Soy @ G Hotel

Soy is G Hotel’s newest restaurant, opening its’ doors just this Monday. It’s so new I didn’t even know of it’s existence and when I was told to go for lunch at G Hotel, I thought I was going to the Japanese Restaurant, Miraku!
Soy is actually one part of the restaurant. The other part is [...]

Adzuki Mania @ Starbucks

I must admit I am a Starbucks fan. It is my sanctuary when I need a quiet place to relax over a cup of steaming Caramel Macchiato. It is also my hang out, a place to catch up with friends over cups of Green Tea Frappucinos and Ice Shaken Tazo Lemon Zen. And of course, [...]

Expectations vs Disappointment

Another non food topic again today.
Am rather disappointed today, feeling rather let down and neglected by a friend, who had earlier promised to do something for me. But now it seems like he can’t fulfill that promise.
I suppose its only natural to feel some disappointment because expectations were there. And its natural to have some [...]

Tua Pui Curry Mee & O Kio @ Weld Quay

One of my favourite Curry Mee stalls in Penang is located along Weld Quay just outside the stall owner’s house. If you are travelling with the jetty on your left, Tua Pui (hokkien for ‘fat’) Curry Mee stall is further down from the jetty, after the Shell station, on the opposite side of the road.
There [...]

Lorong Selamat Char Koay Teow

Char Koay Teow is definitely one of the must eats when one visits Penang. And Penang is blessed with many places that serve really good Char Koay Teow, one of them being the famous (or rather ‘infamous’) Lorong Selamat Char Koay Teow.
This place seems to be very popular amongst tourists. And sometimes I wonder if [...]

Balik Pulau Laksa!

Continuing my adventure from the Balik Pulau durians, my friends and I headed off in search of laksa. Usually, people will go for the laksa at Balik Pulau market. But my friend told me, ‘Cannot, must go to the one at someone’s house one. Nicer.’ I’ve heard of this famous laksa before but have [...]

Balik Pulau Durians!

Over the weekend, I had the chance to go to Balik Pulau for some durians! A friend knows the owner of a durian orchard, and so organized for us to go eat unlimited amounts of durian, all for only RM12!! Although I’ve loved durians for as long as I can remember (I [...]

Dragon-i @ Queensbay Mall Penang

Oooh…finally Dragon-i makes its debut in Penang! I’ve only tried it once in Midvalley KL and absolutely fell in love with their “Xiu Long Bao”. So I was absolutely dying to go to the new outlet in Penang and managed to pay them a visit on Wednesday.
First things first, Dragon-i is located on the 2nd [...]
