Penang Floggers Gathering At Edelweiss (Georgetown)

Yes, it was great to have finally met all the other food bloggers from Penang. We recently had a floggers gathering on 26 September organised by none other than the reputable food enthusiast, Lingzie herself. Much appreciation to those who were also involved in organising and contributing to the event- Gil and Jason of Gourmet Garden, CK Lam of What2See, PenangTuaPui of PenangTuaPui and Criz Lai of Criz Food. And final thanks to Ah Shui of Ah Shui's Little Kichen for the lovely brownies.

And so the fun began 7.30pm last Saturday at Edelweiss along Armenian Street......For a full review, please check out Criz Lai's blog.






I also caught the famous Chan Lilian spotting a red t-shirt advertising her website-The Obnoxious 5xmom. Other notable floggers present were Allan Ooi, BuzzingBee, Durian Berry, Nick Chan and many more.



Deliberately blurred out shots of floggers in action. Looks like the sausages are taking all the attention from the lady. Must be one hell of a impressive sausage!





We floggers are one shy lot. We like to take pictures of food but on the other hand we are quite camera shy. Notice they always have their backs to the camera.....




Hmm. Makes me wonder if we are any different from these special ops guys (courtesy of http://www.eliteukforces.info/).



Or these guys. By the way, check out his piece. It makes you think twice about messing with them (courtesy of ikashmer.net). With friends like these, who needs enemies?


So...if you really want to get to know us better (up, close and personal), check out our websites regularly for posting for the 3rd floggers gathering. It's tentatively agreed to be held on 6 December somewhere.....the venue will be confirmed at a later date.

I believe 6 Dec is just a tentative date. Nonetheless, if you are up in Penang before then, let us know. We might be able to round up the others for a smale scale gathering:)
