The above picture is a mini bowl of yee sang for 1 person from Sushi King at this time of festivity. As for the tradition of eating yee sang during Chinese New Year, this is an invented “tradition” of the Chinese in Malaysia (and Singapore). Yee sang – a dish of raw salmon fish slices [...]
Life is stressful. Remedy? Just take ice cream. As for me, it is soothing to the throat and is cathartic, not that I take a lot. I happen to do some window-shopping and stumble upon this exciting ice-cream cake with cute faces and cone hats from Baskin Robbins. And I just couldn’t resist taking a [...]
Above is a picture of the salmon with rice that I had yesterday from Manhattan Fish Market in Queensbay, the recently opened megamall in Penang. This project has been stalled for a few years under Dr Mahathir’s rule and when Badawi took over the helm as Malaysia’s fifth prime minister, he made sure all the [...]
The above is another of my ordered dish recently at Chicken Rice Shop. It is called Pie Tee which is julienned turnips and carrots with mushrooms stir-fried together and put into a cup of fried battered crust. This is one of the Nonya food, the Straits Settlement Chinese recipe. We Chinese have a penchant for [...]
This was my dinner of a plate of green kale topped with shallots, soya sauce and oyster sauce from Chicken Rice Shop last night. As I don’t take rice to reduce carbohydrate intake, I only had vegetables and this was one of them. I guess to maintain the dark green color of the fresh kale, [...]
We had dinner last night in Chicken Rice Shop in the basement of Gurney Plaza where the food is. Above is what my sister ordered of a set of roasted chicken with rice, soup and bean sprouts (Picture will be shown later). It was tasty and originated from Chinese recipes and now taken over by [...]
Above was my dinner recently at a beach cafe in Penang. This is a relatively new stall that was opened and the food looks tempting with plenty of gravy. So, I ordered one and it was, quite tasty and delicious. The gravy was thick and sumptious with cabbages inside. Sometimes, it is good to order [...]
Above is a tantalizing picture of what my sister ordered in a beach café in Penang. It is a fish pot pie consisting of baked carrots, corns, mushroom soup, mushrooms, potatoes and fish slices covered by pie on a cup. It is a meal by itself and quite filling to the stomach. This used to [...]
The above photos were taken from my old collection that I dig out from my PC. They were taken in October where I went to The Cafe Restaurant in a local hotel in Penang for its buffet dinner. I loved the free flow of Haagan-Dazs ice-cream with different flavors. There were curry prawns, broccoli, cream [...]
A normal digital camera and some photoshop touchup surely make the foodie combo photos above look professional and enticing. Photo 1 shows two chocolate coated dough nuts sprinkled with green and yellow rice-bits of sugar of Dunkin Donuts bought along the highway back to Penang from KL. Photo 2 is my bamboo basket of 8 [...]
Photo 1 on the left is my tim sum combo for only RM10 per set or bamboo container of 8 pieces. This is a bit more expensive than the usual set of 3 prawn dumplings or known as har kau in Hokkien for RM3.20 or 80 cents each. The photo on the right, Photo 2 [...]
Last night, my boss and I had our dinner at this obscure hidden restaurant by the beach in a village. We got to know this little restaurant by word-of-mouth from my sister’s Intel colleagues. It was supposed to be my treat to my boss, but he ended up paying RM95 for the meal. I ordered [...]
Recently my partner boss and I went for dinner at Gurney Plaza’s Chicken Rice Shop at the basement beside the food court. I have taken some pictures as shown above. Photo 1 shows the roasted chicken that comes in a set with rice, soup, dessert (Photo 3), ‘taugeh’ (or bean sprout), pounded ginger and chilly sauce [...]
