Ferringhi Garden Restaurant

Ferringhi Garden Restaurant @ Batu Ferringhi, Penang. 19 July 2009

    As I can see, Ferringhi Garden Restaurant diners, most of them are tourists. So the foods price will be a bit expensive due to the market targets. The environment was great, more closer to natural style. When you walk in to the restaurant, you will feel that you are walking toward to a “gardens”. Two thumbs up for the interior concept.

Roti Bakar Kopitiam

Roti Bakar Kopitiam @ Penang Times Square, Penang. 14 July 2009

    Never visit the Roti Bakar Kopitiam near USM before. This is my first visit to this kopitiam and this is the new branch at Penang Time Square. As decided earlier with my colleagues, we will having lunch there today. Overall the food is tasty and nice. If you already tedious with Old Town Coffee, you can try something new here and which is  more near to home make style.
    Unfortunately, we got a bad experience today. My colleagues ordered the Nasi Lemak Hijau. She told me that the nasi Lemak Hijau is special and nice. While we are waiting our Nasi Lemak Hijau, the manager told us that the Nasi Lemak Hijau was “burn”. So they can’t served us today. So we just ordered other foods. Very bad thing happened !!! During the billing, they still charge us the nasi lemak hijau for around RM 18 ++. When my colleague reach the office, she only found out that the bill was mistake and over charge. So she just rush back to Penang Time Square from Northam Tower. OMG !!! So next time during the billing, must check the bill clearly and carefully, if not you will spent some extra petrol and times for the extra billing.

Honey Chicken Steak Rice RM 6.30

DAORAE Korean BBQ Restaurant (Revisit)

DAORAE Korean BBQ Restaurant @ Bayan Point. 13 June 2009

    Celebrate  father day at Daorae. As expected old peoples cannot accept korean food or japanese food. Their feed  back is so so only. This time I ordered the Kimchi Mari Gooksoo. The cold Kimchi Gookso was awesome. I think not everybody can accepted this, for me it was OK.  First time took a “cold” soup. Something new …. For the side dish, they not give me the vegetables pancake. I miss it so much…..

Smoky Jack Ribs & Steak House

Smoky Jack Ribs & Steak House @ Upper Penang Road ,Penang. 11 June 2009

    We are celebrating one of my colleague birthday, she told us that she prefer to celebrate her birthday lunch here. Overall the gentlemens is quite satisfy with the lunch, some of the ladies claim that it was so so only. For me I will rated it 4/5 star. The environment and interior was excellent. The interior is more toward to natural type. I believed that  the Smoky Jack owner had invested quite a lot of money on the interior, but worth for it . I think…… in term of environment, this is my second favorite…first one still belong to the Sire.  But in term of foods, Smoky Jack are slightly better. Just my opinion…….

Ko Fu Loft @ Gurney Plaza,Penang. 06 June 2009

    Before watching the movie, we having our dinner at Ko Fu Loft. Since we not sure about what food should we order. So we asked the manager recommended us. He introduced us the Osmanthus Tea and All In one with meat & Vegetable.
Osmanthus Tea

Osmanthus Tea RM 5.90

    Osmanthus Tea is nice, the smell is good. When you drink it you will feel it at your throat. But I am sleepless after having this tea :( .
All In one with meat and Vegi

All In one with meat and Vegetable RM 19.90

    All In one with meat and vegetable, the taste is good but the portion is a bit small. Those meat and vegetables is not so expensive foods, but the amounts is a bit little. May be due to the expensive rental, I think.

DAORAE Korean BBQ Restaurant

DAORAE Korean BBQ Restaurant @ Bayan Point. 04 June 2009

    Another Korean Restaurant have arrived to Penang since June 2009. As I knew, Penang island got around 5 to 6 Korean restaurants only. The one at Gurney Sunrise is not bad but the prices a bit expensive. DAORAE Korean BBQ Restaurant, sound like they are expertise in BBQ. Will try their BBQ next times. This round will try the most basic food first, as I like to said, if basics one also can’t handle it…..others food really not dare to try already.

Canton-i

Canton-i @ QBM. 16 January 2009

    When I visit here, it was just opening for around one or two weeks. When I wrote this post, I have visited this restaurant for around three times already. After came back from HK, I found out that this restaurant taste is more near to HK “real taste” and what should the HK food taste should be. 5 “pao” rice which consist of chicken wing,fried pork, tau fu, egg and imported octopus, overall quite worth and nice. The rice taste is a bit differ and don’t know how to describe. You need to go there find out your self. Taste cannot be share. The wanton soup taste is a bit pure and no taste at all, just same as the one I took at HK before. Canton-i really a “truly hong kong”. The wanton was nice and you can found a big prawn inside. Yummy Yummy. The most disappointed is the mango dessert, I can’t feel any mango taste on the mango dessert. OMG, I will not order this for my second times. Will introduce other nice HK foods on my future post.

Lam Mee

    After working hours just meet my friend and having dinner together. My friend ordered the toasted bread with egg. He claimed that it was so so only. I ordered vientnam coffee and lam mee. The vientnam coffee was just ok for me only. I drink once or twice at new wing damansara before, but I forgot the restaurant name. That one was more nicer. The lam mee is impress me, not bad. A bit special also, feel like having koay tiun soap. As you can see the soup is served with more than half bowl, normally lam mee soup is a bit only. Overall the food there was just ok, but the environment was nice. You can enjoy the sea view with the free cold wind and having a paided hot coffee. Need to enjoy life sometimes !!!!
    Remarks: My camera send back to Canon for repair, this pictures is took by using my Nokia N73. So the picture quality is just ok only.
