Heaven's Delight @ Penang Times Square

***This restaurant has since closed down***
Went times square just now for lunch , also , to visit the newly open supermarket--Sunshine City there ......so this restaurant is located at lvl 1 of times square and the restaurant's concept is based on the fusion style between japanese dishes and chinese.....but we prefer japanese food more so we ordered japanese stuff XD instead of the chinese......

Pls excuse me for the poor quality ....so this is salmon belly with some salmon eggs topping(rm25)......taste was like.............sushi........nothing else much to mention x.X

Some random bentos (rm20 and rm28).......my parents was too hungry , when i realised it , they ad started eating...lol.....so ended up the photos became like these , anyway , taste was just like normal bento and why do i say random , coz they written there in the receipt , 'bento A(rm20) and bento B(rm28)'...=.="

Now this is the best part of all......tongkotsu ramen(rm18).....as u can see there , a very huge portion of ramen and the creamy soup was just superb.....there will also be 3 slices of pork meat given as well.....din taste them as i don eat pork(quite tender according to my dad) but this ramen is simply tasty , tried b4 when they first opened but i din start to write my blog yet , so.....anyway , there are 4 types of ramen , the other 3 are spicy(never try b4 though)......in case u are craving for ramen , this 1 might be an good option for u =)

However , i found that the serving speed and the management of staff is kinda poor in this restaurant , inefficient staff might a problem too as they serve things slowly.....they took like 15 mins to take us a pot of greentea @.@......bentos , ramen , salmon don and greentea(rm8) all totalled up rm102.90 which inclusive a 5% of service charge

Shang Hai Ding Restaurant @ New World Park, Penang

Had lunch in this restaurant which serves shanghai style of cuisine.....its located in queensbay but not the shopping mall , instead , its those shop houses beside queensbay mall , u will locate it easily once u pass by the area as they got a gigantic advertisement board.....anyway , these are our orders :

Shanghai 'cong you'noodle (rm4.90), the sauce beside the noodle is some sort of peanut sauce i would say , it taste exactly like peanut butter !!! and surprisingly they work well together and the noodle is spongy and chewy =).....very nice overall

Yun Nam Rice Noodle (rm16.80).....this is a very special bowl of noodle i would say, its being served in a claypot just as wat u see above , the soup is tasty , the noodle is smooth and the fish slices are fresh too =) , just in case u are wondering , yes , the taste is kinda like 'fish head rice noodle' ,but a different form , and i would say that this is the best 'fish head rice noodle' i ever had XD

Some sort of custard pau in some stupid porcupine-design(rm 5.90)....very strong custard flavour and the skin for the pau is just ok....nothing much to mention

Some sort of desert (rm5.90)using mango and pamelo as ingredients and blend them with ice or so , we called it 'yang zhi kam lou' in cantonese....very smooth texture and its kinda sweet but i just love it =D

Needless to say....this is shanghai 'xiao long pau'(rm 10.80).....dumpling in other word.....as u can see , they actually contain soup inside all these dumpling and the sweetness inside the soup is awesome, upgrading the whole dish to the top :P .......ginger slices soaked in vinegar work perfectly with this kind of dumpling , this combination will eventually generate a very unique flavour when they were served together ,as the older generations said 饺子不放醋，吃起来像抹布so its quite hard to explain here , why not just try it urself folks =D

Bill totalled up rm40.15 including 5% of service charge if not mistaken (not too sure as i lost the receipt XP) and if u were craving for shanghai cuisine , i would recommend u guys to try this 1 out !!

DAO-RAE Korean BBQ Restaurant @ I-Avenue, Penang

Since my dad is on half-day today , so we decided to go for lunch together ,we brought my cousin bro as well as its school holiday now , we then headed to this restaurant which located in I-Avenue,Bukit Jambul (u can find this restaurant if u heading towards queensbay ,the Bukit Jambul roundabout)........so this is a korean BBQ based restaurant and obviously they serve BBQ and korean stuff XD......and i was amazed with their decoration and all the cooking utensils they erected........below are some shots on the deco :

The little pipe there was used to suck up all the smoke and the oily gases , and surprisingly it speeds up the burning of the charcoal , making our meat cooks faster 0.0 and they used charcoal for the BBQ part =D which i think its a very good idea as we all know that charcoal will give the meat a very special taste

So after we placed our orders , we were served with a bowl of soup which i think its cooked with some sort of seaweed which i found quite similar to the japanese style , and of coz , the taste is superb

Then , we were introduced to their appetizer(only be served free if u ordered the BBQ meat but not the steamboat or others) and various kinds of sauce that work with the meat ,its too long to tell about the taste but i like the kimchi the most as its sour and spicy at the same time but not too salty ,i think this is probably one of the best kimchi that i ever had , and just in case u are curious on wat is the sauce below the miso , its fried salt in herbs , in chinese , we called it 'hua yan'(mandarin) or 'wah yim' in cantonese

Pork Belly soaked in ginseng essence (rm30)......as u can see , 2 slices of the pork belly was grilled till perfect and the white thingy there was onion and a few cloves of garlics(soaked in olive oil) .....not really sure about the taste as i don eat pork =) , but my parents told me the pork belly don really seem to have strong flavour of ginseng , in fact , its like a normal pork belly

Chicken slices in special sauce (rm27) ....din really shoot the chicken BBQ part as its kinda similar to the pork , the chicken is so fragrant and it was grilled to perfect , somehow like the japanese style of grill chicken ,teppanyaki ?

Some sort of fish steamboat , don really know the name of the fish as its in korean >.<.....anyway , its rm70 for this steamboat thingy , the fish were fresh , and they actually put in tons of vege especially bean sprouts but the soup is extremely tasty , u can even taste the natural sweetness of the fish inside the soup

We were given a free korean style pancake =D by the manager......its very thin yet tasty pancake , especially the sauce , it just light up the whole thing XD

Seafood Fried rice for my little cousin bro (rm17).....taste extremely good as well , especially the texture of the rice , its so spongy and aromatic , sry for the poor quality of photo though , hands were shaky that time as i cant resist all the food in front of me :P

My impression towards this restaurant is quite good as the service is good yet the price is considerably reasonable......so bill totalled up rm158.40 , 10% of service charge and NO govt tax

Xin Lai Lai" Food Court

Went supper with S last night......after like 40 mins of driving , we couldnt find a place to coz its ad near to 10.30pm......passed by this food court coincidentally....so went in and tried some of the food , this food court is located near jalan P.Ramlee and jalan Perak and its just 10mins walking distance from heng ee high school.....anyway , here are our orders :

Mee Udang (rm3.50).....this is 1 of the best mee udang i'd ever tried in town.....i don feel like posting up this post in the beginning but S feels this mee udang is superb so she suggested i post this....well ....its super duper hot and spicy....but the sauce is simply amazing ,comes with 3 big prawns as well =)

Belacan Fried Rice (rm4.00).....very fragrant and the rice is chewy , but wat i dislike is they put in a lot of vege which is very annoying......seems like fried rice with tons of vege isnt a good idea afterall @.@

Satay(rm5.00)......pretty decent....nothing special worth for me to mention.....sauce is terribly few =(

They got quite a wide variety of food here.......but from wat i tried b4 , their wanton mee , curry mee and western food is quite nice and price is reasonable too =).....well , its just a short post since its just supper , don expect me to eat a lot right XD

Marble Arch Cafe @ Pulau Tikus Market

Its been a long long time since i ever post a food post.....was quite running of ideas...lol..so right beside Pulau Tikus wet market , there is a cafe open for both breakfast and dinner , if u are sick of those market food such as koay teow th'ng , curry mee etc....u can seek for this instead when u visit to this market next time....anyway....mostly they serve western food...here are some orders of the day :

A cup of coffee(rm1.90) in a daily breakfast is crucial >.<....nothing much to mention about but the coffee was rather smooth than those in coffee shop(don compare with those in starbucks)

My Iced lemon tea (rm3.90).....taste pretty decent but unfortunately i don see the lemon anywhere in this cup of tea......so i guess it should be named as iced tea :P

A simply common breakfast set(rm5.90) ....needless to tell the taste....just ordinary sausages and hams.....portion was rather small though

Garlic toast with mushroom soup set (rm4.90)....one of the best order of the day......creamy mushroom soup with toasted garlic bread....and the garlic bread is damn aromatic , thanks to those spices they used...

My tom yum spaghetti (rm7.90)....as u might have noticed...im a big fan of spagetthi....lol......taste is rather good.....shrimps were fresh.....everything is just nice but the portion was DAMN SMALL......its like nothing even though i chewed down the whole plate T.T....

Outer look of the cafe , they also have some healthy style bread for sale like multi grain , wholemeal etc......and bill totalled up rm23.90.....which is quite cheap i guess.....and there is no tax at all =)
