甜在心糖水屋 (Sweet-i)

Sweet-i has moved to new location! 

Please scroll to the end of this post to see their new location.

Sweet-i

糖水 or dessert is famous among Chinese, especially here in Penang. Last two nights, I went to this particular shop/house of desserts, Sweet-i, The Sweet Temptations Shop House. They served a lot of desserts or 糖水. This shop is actually a house renovated to be a shop selling desserts. They have a lot of products but not all are available everyday. Each day, they served different desserts. I tried out Sha Shen Red Dates Winter Melon Soup which is good to get rid of heatiness. My friend had Green Bean China Barley Soup. Good thing is that the desserts are not very sweet. They taste so nice and healthy as well. The boss is very friendly as he will introduce you all the desserts as you asked. If you don't know, just ask and he is very friendly to help.

Linda Chung Ka Yan (鍾嘉欣) in Penang

UPDATE: Video included!

Linda

Yes, Linda Chung from Hong Kong! She is now better known as Miss Cool in Yes Sir No Sir (点解阿Sir是阿Sir) TVB drama. She was here on 28 May 2011 at Penang Auto-City. She was here to promote her album, The Private Selection. That was the first time I saw her in LIVE! She is very pretty, cute and FRIENDLY! Although that was just a small concert, she is very friendly to all! According to my friend, she is friendlier than the other Taiwan artist that came here last year in Auto-City.

Goh Thew Chik Hainan Chicken Rice (伍秀澤海南鸡饭)

One line to display the coffee shop name in both language, "Kedai Kopi Thew Chik Cafe"

When Penang is going green recently, even, naming the coffee shop is not an exception, going for both Malay and English languages in one line, "Kedai Kopi Thew Chik Cafe". In Malay language should be "Kedai Kopi Thew Chik" and in English, should be "Thew Chik Cafe". When both were combined, it became - Kedai Kopi Thew Chik Cafe. However, Penang is still the Paradise of Food! This post I am going to introduce the chicken rice in Penang. This going green shop is selling Hainan Chicken Rice, which is situated along Lebuh Chulia, Penang.

Joez Penang Coconut Jelly

Joez Penang Coconut Jelly

After lunch at Chit Tiau Lor Wetmarket, now I went to Joez Penang Coconut Jelly to have the famous coconut jelly. Not the jelly with coconut flavour, but the jelly from the coconut water. Weird thing is, they do not have to remove the coconut water to make the jelly, the jelly is produced inside the coconut itself without having to open the coconut. For me, the taste is a bit weird but worth to try.

Wetmarket at Lebuh McNair (Chit Tiau Lor Wetmarket)

Warning! Sorry, this is a NON-HALAL post!

On the table at one of the stalls at the wetmarket

This time, I am at the wetmarket near Lebuh McNair, the Seven Streets Precinct of George Town, Penang, or known to the local as "Chit Tiau Lor" in Hokkien. This wetmarket has two sides; one selling vegetables, raw meats and etc and the other side is selling food, like a food court. One thing is that some of the stalls in the market do not allow you to order drinks from other stalls, which in the end, you will see the notice on the table, NOT ALLOWED ICE-KACANG. Under the word NOT is...

When Google Translator fails

See the last line of the hanging menu

Do you think you can depend on software solely to do everything for you? You're wrong! Here is another failure of Google Translator. I found the menu at one of the coffee shops in Taman Universiti, Skudai, Johor.

Feeding the other in mind

If you notice, actually the Chinese version is wrong too. Let's see what Google Translator did for us when we have the correct Chinese version.

A nice bag

Sorry, my post isn't really related to the title, just that, I found it printed on a bag and it seems an interesting phrase. Alright! First supper when I was in Penang since 21 May 2011. The story began at Kimberly Street, Penang. A peaceful street in the midnight but filled with delicious food around.

Riding on the Highway

Riding on the Highway

Yesterday, 21 May 2011, marked the day, the next chapter of my life. 4 years of university finally no longer a comma but a full-stop. Yesterday was the day I move to Penang to work. Riding on the PLUS highway, I have these feeling of happiness and worry. I am happy because finally, I am in the semi-graduate mode and worry because, is the chapter of life is a smooth one? An interesting one? Or disaster?

Verbena Cake & Bread Shop

Verbena Cake & Bread Shop

This is a story of a bakery that made its name in Kulai. Kulai, a small town with a lot of delicious food, zoo and cake and bread shop is not an exceptional. Verbena, according to my friend from Kulai, the chef is the ex-chef from Shangri-la Hotel, Singapore. I am not sure if this is true, but I am sure the pastries, cakes and breads here are VERY delicious! Let's say the chef is not from Shangri-la but for me, it has the Shangri-la standard. The first time I went there, the shop was almost full. The reason is you can buy Shangri-la style pastries at the price of normal pastries.

Saleng Zoo, Kulai

Saleng Zoo

Now, it's time for the travel post instead of food! The second, we went to Saleng Zoo, a private zoo located at Saleng, near to Kulai. From what I know, this zoo was opened by a businessman. It is a private zoo, so, you will expect less animals compared to National Zoo or even Johor Zoo. However, you can see a lot of tigers and lions here! The number of tigers and lions here is more than other zoos. I am not sure how the management is going to survive by feeding the tigers and lions everyday. The entrance fee is RM15.00 for adult and RM8.00 for child. The opening hour is from 9.30AM until 7.00PM. The entrance fee is a bit high but considering the cost they need to operate this zoo, I think it's worth the price as they have a lot tigers and lions. However, the aunty at the ticket selling counter is good enough to give a discount, FREE one head charge. We went in a group of 9 but she said pay for 8 people since we asked if there is any student price.

Chicken Rice Nasi Lemak

I went to Kulai, Johor with a bunch of coursemates last Friday, 13 May (Friday, The 13th). That was the first and the last Kulai trip before I leave UTM. The first stop at Kulai was eating dinner at one of the famous Nasi Lemak stalls. Nasi lemak is one of the Malaysia's pride and this cuisine is only available in Malaysia, if I am not mistaken. A typical nasi lemak consists of white rice cooked with santan (coconut milk), sambal, peanut and egg. It is Malaysians' most favourite breakfast and is widely available throughout Malaysia. The best part of Nasi Lemak is the rice and the sambal. Since it is widely available, the rice and sambal are the only criteria to distinguish between delicious or not delicious. But the picture shown above looks like chicken rice, rather than Nasi Lemak, but trust me, it's Nasi Lemak! The one that I went to in Kulai is famous for its sambal, I presumed. I saw a lot people "refilled" the sambal. The sambal is a bit spicy but nice.

Suck it, Brand X

This is what happen when competition gets stiff. I came across an advertisement in the Facebook. It is quite interesting when you see the picture.

Suck it, Brand X

I am not sure it is typing error or an unofficial advertisement, but when I clicked the link, it redirected me to Altera official website. I am not sure but from the image, I saw "Suck it, Brand X".

Do you think that it is too extreme for Altera to advertise its new design software with "Suck it, Brand X"? Now, you know why Quartus II Software is #1 in Performance and Productivity. And WHAT IS BRAND X? I guess it's Xilinx.

What do you see? Please tell me in the comment box!

UPDATE: After 5 minutes I posted this, this is the new Altera advertisement in Facebook.

Ayukawa Japanese Buffet Restaurant

Ayukawa

These few years, Japanese food outlets grew like mushroom after the rain. I realized most of the Malaysians like to eat Japanese cuisines. However, due to the Japan nuclear plant explosion recently, the Japanese cuisines business is going down because everyone is afraid to consume radioactive. Today, a group of friends and I went to Ayukawa Japanese Buffet Restaurant at Taman Sutera Utama, Skudai, Johor to have a lunch buffet. It is situated next to Sutera Mall. The ordering style is ala-carte or "Table Clipping", which means you order from the menu given but order as much as you can at a fixed price. Since the price for lunch buffet is cheaper than dinner buffet, a few dishes were taken off from the menu, the expensive one. However, you still can have a taste of sashimi, the fresh raw fish. There are three types of fish served as sashimi - tuna, salmon and butter fish, if I am not mistaken.
