,Henry at the new premier lifestyle shopping mall in Penang, Gurney Paragon Mall.
Gurney Paragon Mall is the newly built shopping mall in Penang which was opened on July last year. It is located next to Gurney Plaza, along Gurney Drive, a place commonly known not only to locals but foreigners as well. The building architecture was inspired by the former St.Joseph's Novitiate. They have brought many new brands to Penang like H&M, Victoria Secret's, Micheal Kors, Sephora, Rabeanco, La Martina and Sam's Groceria.
"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go." -Dr Seuss-.
Our first stop was at Times Bookstore because my brother loves book a lot. I really wonder how come his sister doesn't loves books? :P Why am I not a book-person? Times Bookstore is located at the fifth floor, beside Bentley Music. They provides book lovers of all ages and interests a wide selection of books of all genres, magazine, stationery and multimedia.
My dream is to travel around the world. Paris is on top of the list!
my brother, Henry

Henry and I were so lucky that day because we get to meet Andrew Tan 陈势安 when we were on the way to meet our friends! Andrew Tan 陈势安 was having an autograph signing event to promote his latest album "非你不可" at the ground floor of Gurney Paragon Mall.
Finally it's dinner time! My little stomach was already making noise. We ended up choose to have our dinner at newly opened, Qian Ri Ramen Restaurant. It is located at fifth floor, outdoor of Gurney Paragon Mall. Qian Ri Ramen is a Asian Fusion Restaurant(China and Hong Kong). They inspires to serve healthy and nutritious homemade dishes.
