One of my ex-colleague who lost contact for more than a year suddenly IM me. She now works in KL and she still knows my latest status by reading my blogs :shy: At least now I know I got some loyal “divers” (those visited but rarely leave comments) and this encouraged me to write more. Anyway, this is an old but not-bad Nyonya restaurant I visited in Malacca during last Xmas holiday – Bayonya.
Char Moey (Fried Porridge) – A dish hard to find in some areas, is now available in Tanjung Tokong . Unlike normal porridge, it is mildly fried to brown color with pork and the fragrant from wok. I was introduced by my friend to try it one day.
My relatives returned from Australia and would like to try seafood. From my memory, good seafood with reasonable price in Penang island usually don’t have aircond. Most probably you will end up standing with left hand holding crab, right hand holding hammer, with a tuala on your shoulder to absorb sweat. After deep consideration, I ended up inviting them to Everyday Supreme located inside Red Rock Hotel.
Wong Chau Jun 王昭君 was one of the four pretty girls in Chinese ancient time (they are 豹蝉, 西施, and 杨贵妃). She was the wife of an emperor. Now, however, you can see her anywhere in the street, including Rangoon Road (the road between Abu Siti Lane and Lorong Selamat).
I just recovered from diarrhea when my friends and I went to Inaka – knowing them to have buy one free one on Salmon Sashimi (RM23.00). They looked fresh and thick. I knew it was not a good time for raw food but… HACK! Let’s kamikaze!
Sizzling Oyster (RM24.00)! It is oysters on a thin layer of egg put into a hot plate. Yummy~ I had tried many fried oyster around but not this one in Ocean Green Restaurant (海洋青海鲜楼).
It was one of the Wednesday when I enjoyed this “Rum Raisin” (my favorite) and “Maui Brownie Madness” (chocolate ice yogurt with fudge) double scope ice-creams from one of the Baskin Robbins outlets here at the price of only RM7.90.
Chinese New Year is all about re-union. A group of food bloggers, including me, were having “re-union” in one of the restaurants at D’Piazza, Bayan Baru. Food bloggers come and go (some gave up blogging, some simply :imdead: due to food poisoning). It would be grateful if similar faces are still there during new year.
If you ask me what I did during Chinese New Year, here the list:
Yes, it is all about eating, including this Zealand Bak Kut Teh which I visited during CNY at Gurney Drive.
Gong Xi Fa Cai! :gongxi2:
Chinese used to settle all debts before Chinese New Year, but not for my case. I have too many restaurant reviews in buffer, such as this one. As you may already aware, I went to Malacca for holiday last Xmas holiday. We departed at a whoppy 4am from Penang. You may think that we gone crazy, but actually we wanna pass by Ipoh for a Dim Sum breakfast before we continue our journey (We knew that it will be ultra mega crowded as early as 7:30am). As long as Ipoh is concerned, there are two restaurants worth considering – Foh San (富山) and Ming Court (明阁). We plan to “eat double” that morning but sadly Ming Court is closed on Thursday.
