Tan Jetty, Penang

A random visit to Tan Jetty. This was our first time here. Before that we never know there are such place exist in Penang island. Besides Tan Jetty, there too Lee and Chew Jetty along the coastal.

Entrance of Tan Jetty

As a heir of Tan, we felt home as we enter the village. I guess this is the only place where we can find true friendly and hospitable in this city. People there live like a big family. Kind of hard to imagine these culture still exist in this century, especially in city.

We wonder where does the "chocolate cake" channel to..Hmm..better don't ask.

Is this how the Penang looks like in early 40's? Hmm..Could be. 

Good place for dating:)

Penang "water village" 

Penang, what a wonderful island to stay !

Taken by an European, nice shot. Thanks !

Thank God for family.

Welcome to Tan Jetty :p

Good place to visit and shooting. Besides, there is a well known home cook restaurant along the bridge. We shall try by next visit. 

Thank you Lord for bringing us to a such beautiful place. The creator of everything, indeed Your beauty is beyond all these. Proud to be Your beloved child.

Chao Taofu at Tang Steamboat & BBQ restaurant, Penang

I always proud of being a Penangite especially comes to food. Today we accidentally found this taiwanese restaurant in Ragoon Road. What attract us is the signboard - Chao taofu and ma lat steamboat. We never know there too chao taufu in Penang, what a surprise !! 

We were shocked with setting ! It totally gave us a very different feeling, something we had it while we were in Taiwan. Cozy and it is a good place for gathering. Not too quite and not too noise. hmm..sound like my statement quite contradict. 

Again to our surprise, this Tang Steamboat exist in this town for more than 13 years. The owner is a Singaporean while his wife is a Taiwanese. 

While waiting for the food..

Tang Steamboat serves buffet steamboat. The waitress is cute and friendly. Besides it only cost RM 26 per person, which is quite reasonable. 

Above are recommended and new dishes. There are many more choice in their regular menu. The waitress was trying to warn us as we order both spicy soup, ma lat and tom yam. 

To be frank, I don't like the tom yum. It doesn't taste like tom yum and the ma lat soup don't taste spicy. Maybe we are too use to take chile padi as snack at home. 

yum yum..

Teppan yaki fried dumpling, not too oily, just nice and crispy !

Beef slice, a must for steamboat

Chao taofu, lickin' good

For chao tau fu, I got to say that it is the best compare with what I had in Cheras, KL and Shilin night market, Taipei. The surface of chao taofu is crispy while inner is juicy. Not like Cheras night market, too dried and it taste like biscuit more than taofu. I will definately recommended this to a few friends. Again I feel so proud of Penang, even our chao taofu is much better than others. shiok sendiri again..hei hei

what a satisfy Saturday nite

Tiramisu Ice-cream cake, making the dinner even more perfect !!

Chao taofu, I shall come back again

All of sudden, my mind came across this fact-My God is the god who is able to turn the worst condition to a good outcome. After the destruction of Babel Tower, there came Chinese. Without the invention of Chinese, there will be no chao taofu exist. Cheers to my God !

DAORAE Korean BBQ Restaurant

Eat and drinks section! Today we decided to take korean food since Nikki never have it before. This was my third time been to Daorae korean bbq in Tanjung Bungah. As usual, while waiting for food, taking picture is the things we love to do. In fact,I will only do this with Nikki...maybe she is my sis.. that's why I can be who I am, a real me.

Too much beef for the past few days. Hence for the first time bbq, we dint order beef but chicken and lamb instead. The funny part was waiter kept recommended pork. Maybe pork is nice but never been our consideration list. He was surprised as we told him we anti-pork.

                                              The marinated lamb is much nicer than chicken.

                         Having so called " seaweed soup" which is birthday soup for Korean, i guess..

hmm..cute pic, nice shot..taken by ME !!  haha

Overall the food is nice and reasonable price. Besides they do provide a very good service and side disher.

Santorini Cafe

Welcome to Santorini Cafe

Having a simple lunch with friends after Jo's engagement. This was my first time here. Kind of shock with the interior design as the outlook of the restaurant looks like an another "ordinary" cafe. Nothing so special, so to speak. Maybe this is what " don't judge a book by it's cover" means.

Kocha Taiwanese Delight >>Ferry Ride >> Dreaming at Autocity

One of my greatest blessing in Penang is about them- Priscilla, Jocelyn, Evelyn and Ruby. We know each other since we were Form 1. Since then, we love to hang out together, doing thing together, gossip together, etc. At once, we lost track of each other. Especially during uni. Different uni and everyone was busy with their own life. We could only get closer when everyone came back to Penang. It happen after our graduation and also my move to Penang. Kinda perasan..hei..actually I'm the driver since Form 5. This practice never change though some of them do own a car right now. Anyway, I do love to drive them around. It is a blessing indeed.

Friday night. Food hunting night. This week, we went to Kocha Taiwanese Delight. Well recommended by Priscilla. I love the atmosphere and the decoration. It seem like having dinner in one of Taiper restaurant. Typical chinese decoration. Besides order dinner set, we do order some snack to sactisfy our fresh desire.

Beef Noodles Set- could be better if it is spicy

Seafood Noodles- since like Ruby love fishball alot.

Spare Ribs Noodles

Dumpling Noodles Set

Iron Egg- Apparently this is mild steel egg, not really hard. Just nice for us.

Fried mini bun (chinese bun) - nice, we order two for this.

Seafood Roll

Fried Tofu - It could be better if they make it into smaller pieces

Funny mug @_@

Overall the food and atmosphere are good. Reasonable price. To my shock, the boss is a taiwanese. No wonder the way  they shout " huan ying guang lin" sound so familiar.

This week, Jocelyn baked us some chinese new year cookies. Next week will be Evelyn. which means in two weeks time I have to prepare something for them also. Stress man !

Jocelyn ,the chemist proudly brought us cornflakes cookies !! Thumb up !

After dinner, it was about 1030pm. Too early for us to go back, hence someone came out an idea-ferry ride.

Princess Ferry

We got nothing better to do besides posting around

Upper deck of ferry

Once we parked our car at lower deck, everyone seem rushing for "natural call". Since there is one washroom for female, we had to take turn. When it came to my turn, ferry was approching mainland. Everyone is ready in their car. We were so hurry to get in our car because our car parked at the second row. The ride took less than 15minutes ! Since when our ferry turn to high speed ferry ?!

Go Dutch, ruby is doing calculation for our bill.

After the ride, we decided to go Autocity for a drink. By the time we reach there was about 1am. Most of the shops were closed. We end up at "Dream" since it will close at 3am.

Lengthy calculation huh ?!

ACTION-NYA..haha

Since it was Thaipussam, i have myself a Pina Colada.

What a spontaneous night. Lord, thanks for the programs and friendship :)
