« Previous EntriesThe Eclectic Lounge & Restaurant @ Batu Ferringhi
Sunday, August 17th, 2008It could only be described as sheer excitement when I read Gill Gill’s post last weekend about The Eclectic. For I did mourn the closing down of the beloved 68 Kelawei early this year and have been looking out for it ever since at Hydromajestic Hotel (for there were rumours that it would reopen at […]
Annabelle’s Place @ Lembah Permai, Tanjung Bungah
Wednesday, August 13th, 2008In the heart of the new Casa Permai 2 housing area is a row of shophouses built by Boon Siew Group.
And it is here that a number of eateries have opened its doors, one of them being Annabelle’s Place.
Annabelle’s Place is very prettily decorated, with quaint white chairs and pretty fairy lights. We went on […]
The Sire Museum Restaurant @ King Street, Penang
Sunday, June 15th, 2008I couldn’t resist deviating from my China Gourmet Tour Series yet again, to blog about this exciting new place in town!
Located along King Street (opposite the new Great Eastern building and across the road from Dewan Sri Pinang) is this elegant, charming restaurant serving ‘the best of Old & New World Cuisine’. The name itself […]
Home Made Chicken Pie
Thursday, May 8th, 2008Apologies for the lack of updates of late. Have been traveling quite a bit, and I will be flying off again next week (and coming back with more yummy food photos to show! Hint: Gourmet Tour )
Anyway, my family and I recently discovered this lady who makes chicken pies for sale from her home […]
David Brown’s Restaurant @ Strawberry Hill/Penang Hill - Part 2
Thursday, April 3rd, 2008Ah…here comes the food! Continued from my previous post.
Upon walking into David Brown’s restaurant, we were brought to our table… and it was a sight to behold! Those chairs are really comfortable by the way… perfect for chillin’ out after a scrumptious meal, sipping teas and just enjoying the nice cool weather!
We browsed through their […]
David Brown’s Restaurant @ Strawberry Hill/Penang Hill - Part 1
Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008Over the weekend, I finally had the chance to visit David Brown’s Restaurant up on Penang Hill. A blog reader had previously told me about this place and I have been wanting to go ever since. A group of us took the tram up on a Sunday. Its been soooo long since I went up […]
Pizza R Us @ Tanjung Tokong
Friday, February 22nd, 2008I drove by Prima Tanjung shoplots (opposite Island Plaza) at Tanjung Tokong recently and spotted a new eatery outlet next to Watsons and Hong Leong Bank. With its bright red words “Pizza R Us” against black background, the signboard is hard to miss.
My first thought was, “aiyah why go and ‘ciplak’ (copy) people’s name […]
Paddington House of Pancakes @ Queensbay Mall
Monday, February 4th, 2008I first discovered Paddington House of Pancakes at The Curve in Mutiara Damansara a few years back. I immediately fell in love with the place and the food. After that, my friends and I have enjoyed many a cup of hot chocolate there, as we exchanged gossip and laughs over stacks of wonderful pancakes.
At that […]
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 […]
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 […]
