FOOD: China House, Georgetown, Penang.

Hello there! I get so annoyed about what to say in the opening, you know the opening speech is the most important part to attract readers to continue reading and all, and I am so lacking in this opening speech thing. Bahh... Whatever..

Back to 3 weeks ago, bf & I planned a getaway to Penang, to hunt for some food. and today I am going to talk about China House that I have craved so badly for when I was planning this whole Penang trip. 

 

I'm not sure if you can see the right picture cause of the reflection (try to enlarge the pic) but China House is a very very long cafe. The shop isn't big but LONG. In case you cant see it, I will explain it now. The shop is divided into 3 parts: The Canteen (lunch & dinner), Kopi C (breakfast, lunch & dinner) and BTB Restaurant (Dinner).

We had our breakfast, and the biggest advice from me, do not go for the breakfast. I mean...if you want, I can't stop you but there is only a few choices for their breakfast, fingers also can count it all. 

And most of the people will only come for lunch or after. My bf & I were like "dayumm', should have come for lunch" because there is way too many choices for lunch compared to breakfast.

Nevertheless, we enjoyed our glorious breakfast. You will be surprised with the price, nevermind nevermind, keep calm and stay cool. 

Nawww just joking :P

The everyday 30 cakes!

Over 30 different cakes, we chose tiramisu, because....... WE JUST FOLLOWED THE TIPS from SWARM, LOLOLOLOL

Oh wait, before I show you all the food photo, lemme post a pic of me first, TA-DAH!

Hot Chocolate RM11 - It didn't taste much like a chocolate drink for me. (I just realize the art 0.0 woaaww)

Iced Latte RM11

Banana Bread RM14 - At least it tasted like banana cake, not bad! 

Big Breakfast RM32 - Holy! I don't know if this is a china-western style of a big breakfast, it clearly didnt look like the "big breakfast" we normally have in KL. 

It comes with breads, eggs, chicken, lamb and some idk what sauces. 

I regretted ordering this much because we still have our Tiramisu, I wish I can cancel it but hell no, the cake is what I wanted the most!

Tiramisu RM15 - It's pretty much like alexis's tiramisu but cheaper lah. It was huge, maybe you cannot see in pic, but yes it was huge. 

Total bill after gov & service charges: RM96.30. IDK you guys but for me, breakfast that costs RM96? Thats hella crazyyyy man.

Then we walked around the looooonggg shop.

153 & 155 Beach Street, Georgetown, Penang.

Tel: 04-2637299

Opening Hours: Sun-Thurs 9am-Midnight, Fri-Sat 9am-1am.

Have a nice day,

Love, Winnie!

CELEBRATION: Birthday & Farewell @ Serai, Empire Shopping Gallery

This post is dedicated to my beloved friend // granddaughter who will be flying later at 11.59pm to Louisiana, US. First of all, I am so sorry that I am not able to send you off and sing "all I want by Kodaline" with the chore we talked earlier (HAHA?) Anyhow, I am still here at my home wishing you to have a safe flight and all the best in US, be safe all the time. OKAY? (please reply me OKAY) after you view this and have landed safely.

We celebrated her birthday as well as her farewell in a malay fusion restaurant, seriously out of our expectations. Normally we will only pick western, korean or something else, but for sure not malay. However, I feel it was quite a great choice, at least she got to enjoy a malay styled meal before flying to US. 

Fortunately we made reservation before heading there, seriously aint no joke as the line in Serai is absolutely crazy. 

Left: Minted Calamansi Soda (RM10.50) - Soda with crushed mint leaves & calamansi.

Center: Serai Blended (RM10.50) - Ice blended with lychees & lemongrass extract. (worse, tasteless)

Right: Serai Iced Tea (RM12) - Lemon sorbet, lemongrass extract and a hint of fresh mint. 

Nasi Kerabu (RM22) - Blue-tinted rice served with ayam percik, salted egg, ulam, solok lada & keropok ikan. (my friends loved this the most, but I hate this the most, I just really don't like it).

Beef Rendang Penne (RM23) 

Thai Mango Kerabu (RM15) - with dried cuttlefish, birds eye chilli & crushed peanuts.

Tom Yum Seafood (RM8) - Choice of serai's homemade tom yum paste or clear broth. (not the best tom yum :( )

Middle Eastern Medley (RM45) - Moroccan lamb shank cooked to perfection, served with spiced rice, cucumber raite and signature Turkish relish. (I know this is super expensive, but its huge and da bomb!)

Deepfried salted egg squid (RM20)

Nasi Ambang (RM20) - white rice served with portions of prawn sambal, beef rendang tok, ikan kering, fried noodles, mixed vegetables & tempe.

Because the princess saw someone ate ABC (and all of us thought it was a cendol), so I went to order a cendol (ended up not what we saw) & red velvet (supposingly order pavlova but sold out) for her :( HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN ADVANCE.

We just wanted a group photo then the waiter insisted us to stand in front of their restaurant with their shop name to take a group photo =.=

and there goes the photobomber at the back.  

Then we became their ambassadors.

*********************************************************

Last but not least, I hope you can read this when you arrive there. Those geli geli words no need to say lah, keep it in your heart, I will see you soon? May your smiles brighten up the angmos there and remember bring one back :P

Have a nice day!

Love, Winnie.
