vkeong writes: Northam Beach Cafe is a nicer type of hawker center in Penang along Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah. It is located right next to a beach hence the name. Northam Beach Cafe utilizes the open air concept so you could enjoy the wind coming from the sea. And because of the nice location, decoration and ample free parking space it is popular with the locals and tourists alike. The food, however is pretty much the same with the other hawker centers. But the mua chee here is quite special so it deserves a mention. Mua chee is my favorite snack when I was small. Who wouldn’t love that chewy ... read more

vkeong writes: Another famous food in Bukit Mertajam is the Malay Char Koay Teow, or also known as Koay Teow Goreng Basah. This is the first Malay food in my food blog so you can be rest assured of its tastiness. Bukit Mertajam is the place where this variant of char koay teow originated. It is so well received that many have taken the opportunity to setup their own char koay teow stalls in Penang. Abang Is’ Malay Char Koay Teow’s ingredients include thin flat rice noodles (koay teow), beansprouts (taugeh), egg, lots of cockles (si ham) and huge sized fresh prawns. I have to admit ... read more

vkeong writes: I’ve been longing to try Dragon-I but have been put off by the expensive price of the food. It was not until I received my second Advertlets payout then only I decided to dine in Queensbay’s Dragon-I. Seriously, Dragon-I has a very good marketing strategy. They put up a glass before the entrance at all restaurants where you can see the chefs prepare noodles and meat dumplings. It always draws passer-bys and I am always one of them. So, kinda happy that I get to fulfill my curiosity finally. And the meal can be considered free because of the extra money, lol. Steamed meat dumplings (siu ... read more

Tummythoz writes: Belated rant in writing:- To my utter disgust, the climbing crime rate in our country has robbed me of a languid CNY (Chinese New Year) holiday ritual. For the past years, we would happily do the rounds at the temples on CNY’s eve from midnight until the small hours in the morning. This is rewarded by getting to laze into late mornings at home on the 1st day of CNY, avoiding traffic and most read more

vkeong writes: As a food blogger I have never bloggged about one of the most eaten food in Malaysia, chicken rice. Reason is, I couldn’t find any chicken rice stalls in Penang that stands out from the usual ones I visit regularly. Even those which are claimed to be nice or famous by others aren’t that nice actually. So, I am here to introduce one of the nicest chicken rice stall in Bukit Mertajam - Ah Choon chicken rice. I have been eating here since high school and the quality remained as good. Ah Choon chicken rice can be found in 838 coffee shop in Taman Mutiara, just behind Sunshine ... read more

team bsg writes: Curry mee is one of the most popular noodle dishes of all time in Malaysia. Probably the most colorful too. And if anyone dares to remotely suggest a best curry mee he better be really prepared for the proverbial bazooka counter-attackes ( especially from those aggressively unforgiving Hokkians from Penang ) .But hey we got only 2 days to Combat 8Mar08 so we fearlessly stick our necks firmly out...again for this is the best curry mee Classic orangee santany deep color, curving bean sprouts , fried tofu fritters , those 3/4 raw cockles , boneless white chicken strands , succulent almost shelless prawns ,... read more

vkeong writes: Because Nasi Kandar originates from Penang, it is no doubt the best ones are here too. This dish has managed to do very well in Penang with restaurants coming up at every corner. And that’s even with the tough competition among Pelita, Kayu, Kassim Mustafa and many others. Recently I have moved away from dining in these chain restaurants because of the expensive price. Shariff Nasi Kandar Istimewa in Gelugor has got to be one of the cheapest nasi kandar stall in the whole Penang island. And because Shariff’s Nasi Kandar is not only cheap but also great tasting, many people would line up as early ... read more

Robyn Eckhardt writes: Curry and rice - such a pedestrian dish, especially compared with all else that's on offer in the gastronomic playground that is Bangkok. Sometimes though, it's a simple, old-time favorite like this that really hits the spot. Especially when served up in a simple, old-time shop in one of Bangkok's oldest neighborhoods. This isn't red curry or green curry or jungle curry or Penang curry, just gaeng kari muu - pork curry. Mild, a bit sweet, loaded with lemongrass, it reminds me of a time way waaaaayyy back when, before I'd traveled to Thailand and begun to cook Thai food at home, when I thought 'curry' was a single flavor derived from a jar labeled ... read more

vkeong writes: A while ago when I was talking to my lunchmates, they mentioned a mee goreng stall in Bangkok Lane that was featured in Ah Xian’s eatery program. I didn’t watch it so I can only listen to their description. From what I heard, seems like the cook can fry the mee goreng in a very unique way. He can stir fry the noodles and spin the wok at the same time, somewhat like a performance. And even the mee goreng’s presentation looks promising. But in my opinion, this is one of the overrated hawker food in Penang. Although the noodles look really appetizing, ... read more
