Roadside Tong Sui at Sungai Dua, Penang

I love traditional Chinese style desserts or more commonly known as “Tong Sui’ (directly translated from Cantonese as ’sugar water’). Unfortunately, these popular tea time snacks sold by vendors I know of are only available in the afternoons and finish by early evenings Continue reading

Popular Malaysian food – Nasi ayam equals fond memories

By: Adline A. Ghani I don’t know what it is about nasi ayam or chicken rice, but I’ve always had nothing but fond memories of it. When I try to draw up the memories, however, it’s a total blank, but my psyche tells me that the fond memories are indeed there Continue reading

Porridge

I will be the first to admit I seldom eat food that we normally associate and categorize loosely as “Chinese”. But porridge is one comfort dish that I could hardly say no to, on days where I am just too sick and tired to taste and to chew, and on days that are particularly cold and chilly. Continue reading

Sulaiman’s Famous Cendol, Pudu.

During a recent walkabout around the Pudu market (???) area, we were brought to this cendol stall in some alleyway off Jalan Pudu. Only after we were seated, we noted that many locals ordered their cendol in cantonese! Yup, the Indian uncle manning the stall speaks Cantonese Continue reading

Invited Review | Karaikudi Restaurant @ Market St – Part 2

We had the opportunity to attend a food review at Karaikudi Restaurant at Market Street last week and the experience of dining at this Indian Restaurant is something different compared to other reviews we have done. Despite having quite a lot of Indian Restaurants or eating outlets in Penang, we have to admit that we have less exposure about Indian Cuisine and there are still a lot of interesting facts about Indian food that we have not found out.  In the second part of the Invited Review, we will showcase the rest of the dishes that we have that time and save the best for last, a home made recipe (although not from Karaikudi) that gives us a lasting, “ sizzling ” impression Continue reading

Fu Sing Dim Sum, Hong Kong.

i actually heard about this place only after reading pinkpau’s “ guide to HK ” and was curious to see how it fared in comparison to the old school dim sum places recommended so I went to seek it out. Got out at the Wanchai MTR station to find that Lockhart Road is actually quite a long stretch, with tile shops, bathroom ware shops etc lining the road and we were on the wrong side (better to come out of Causeway Bay MTR station).
