“Penang’s petite-bourgeois lifestyle is very exquisite.”
Hong Kong actress Maggie Cheung recently shared her journey to Penang on Xiaohongshu, expressing that “Penang’s petite-bourgeois lifestyle is very exquisite.”
Maggie Cheung said: “Wandering through the city’s alleys and streets, you’ll always come across delightful little shops. The French owner’s dedication fills the air as soon as you walk in!”
In her post, she wrote: “The variety of croissants and Canele absolutely touched me deeply. The taste is so good, so authentic, that even after a full meal, I couldn’t resist finishing them.”
The post mentioned that from strolling the old-town-style Love Lane, to feeling the sea breeze along Batu Ferringhi’s coast and enjoying relaxation, then stepping into unique cafes, savoring a cup of coffee and a moment of leisure.
The post pointed out that with historic districts, sunny shores, and individualistic coffee shops interwoven together, Penang’s charm is sometimes not about rushing to check off sightseeing spots, but rather slowing down and truly feeling the rhythm of life here.
