It’s the only place where I would eat Tomyam Noodle at Prangin Mall. There’s actually 2 places that you can find Tomyam Noodle, it’s on the same floor one is at the Kopitiam and another one is here at Shua Shua Le steamboat on 3rd floor a few shop next to the comdom shop at the center of 2 building.

Although this is more expensive than the one at the Kopitiam (RM4.50), this is selling at RM6.20. The soup is obviously sweeter and more sour. Lovely as there’s many ingredient in it, fish ball, crab meat, vegetable, mushroom, prawn. Adding in some dried fried garlic, it makes the soup taste better. You can tried it too. It’s not too spicy, but once in a while, it’s really hot, though most of the time is good to eat.

Best thing I like about this restaurant is there’s no service charge and GST. =) So far, I’ve only tried the noodle there, but not the steamboat which the restaurant actually serves. I won’t try it anyway because I am not a fan of cook-my-own-food.

Just chant this in 4 seconds and you will get a free Big Mac. Of course, you need to buy any of the McValue Meal before joining the chant in 4 second contest. Well, I didn’t know about this at first. Last time I got a coupon that allow you to join the chant, but I threw it away because I got no idea what is it about. After checking out on the net, then I only knew that it’s something that give you freebies.

28th May is the last day that you can join the Big Mac Chant so be fast. I’ve already did mine a few days ago. I did it like in 3 seconds, I got a friend that can chant in less than 2 seconds, that’s really OMG.

On the net, people are recording video about them doing the Big Mac Chant, this will stand them a chance to win RM10,000. I should knew it earlier so I could have much time to prepare for the script, editing and voting. Though, don’t really mind right now as I already get my free Big Mac.

You might be thinking, “Don’t you eat ramen (a kind of Japanese noodle) at Ajisen Ramen?” Ah, no I don’t. You know, Ajisen Ramen is a pretty famous restaurant that serves Japanese food and ramen. However, I do not order rament on most of my visit to the restaurant because I don’t really spend a lot of this. I feel like the food at Ajisen Ramen is a bit expensive and the cheapest I got is this Chicken Teriyaki Rice set @ RM12.90 with a Misou Soup. It’s better for me to avoid going into this Ajisen Ramen at Gurney Plaza because it’s always the taxes etc. GST and Service Charges that cause trouble to us.

As far as I know, the outlet in Gurney Plaza is the only one Ajisen Ramen in Penang. Talking back about the Chicken Teriyaki, it’s quite a nice one. Chicken is quite crispy and nice to bite with but then the portion maybe a little small to me. Tasted like a but sweet and salty and it’s a good try. I think I’ve tried it a couple of time. =)

This restaurant is always on the end of my eating list, when really no other choice only then we get in here. Hehe.

It was raining in the afternoon and I was wet when walking to Gurney Plaza for lunch. Suddenly, I felt like eating those Hong Kong’s instant noodle or what they called it the Gong Zai Min 公仔面, with sausage, ham and egg. At first I walked to the food court to look for something cheap and then I remembered that the instant noodle meal at Kim Gary Hong Kong restaurant on the third floor is not very expensive too. So I went there myself.

It was so crowded during lunch time and I, a person waited for like 15 minutes until I get a seat. There’s no need for me go through the menu as I had already know what to eat.

As you might say, I can cook my own instant noodle at home. Though, I still can’t make it looks like the one I eat at Kim Gary. It has nicely cooked egg, a ham, a sausage and a fried chicken wing with mixed vegetables. The soup is cooked with sesame oil, it doesn’t taste like MSG that much but it’s better not to drink the soup.

For RM8.90++ for this set meal with a cup of drink, I ordered Ying Yeong (Hong Kong style coffee mixed with tea), what do you think?

Chopperboard Food Corner has been in Penang for many years already. It has various branch, one at Gurney Plaza, one at Tesco, one at Bukit Jambul and another is at Queensbay Mall. Well, I worked there as a part time waiter too for a couple of month but seriously the pay was really low. Though, I still go there to eat sometimes. It’s a place that serves low price food and something that can fill your stomach. Food may not be the best but still good to eat.

So far, the most meal I eat there is the Black Pepper Chicken Rice set which is at RM5 something and come with a glass of ginseng tea. This is definitely cheaper than eating out at Gurney Plaza’s food court or McDonald’s. It tasted sweet and a little of spicy sometimes, and serves with rice and half side of boiled egg. Not bad, I still eat it all the time.

Recently, I’ve been ordering this Chopper Soup as a side dish. It taste like Shark Fins Soup, it’s a artificial one but it’s nice, really. You can try it like put it on the rice and eat it together. A bowl of Chopper Soup and a Black Pepper Chicken Rice, simply full!

Everytime when mom drives past the Court house near Green Hall, for I’ll sure take a look at the Spice and Rice restaurant at the opposite of the new court house. I tell myself I gonna visit this restaurant one day in the future.

Taking a look at the interior, it’s very nice and classy looking restaurant in a old settlement building. Nicely decorated and with the soft jazz music playing, it feels like being in a high class restaurant and yes it is. It’s located at the corner of Green Hall and just right opposite of the court house.

At first, I thought this restaurant serves western cuisine and mom wanted try out the set lunch. Unfortunately, set lunch is served on weekdays only. After checking out the menu, only then I get a mind of it is a restaurant serving Indian cuisine. It was me and mom and we don’t really know what is nice and good. We don’t really know about Indian food but I’m sure I like it. The waitress was kind enough to do some recommendation to us. Everything is quite expensive, all are above RM10 per dish and rice too except for plain rice.

As usual being in a Indian restaurant, they serves a kind of biscuit as starter or appetizer. I don’t really it because it’s pretty salty.

Here is a Chicken Varuval. It’s dry with a lot of spices. It’s quite nice, the chicken is quite soft and not spicy at all. However the portion is pretty small.

As for this, this is not curry but actually vegetable. It’s called Vege Khajana. It’s assorted or mixed vegetable cooked in some sort of sauce which tasted a bit sweet and spicy. Mom likes this and putting it on top of rice is nice to eat.

We had a plain briyani rice and it’s good. The waitress said that it’s better to order a plain one than those that with chicken or meat in it.

Overall, it’s all nice but I felt it’s too expensive to me. It’s better to go there on the weekdays where set lunch at RM15++ is served. 2 dishes and a briyani cost 2 of us RM43.70. Woah. By the way, it’s a lovely place to dine at night and I like the environment a lot.
