#TrySomethingNew: Eating our way around Penang
Getting into Penang was hard. My flight got rescheduled and delayed, immigration took at least 1 hour, and my Uber to the guesthouse was weird. But nothing could stray me away from the thought of having laksa the next day.
Although, I might have pictured it to taste so much better in my head.
- Bora Bora, a bar at Batu Ferringhi which unexpectedly serves decent food and keeps their long island iced tea super stronk
- Dimsum place near Jalan Pintal Tali where we cycled the whole of Georgetown for (lol)
- Teochew assam laksa and rojak. Apparently rojak was just ok, and assam laksa tasted so much better in my head?
- Random rojak from a van at Miami Beach. Definitely not as nice as Miami.
- 3rd plate of the assam laksa I once fell in love for. I miss that feeling.

Tostilocos are a mess. A delicious, crazy mess. A popular street food developed in Tijuana in the 1990s, tostilocos are best described as the tasty brainchild of a Mexican stoner. Essentially chips (i.e., Tostidos) are topped with fresh cucumbers and jícama, cacahuates japonéses – a sweet-and-savory coated peanut snack popular in Mexico – and whatever else you have on hand, and then dressed with sweet/spicy/sour chamoy.
Cacahuates japonéses, a popular Mexican snack, are hard to come by in NYC. Honey-roasted peanuts on the other hand are sold by street vendors throughout the city.
There are no rules to making tostilocos but our version contains a few regional variations. We start with a base of Garden of Eatin’s Red Hot Blues, blue corn tortilla chips dusted with cayenne pepper. Cacahuates japonéses are hard to come by in NYC but that’s not the case for honey-roasted peanuts which are available from street vendors throughout the city. You can find jícama, a root vegetable which must be peeled before eating, at many grocery stores though it can be replaced by green apples which has a similar flavor. Chamoy is what ties all the ingredients together. Regular hot sauce lacks the sweet and sour notes of chamoy and isn’t a great substitute.
Jícama, also known as Mexican yam or Mexican turnip must be peeled before eating. It has a crunchy texture and mild flavor similar to apples.
Here are our suggested ingredients for tostilocos:
• Blue corn tortilla chips
• Diced cucumber
• Shoe-stringed jícima or green apple
• Cacahuates japonéses or honey-roasted peanuts
• Red onion, minced
• Jalapeño, seeded and minced
• Chicharrón (pork rinds)
• Fresh cilantro, minced
• Chili powder
• Lemon juice (see below)
• Chamoy
Build a plate of tostilocos layer by layer, squeezing chamoy over the ingredients as you go. Squeeze lime juice over cucumber, jícima and/or green apple before tossing with other ingredients.

The best falafel wrap from Falafelo.syrianfood at the street food festival
New Bohemia. MPLS
New York is a city of amazing camera fodder–I’m so happy with the shots I got there. I’d like to go back in the spring or late fall when it’s not quite so muggy.

Sao Miguel, Azores
Hot Dog stop on the other side of the street in front of the abandoned hotel. Still in the middle of nowhere…. Any hungry ghost buster around?
