Located at New Lane off Macalister Road, Penang, Sunway Hotel Georgetown is the fourth hotel we visited for Ramadan buffet preview session this year (and definitely not the last one). Is it just another hotel with Ramadan buffet? Do they have their own specialties? Let’s find out.
We continued our Ramadan buffet preview to G Hotel Kelawai – the new and stylish-redefined hotel at Jalan Kelawai, Penang (opposite of Gurney Drive).
Last year, we visited Vistana Hotel Penang for its Ramadan buffet. This year, we were fortunate enough to be invited again for the same buffet, namely Tok Wan 101 Recipes.
Ramadan is around the corner. This year, Eastin Hotel Penang – the business hotel in Bayan Lepas, Penang is the first hotel we visited for its Ramadan buffet, namely Eastin Ku – Kampung Ku preview session.
We couldn’t remember our last time visiting Penang Hill by train. Recently, we re-visited it again for David Brown’s Restaurant 8th Year Anniversary Promotion -the “Buy 1 Free 1” Set Dinner!
好味锅猪骨火锅 Hou Mei Wo Steamboat has its first outlet opened at Ipoh, followed by first branch at Menglembu and finally, second branch at Elit Avenue, Bayan Baru, Penang. This also marks the second steamboat (hot pot) restaurant in Elit Avenue. We were fortunate enough to visit it on its first day of opening, 1-June-2015.
Update 8-Jun-2015: The restaurant is closed.
Ma Ma Tei 麻麻地 in Cantonese means average. Is the food in Ma Ma Tei restaurant at Elit Avenue, Bayan Baru, Penang really tastes like it sounds? Let’s find out.
Prawn – a dish we seldom order because we are lazy to peel off the shell. We forgot when was our last time having prawn in restaurant, until we visited Chia Bee Restaurant 佳美河鲜美食馆 for a plate of Steamed Giant River Prawn w. Wine 酒蒸大头虾.
Our first encounter with Thai coffee was when we were in Changmai for holiday trip in year 2014. We visited Wawee for a cup of coffee while walking near university district. The coffee shop is similar to Starbucks with air-conditioned environment, soft music in the background and WIFI, allowing customers to online for various purposes. Today, we introduce you another Thai coffee – Doi Chaang.
Telur Ikan Masak Lemak – the daily special not found in the menu. This is not an ordinary fish dish as “Telur Ikan” means fish eggs and is cooked with coconut milk. The exotic fish egg has an unfamiliar “sandy” texture in which we believe most of us need some time to adapt to it. This is just one of 70+ dishes found in Eastin Hotel Penang.
