A Penang food guide based on my personal views and tastes, archiving the great finds and the personal favourites, so that hopefully it will provide some answers to the question "where to eat?" Comes with dashes of recipes and rants & raves about life in general...Archive for November, 2007
Penang has Missy Donut!
Thursday, November 29th, 2007Yup, the donut craze has finally hit Penang! We don’t have J.Co donuts. Neither do we have Big Apple Donuts. But….we have…. Missy Donut!
Grand opening of Missy Donut today at Gurney Plaza, Penang…
I happened to be at Gurney Plaza today for lunch and saw that they were open. Unfortunately, they were only selling the donuts […]
The Apartment @ The Curve
Wednesday, November 28th, 2007I’ve been to The Curve in Mutiara Damansara a few times mainly to catch up with friends over coffee. And so, have not actually eaten at any of the eateries there except for Paddington House of Pancakes. On a recent trip to KL, I met up with a friend who suggested we try this quaint […]
Starbucks @ New World Park, Penang
Tuesday, November 27th, 2007After much anticipation, the new Starbucks outlet in New World Park is finally opened!
I must say that they’ve got a very cool location just right in front, facing the main road where everyone passing by the busy road can spot them.
I was so thrilled when I drove past yesterday and saw them open. Couldn’t resist […]
Gelatissimo (Very Yummy!) @ The Gardens, Mid Valley
Sunday, November 25th, 2007I go down to KL so often now that this is slowly becoming a Penang AND KL food blog! I suppose the food blogger in me never rests….
During one of my trips, I had very good gelato at Gelatissimo located on the lower ground floor of The Gardens, Mid Valley. I’m told that there is […]
Pasta Mania @ Gurney Plaza, Penang
Wednesday, November 21st, 2007One of the new outlets in Gurney Plaza is Pasta Mania. Located on the same floor as the cinema, Pasta Mania is where the old CD shop used to be, just outside the gym. Pasta Mania also has another outlet in Pavillion next to J.Co Donuts (which was why it looked familiar to me in […]
Mizi Bistro (Again!) @ New World Park, Penang
Thursday, November 15th, 2007Ever since Mizi Bistro opened its doors, I’ve eaten there about 5 times! One of THE places to go at the moment due to its value for money offerings and of course good tasting food. They also have an extensive menu and 5 times is definitely not enough to sample everything!
Here are what I’ve tried […]
Vote vote vote! NOW!
Tuesday, November 13th, 2007For our fellow food bloggers I mean….! (even if you’re not a food blogger also can vote la…)
They’ve made their videos and made it through the first phase….
And then they participated in the second stage which required them to travel from KL-Pg in search of food, and edited the videos in one night and […]
Shanghai Ding House of Dumpling @ New World Park, Penang
Tuesday, November 13th, 2007This is the second outlet of Shanghai Ding House of Dumpling. The first being the one at Bayan Bay next to Queensbay Mall. I have not had the chance to try the outlet there, but when it opened at New World Park, I managed to go on their 5th day of business.
Once again I didn’t […]
High-Tea @ Carcosa Seri Negara, KL
Thursday, November 8th, 2007I’m back from KL once again, so another KL foodie entry, though this one was from my previous trip…
I think my mouth dropped open when a friend oh so casually said “Let’s go to Carcosa Seri Negara for high tea’ . I then proceeded to say ‘Noooooo!!!’, so filled with anguish…because I didn’t bring my […]
Young Heart Restaurant @ Cantonment Road
Saturday, November 3rd, 2007I have been meaning to blog about this place for quite some time. One of my favourite places for a quiet meal when I need to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Getting there may still require you to battle some traffic, but once you get inside… it’s just peaceful! […]
