How was your Haji holiday? Sometimes, it was hard to decide a place to visit especially when the holiday falls on weekdays. After brainstorming, we decided to pay a half-day visit to Sungai Bakap/Nibong Tebal, with main purpose to try out the famous Chai Koay (dumpling) there.
Previously, we visited a seafood restaurant at Pantai Bersih – Lobster Village. It had only a few customers that time and made us worry at first but turned out to be a good experience. Thinking of trying other restaurants there, we visited 323 Seafood Restaurant this time.
Steamed Rice Noodle (RM2.50) – it was so plain that you can’t eat it on its own. Worse, no rice is provided at 王清发海鲜 Ong Cheng Huat Seafood at Bagan Lallang, Butterworth, Penang. Luckily, one of the food items we ordered was a perfect mix for this plain noodle.
Finally, a vegetarian Hor Fun (a.k.a 旅人河粉 J2L Hor Fun @ RM8.90) with Wok Hey (elusive flavour from hot and seasoned wok) . Moreover, it was topped with organic vegetables. This is just one of the specialities from low-profile vegetarian restaurant at Queensbay Penang – 旅人 Journey2Life.
Ahh~ what a nice carpet. The soft and smooth carpet makes you wanna lay on carpet instead of sofas. These are just few new additions in refurbished lounge @ Eastin Hotel Penang.
Eastin Hotel – a business hotel that Free Trade Zone (FTZ) managers like to allocate their foreign visitors here. Seriously I never visited their cafe, namely Swez Brasserie before. In October 2012, they are having new buffet theme called German Galore so we paid a visit to it (Chef above is Kelvin, the star of the day).
Nope, this is not an ancient Chinese temple but just one of many decorations in newly opened Tao Japanese buffet restaurant at Times Square Penang. This reminded me that it has been a while since I returned to Times Square, particularly nothing special there and was having bad experience with a guard there for shooting photos on their building (WTF?). Anyway, let’s go!
“Where to eat?”. “Let’s eat thai food!”. “Which thai food?”. “Thai food lah!”. “WHERE LAH!”. Having common name as restaurant name is easy to remember but at the same time hard to tell as well. Located next to Batu Lanchang’s famous market food court is a newly opened Thai food restaurant called… uh… thai food restaurant.
Ouch! We were a bit late for the sunset. The big red sun just disappeared from the horizon the moment we arrived at Lobster Village Seafood Restaurant at Pantai Bersih. Figure above shows the picture taken from the restaurant. The island on the left is the Penang island.
Selamat berpuasa! Looking for Ramadan buffet? From 30-Jul til 16-Aug 7pm to 10pm daily, visit Main Street Cafe in Cititel for Ramadan buffet at RM55++ (Adult). They even have buffet supper from 10:30pm – 2am (Right-click on figure above and “Save Link As”). Don’t ask me how’s the food taste like but I can share with you my recent experience with their “Japanese & Korean” buffet dinner every Friday.
