It's an indisputable fact that Penang is the top food destination for foodies from all over the world. Now, it's also home to Malaysia's first ever food museum where - get this - you can actually play with the "food"!
Having recently opened its doors, Wonderfood Museum features a collection of larger-than-life and hyper-realistic food replicas of Malaysian delicacies, all created by graphic designer Sean Lau, who is also the owner of the museum
