This is a old cafe hidden in one of the tiny lane in the heart of Georgetown. The specialities of what the cafe serves are the bread with kaya and butter, half boiled egg and kopi. That’s all for the cafe, it’s a local breakfast. Though, I had it for brunch today.

The little cafe is located right opposite this shop lots at the head of Campbell Street.

Toh Soon Cafe is the name. This has already been around for quite some years and this was my first visit to me. Thanks to mom for taking me here.

There’s nothing much you can order. It’s just bread with butter and kaya paste but there’s a variety of bread to choose from. What they have today were hainan bread, chocolate bread and coffee marble bread. It’s either steam or toasted and then put on some kaya paste and butter on it.

Try out some local Kopi Peng (Ice coffee with condensed milk), it’s quite nice.

There’s the half boiled egg. One that they are using just normal eggs instead of Omega3 eggs like in Old Town.

Here comes the bread. First up was Hainan bread, with kaya and butter inside. The bread was steamed so that it’s soft when it’s eaten. It’s not nicely served so the bread in the photo is a little bit ugly but it’s nice to eat.

Then we got chocolate bread and coffee marble bread with the same thing inside.

My personal favourite is still the hainan bread beacuse its softness.

If I’m not mistaken, they sell until mid afternoon. So you can have your afternoon tea there too.

Well, mom cooked Pei Dak Shao Yuk Chok / Pi Dan Shou Rou Zhou or known as the duck egg and pork porridge today for dinner. I’m not really a fan of porridge, are you?

Mr Pot Cafe is a 24 hours cafe/restaurant at the Gurney Drive seafront. Selling local, western food, beer, coffee and snacks. It’s a nice spot to sit down to watch football at night and there’s also free wifi at the cafe so you can bring along your laptop to surf the net. The place is a nice spot to hang out because it’s by the sea and it’s always windy.

Recently, they have opened another outlet at Upper Penang Road.

So, I went to Mr Pot Cafe to have my breakfast last Sunday morning with dad and mom. Brought along my laptop to do a little bit of IM and surf the net.

Ordered a glass of blended white coffee with whipped cream on top. This taste good and it’s better than Old Town, most probably because of it’s blended and there’s whipped cream.

Here’s what I’ve ordered for myself, a English Breakfast (RM6.80) on the menu which consist of an egg, few short sausages, a ham, baked beans and breads. What I gonna say is, I love the sausage, I love the ham. In addition, the bread is nicely toasted too, making it a little crispy.

There’s a variety of food on the breakfast menu, there’s also local food too. I am going to try others next time.

Do you know there’s hawker stall by the roadside of Jalan Mt Erskine? It’s just after the Mt Erskine wet market and the Taoist temple. Well, it’s near to my place so I do visit there for lunch some times. There’s 2 food that I like at there, the chicken rice and laksa.

Chicken rice is nice, the char siew is nice but the siu yok/sio bak is not nice. From what I’ve known, the chicken rice stall closed after 2pm because mostly by that time, they have already ran out of chicken.

This is always my combination, a chicken rice and a bowl of assam laksa. It can be said that it’s one of the nice laksa in this area. It’s not too sweet like the one near Penang Chinese Girls High School, just nice. Good one. =)

The food stalls only operate during lunch time until tea time, there’s also economy rice, fried indian noodle, cahr koay teow, desserts and more.
