States and federal territories of Malaysia

34 Bishop @ Bishop Street, Georgetown, Penang.

July 24, 2019 By Keith Leave a Comment

The following submission was indeed produced courtesy of Ken Hunts Food. They frequently provide videos of the best quality so are no doubt one of my must-watch writers. You are going to enjoy.

Replacing the lot previously occupied by Simply Wang Thai is 34 Bishop, a newly opened cafe right next to Two Frenchies on Bishop Street. The name surely does not ring a bell (except the location) but in actual fact, it is a cafe offering Western menu… as well as some local delights. Step in the place and you will find a huge aquarium in the middle of the cafe, with a few eye-catching polka dot Stingrays. You will then notice they are all over the place… on the menu and mural paints on the wall but it has no direct relationship with what the place offers (except that there is only one Stingray dish on the menu). Options are pretty safe here with good consistency and reasonable prices; but sometimes, the serving time takes a little longer than other places.

Lamb Stew with Garlic Toasts (Rm 26.90)

Miso Wafu Pasta (Rm 17.90)

Creamy Fettuccine with Chicken (Rm 16.90)

Piri Piri Chicken (Rm 21.90)

States and federal territories of Malaysia

Bananas Foster French Toast (Rm 15.90)

We were there on one of the early Chinese New Year days and the serving speed was very slow. It took them a little less than an hour to serve the mains and another half an hour for the dessert. We were quite disappointed with their serving speed and hope that it was because of Chinese New Year and nothing else.

Both Pasta dishes did not disappoint… with Miso Wafu Pasta stands out more. The Spaghetti was al-dentely cooked and served with rich and creamy Japanese-styled Goma sauce. The Miso flavor was not strong but the Sesame flavor was bold. The sauce felt a little salty at the beginning but it gets better when the Spaghetti was well-mixed together. Lamb Stew with Garlic Toasts was the star dish of the day, the meat was tender and the flavor-combo was beautifully done. The accompanying Garlic Toasts were not shabby either, the texture was fluffy and soft, almost like buttered Brioche. The seasonings were however, on the heavier side. We ended the meal with their Bananas Foster French Toast… ordinary ersatz Toast served on a bed of Caramel sauce. It did not seem convincing at first but the Caramel sauce was delicious. It was not saccharine sweet but just good enough at comfortable level, we were a little let down with the choice of Toast though, Brioche might work better in this case.

Epic Games Store To Undergo Redesign; More Features To Be Added Soon

July 21, 2019 By Keith Leave a Comment

Penang Malaysia tips and news.

Another blog post freshly published by Lowyat.NET. More than likely one of the most important sources of free written content on the Internet.

While Valve may be redesigning its Steam Store, it’s not the only digital distributor that is doing so – Epic Games is also redesigning its store. More importantly, it’s planning on adding missing features that would effectively make it more comparable to the current market leader.

Besides an overhaul of its layout, Epic Games will also add cloud saving and installation management to its digital store, as well as improve upon the sizes of its DLC and patches over the next three months. Four to six months out, Epic Games will then add developer opt-in user reviews.

Beyond that, the Epic Games Store will be adding achievements, multi-game sales, a loyalty program of sorts, and a social overhaul.

British Malaya

There are additional parameters that Epic Games wishes to integrate into its Store, and sooner rather than later. These include automated refunds, gifting, and support for more languages. Unsurprisingly the brand is also trying to figure out ways to prevent review bombing, as well as add support for bundle price adjustment, mod support, and news feeds.

All these are pretty important features that are currently still missing from the Epic Games Store. While it’s good to see that the parent company has a roadmap for their implementation, the absence of these features still contributes to Steam remaining as the preferred digital games storefront.

14th Coffee Located At Taman Seri Impian, Bukit Mertajam, Penang

May 2, 2019 By Keith Leave a Comment

Penang advice.

The next post was first published courtesy of Ken Hunts Food. I usually take pleasure in making time for 1 of their articles or blog posts because they are actually useful. I hope you find it helpful.

14th Coffee 拾肆室 has been taking social media channels by storm despite of its rather hidden location. The place is a residential-terrace turned cafe, with modern, chic and minimalist design. The place can be found behind AEON Mall at Alma; the exterior does not suggest much, especially to a cafe and the best part is, the entrance to the cafe is at the side, not the front… making it extra hard for first timers to come by. Being a vegetarian cafe, the place offers a simple menu featuring some mains (not the usual-boring vegetarian fare) including but not limited to, Shepherd’s Pie, Sandwiches, Noodles and Souffle Cheese Cake. Good quality of food despite wallet-friendly prices.

Cold Sesame Noodles (Rm 11)

Souffle Cheesecake (Rm 7.50)

Matcha Au Lait Ice Cube (Rm 11)

The Cold Sesame Noodles consisted of a mixture of julienned Cucumbers, Carrots, caramelized Vegetarian Ham and Enokitake Mushrooms… served over Sesame Salad dressing. The noodles were silky smooth rather than the al-dente type but the concoction was most refreshing and delicious. They did a nice twist to the Mushrooms by adding Sugar to caramelize them, introducing a tacky-crisp texture and sleek sweetness to the dish.

If you like your Cheese Cakes creamy and rich, you must try 14th Coffee’s. The Cheese element was bold and the texture was satisfyingly creamy. It may be a little too heavy for one to finish entirely though. We washed it down with a serving of Matcha Au Lait Ice Cube… steamed frothy Milk poured over non-sweetened Matcha-infused Ice Cubes.

Plaque Noire Dessert & Cocktail Bar At Kimberley Street, Georgetown, Penang

April 30, 2019 By Keith Leave a Comment

Penang tips.

The following piece of writing was in fact provided by Ken Hunts Food. They typically provide you with posts of the highest quality and are therefore one of my current must-watch blogs. I’m guessing you’ll enjoy.

The concept of combining two beloved things- desserts and cocktails has been creating excitements at the other parts of the world. Introducing this playful concept to Penang, Plaque Noire is the first of its kind. The proprietor was trained in Taiwan and France before settling down in Penang. Painted in shades of black, the place exudes a mysterious sense; as you walk in, you will be greeted by the friendly servers. The place is not big… only with limited seating but visitors can opt to enjoy their booze at the bar counter or the tables at the end of the bar. Offering-wise, it has a small selection of sweets, which to be changed and updated on monthly-basis; a list of in-house Cocktails and classic blend. Prices however, are on the higher side but the quality is set to impress.

Apple- Cinnamon Sable/ Red Wine Apple/ Coconut Rum Chantilly/ Cheesecake/ Vanilla Ice Cream (Rm 32)

Heavenly Chocolate- 70% Dark Chocolate Mascarpone/ White Chocolate Crunch/ Coco Shards/ Walnut Brownie/ Chocolate Hazelnut Ice Cream (Rm 45)

Goddess of Love- Strawberry infused Gin/ Soda/ Fresh Mint (Rm 29)

1930’s- Yakult/ Gin/ Coconut Rum (Rm 30)

Summer of Splash- Watermelon/ Fresh Mint/ Sprite/ Vodka (Rm 32)

Start off with one of the best sellers- Apple… a beautifully combination of Cinnamon Sable and Red Wine Apple, complete with frozen Cheesecake and Vanilla Ice Cream. The Cinnamon-Apple combo needs no further introduction, the bomb was the Vanilla Ice Cream… deliciously creamy with bold-alluring Vanilla flavor. We were certainly impressed but not until we had Heavenly Chocolate…. a dish not to be missed by Chocolate lovers. The dessert plate gathered everything chocolaty… starting from the nutty Chocolate Brownie and creamy Mascarpone…. to Chocolate Ice Cream and Shards. The combination was multi-dimensional and it did not feel too “heavy” despite of the creamy-chocolaty elements around. Hands-down, one of the best Chocolate creations I’ve ever had.

While lifting up the spoons for the desserts, remember to take a sip on the mixed drinks. Goddess of Love was a little heavy on alcohol; while Summer Splash felt more refreshing with a fruity-touch. 1930’s was a little playful and unusual, as though we were drinking Yakult over Ice; the booziness was kept minimal.

The 5 Most Delicious Types of Chocolates

April 24, 2019 By Keith Leave a Comment

Penang news.

Latest post just created by Tastiest, Penang Food Blog. Almost certainly 1 of the finest sources of information on the Internet.

Did you know that on June 6, 1944, Allied troops stormed the beach of Normandy with Hershey chocolate bars in their pockets? The troops needed something nutritious, high in calorie count, easy to transport and tasty. Chocolate fit the bill on all requirements and quickly became a food favorite. While cacao beans only grow in exotic places like Columbia, Africa and Indonesia, their regional productivity now tempts palates worldwide with distinct chocolate flavors and forms. Here are the five most delicious types of chocolate that you will find on the market today.

1. Dark Chocolate (Including Bitter and Semi-sweet)

Chocolatiers produce chocolate by combining cocoa butter, sugar and flavorings yet the cocoa concentration must be more than 65 percent to be considered a dark chocolate product. Bitter chocolate has between 15 percent and 50 percent cocoa while semi-sweet has 35 to 55%. No dark chocolate product contains milk which makes it an excellent option for baking or people with dietary needs like dairy-free or vegan. Dark chocolate is used in decadent sweets like ganaches, glazes or premium-made products like Chuao Chocolatier bars. Semi-sweet chocolate is most often used to make cookies, desserts and candy.

2. Milk Chocolate

Milk chocolate is an American favorite as many products are shelf-ready and made to eat directly from the wrapper. While it has a 10th of chocolate liquor, it contains about 20 percent of cocoa butter. It also contains milk and sugar that produce a rich, sweet taste. It also melts in your mouth, so it is an ideal choice when wanting a sugary treat. You can also use it when baking, but this chocolate type does not react well to higher temperatures. Milk chocolate is better formulated to eat as is or as a topping or icing.

3. Cocoa Powder

If you look on any baker’s shelf, you will most likely find cocoa powder as it is used in many products including puddings, cakes or chocolate cookies. Unlike the other chocolate types that contain cocoa butter, cocoa powder is made from the raw cacao bean solids. The process is a bit confusing for many consumers as pure cocoa has the cocoa butter removed. The two primary types are Dutch and regular. Some cocoa powder manufacturers add as much as 25 percent of the cocoa butter to diversify the taste.

4. Unsweetened Baker’s Chocolate

Baker’s chocolate contains less than 5 percent of cocoa butter, which makes it a favorite for dessert makers. Unsweetened chocolate is entirely made from the solidified chocolate liquor and does not contain the sugar content that other chocolate types have.

5. White Chocolate

White chocolate is made from at least 20 percent of cocoa butter as well as milk, vanilla, lecithin and sugar. It does not have any chocolate liquor, unlike the darker types which is what gives it the white, creamy appearance. It is perfect for baking, coatings or icings.

The next time you have a gathering, try a chocolate tasting party. Not only will you introduce your friends to its Mesoamerican beginnings, but friends will appreciate the tasting experience.

Mama Kim Sauna Mee Located At Tanjung Tokong, Penang

April 5, 2019 By Keith Leave a Comment

Penang Malaysia news.

One additional post by What2seeonline.com. In my opinion 1 of the most popular generators of information and facts you can find.

With the motto “Where Healthy is Yummy”, Mama Kim Sauna Mee is the place for everyone to experience a nutritious healthy meal in Penang. Located at the junction of Jalan Tanjung Tokong and Jalan Pantai Molek, the eatery offers a casual atmosphere and a menu that’s easy to order from.

The menu brings out Asian, Western and local dishes prepared with less salt, with no MSG, no white sugar and no white flour. Vegetables take center stage, and only brown rice is used!

One of Mama Kim’s highlights is the Sauna Mee 桑拿面, with choices of Fish Sauna Mee with fish soup, or Vegetarian Sauna Mee with vegetarian soup. Both offer options of brown rice, pumpkin noodles, and mushroom rice noodles.

The bowl of Sauna Mee arrived in a special heated hot stone bowl, with a balanced combination of more than five healthy colours of vegetables. Slow-cooked soup (refillable) is poured onto the noodles upon serving. The warming dish is best savored with their homemade chili sauce and fried garlic.

Fish Sauna Mee

The Fried Wild Mushroom Fried Rice 野菌炒饭 is a comfort fare, with a variety of mushrooms, carrot, and vegetables whipped up with a pleasing, smoky taste. The accompaniment is a simple salad, a combination of shredded purple and white cabbage, carrot, and corn. Chili padi in light soy sauce gives the dish a spicy kick.

Wild mushroom fried rice RM11.90

Porridge is a simple and light dish to warm the stomach. At Mama Kim, enjoy the comforting choices of creamy black and green porridge, brighten up with savory salty preserved accompaniments.

Black porridge (vege) RM7.50

Green porridge (vege) RM7.50

Mama Kim also puts together a kids menu with six choices. Small eaters can try choices of herbal chicken chop (RM9.90) and the tomato baked fish rice (RM10). The two dishes are essentially smaller versions from the full sized order.

The chicken chop is well executed especially when it comes to the accompanying sauce and creamy boiled potatoes.

Kids menu – herbal chicken chop RM9.90

Nourishing desserts are also made in-house and there’s a total of three. All are priced below seven ringgit and choices include black sesame, lo hon koa and the lotus crystal pear. The lotus crystal pear dessert is utterly delightful but the black sesame dessert offers only mild nuttiness.

Lotus crystal pear dessert RM6.50

Black sesame dessert – not as nutty and aromatic as I expected

In addition to fresh drinks like lemongrass tea, pineapple, and fruit tea, you can also order a cup of Mama Kim Coffee. Have a sip of the local coffee with a bite of the complimentary coconut biscuit. And of course, diehard coconut biscuit fans can buy the biscuit at the eatery too.

Pineapple juice

The eatery is open daily from 8am to 10pm. For those waking up early, the breakfast menu offers healthy good deals. Choose between the soup noodles, fried noodles or porridge, with prices starting from RM3.90 to RM7.50.

Three Fifteen @ Jelutong, Penang

April 3, 2019 By Keith Leave a Comment

Penang Malaysia advice.

Latest article presented from Ken Hunts Food. Surely one of the most popular providers of free material available.

Three Fifteen 三点三 Meet is a place that you get to enjoy local breakfast in a city but surrounded by serene village setting. It’s hard to come by… imagine enjoying local Kaya Butter Toast while watching the chickens moving freely within the compound. The place can be found right opposite to Lam Wah Ee Hospital along Jalan Tan Sri Teh Ewe Lim; it is manned by one of the residents staying in the village houses, part of the compound is transformed into a breakfast place. Do not expect big menu though… merely simple Hainanese-styled Toasts, Polo Bun, Half Boiled Egg etc. It is one of the best places to visit aside from Seafood Noodle and Porridge that you can find at Gurney Drive, Penang.

Polo Bun (Rm 3.20/ additional Rm 1.50 for Turkey Ham)

Kaya Butter Toast (Rm 2.40)

Half Boiled Egg (Rm 2.40)

Three Fifteen uses Charcoal to toast the bread, imparting a mellow, but distinctive smokiness to the Toast. Though nothing particularly amazing about the Kaya, the Toasts do make great addition to the Hainanese-styled breakfast and complete everything. Three Fifteen’s specialty is the Polo Bun… with additional toppings. We had ours with Cheese, greens and slivers of Turkey Ham. The outer layer of the Polo Bun carries a little sweetness so it is an interesting match with the savory toppings. Nothing particularly interesting here though.

Police Allowed Solidarity Rally On Saturday

March 30, 2019 By Keith Leave a Comment

Penang Malaysia news bites.

The next video clip was first created courtesy of The Star Online. I always take pleasure in making time for 1 of their news releases because they’re remarkably interesting. I think you’ll get something out of it.

Police have given green light to the ‘Peace, Solidarity Rally’ which will be held in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday, said Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun.

The IGP said the permit will nonetheless only allow the rally, which aimed to condemn the shooting in Christchurch, New Zealand last Friday, which killed 50 people, including two Malaysians, to go on at Dataran Merdeka from 7.30am to 11am.

A previous Return to Penang Port campaign was also allowed.

10 Of The Best Char Koay Teow In Penang

March 24, 2019 By Keith Leave a Comment

Penang Malaysia advice.

The following article was shared by Penang Foodie. They will regularly supply you with materials of the very best quality and are therefore without doubt one of my current must-follow writers. I think you’ll get something out of it.

Char Koay Teow, the ultimate MUST-HAVE food in Penang. It’s the food that defines Penang. People travel miles and miles just to taste that oily, charred, dark soy sauce glazed flat noodle. If you did not try char koay teow when in Penang, you have not visited Penang.

Top 10 Best Char Koay Teow in Penang

While there are many places for char koay teow in Penang, only true locals know the best. So, whether you’re a local or tourist, you need this list. Embrace the heritage (food) of Penang guys.

#1 Siam Road Char Koay Teow

The go-to place when it comes to char koay teow in Penang, it’s no secret that they’re the best in town. Did you know the 76-year-old uncle has upped his game? The once roadside stall off Siam Road has now got its own shop, still in Siam Road. That means better environment and longer queue foodies. Expect at least an hour wait during peak hours. Hard work all pays off when you taste the charcoal-flamed, dark-sauce, oil-glazed flavorful plate of flat rice noodle filled with wok hei.
