Long Weekend ; Well Spent (Labour Day + Wesak Day)

Hello there *waves waves*

I bet everyone enjoy the beginning of May just like I did.. due to the public holiday and replacement holiday..

 Friday-Monday.. total of four days.. 

*because no need go class or work and can lepak at home or go out somewhere with your favourite people.* hahaa..

but boyfie got work half day on the saturday...

Initially family plan to go down to Ipoh and KL but cancelled off due to hotel fully book and worry there might be a lot of people and jams ~ so just stay in our own sweet island... 

Enjoy the long entry ! Hopefully you have the patient to read it all.. ^^ 

*Post might not accordingly to the date *

Went to food hunting with loved ones.. 

Wanted to go Trois Canon Cafe but it is close on that day (you can read my visit to the cafe here).. so We ( Me, Second Sis, Kh and Boyfiee) went to try the Delight Delicatessen located at Campbell Street .. *From what I read from few food blogger blog it stated that it initially located at Macalister Lane and now they move the Campbell Street after Kantan Cafe closed down.. 

*too many cafe opening in Penang.. not even get the chance to visit it , it already closed down* 

 ;)

 ||| Delight Delicatessen @ Campbell Street |||

few shops away from Sweet Time in Sugar Honey Cafe and Moustache House Cafe

(previously was Kantan Cafe)  

these are the set lunch menu during weekdays 

(monday-thursday)

whereas this is the normal price menu

we ordered two set and two ala carte

the set come with one drink, soup and free flow of ice creams

a friendly reminder

sharing is not allowed!

surcharge will be charge if caught.. hehe..

during our visit.. there are five flavours of ice creams

yam, mint with choco chips, chocolate, vanilla and sweet corn 

so cute the coasters.. 

the drinks ~ Passionfruit, Peach tea and Green tea
not too sweet.. 

the soup that come in the set is Pumpkin soup served with a slice of garlic bread

the garlic bread can be more crunchy .. as for the soup, taste sweet for me, but I still prefer mushroom soup as my appetizer over this.. hehe..

The Humans ;

Kok Hong ordered Mera-mera chicken with 2 sidelines

for the sidelines, He opt for Mera fries and Mera rice 

For the chicken, there are four level of spiciness to choose from..(can refer the menu above)

He opt for Mild.. level 1..

Here it is ; Look like Nando isn't it? 
the chicken is not too dry and is tender.. 
but the rice not flavourful enough.. and I guess their fries is handcut fries.. 
overall can say is quite health not much msg used.. 

Second sis ordered the Spaghetti Chicken Meatballs 

the chicken ball is yummy.. not like other shop type of meatball

this one they go fried it and it goes well with the spaghetti.. 

the spaghetti is not too soft nor hard.. 

Me ordered the same like Kh Mera-mera Chicken with 2 sidelines 

but I opt for edamame and coleslaw as my side

and for the spiciness level I opt for Flaming.. level 3

 

the sauce is homemade by them.. it goes well with the chicken.. 
don't really like the coleslaw...

Boyfiee (Gene) ordered the Mera-mera Wrap served with fries and salad 

aww.. wrong angle.. did not capture the fillings in the wrap... 
the wrap is with chicken slices inside , lettuces, tomatoes, onions and sauces.. 
healthy lunch..

Overall food taste good and worth the price with the portion they serving
For the next visit boyfiee say would like to try out their pie 9 inch Grandfather Colonial Chicken Pie
the owner say it can served up to 4 people.. but he say he can finish the whole pie by himself.. haha
 Anyway .. for the chicken pie have to make reservation one day in advance .. 
so that they can prepare a yummy yummy pie for you ..  =P

Photos of the day ~ 

As for dinner.. we went to The Alley located at Butterworth since is just opened not long ago.. 

together with Janice and PK too.. 

S u n r a y s ;

with the help of Waze

we reached the area but cannot find the shop.. 

then keep turn here and there and finally found it.. the shop is not located in the shop lots area like the one in Penang/Sungai Petani.. this one is located individually as one..

it is located opposite these two shops

Tadahhh..

Here it is 

||| The Alley , Raja Uda, Butterworth |||

the first branch is in Penang located near Guan Yim Theng which serve churros, cronuts, cakes and coffees whereas the second branch located in Sungai Petani serve Western food , cakes and drinks

and for this third branch located at Raja Uda.. they serve Japanese food with coffee and of course with some cakes and drinks.. special isn't it? hahaa

I'm not a fan of coffees but Japanese food definitely a YES !

the kitchen is located outside of the cafe.. and is in the container..
I find it interesting.. haha..

the menu

R e t r o ; 

the food!!

Katsu Don

For the spiciness level, they also got four levels for the customers to choose from .. since me and boyfie sharing this ..we opt for second level .. Look at the picture below ! They are generous in giving the potatoes and carrots as the side with the chicken cutlet .. it is crunchy on the outside and tender in the inside.. the curry is thick and yummy.. .. sis commented that ..the taste with the generous portion and price paid is so much better compared to Coco Ichibanya (a restaurant originated from Japan and specialize in serving curry rice that recently open in Queensbay Mall top floor)

Sis and KH ordered the Sake Don

aww.. I like this one too.. the salmon breaded with crumb and deep fried!.. 

the salmon do not have the fishy smell and it goes so well with the curry rice.. 

next visit gonna order this! hehe.

Janice and her bf was quite disappointed with that they had ordered..
 Sake Mentai

due to the fish portion and the fish slices are too thin.. 

-Sushi Sushi-

after eating the Katsu Don.. I can't really taste all this because quite full already..

but price wise is affordable..

Jan & Pk's

Chocolate Oreo Frappe  

Pinky Guava
Taste of Guava very strong.. quite unique.. dont really know how to describe the taste..
but definitely worth the try..

After the dinner.. we went back to Penang and find a cafe to chill ...
Ended up at Sweet Time in Sugar Honey..
 Yz joined us and we played some board games and 
end the night with the ''killer game'' ..

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is swimming day ~

is been so long since I swam.. haha.. not very pro in swimming.. 

but at least know how to float in the water.. hahaa but before went to swim at Kh's house.. drop by Janice house for gym.. Did not join in the session .. because just ate lunch.. 

Drizzling a little during our swim 

After swimming.. went for dinner around Farlim area..

and back Kh's house for card game.. Dominion..

||| Penang Hill |||

Trip to Penang Hill with loved ones

Parents been so long did not went up to Penang Hill 

so on one of the day during the long weekends.. we have a family outing to Penang Hill

since it is a holiday.. a lot of tourists and local people went there too..

luckily now they have a parking building at the side before the entrance for people to park or not everyone have to park by the roadside till down the road.. Ps; parking is not free of charge.. you have to pay ... if not mistaken is RM1 per hour.. not so sure because I'm not the one paying.. hahaa .. 

For the ticket 

RM4 for student / senior citizen - student have to show student card together with IC

whereas for adult with IC is RM8 

the train ride was so fast.. maybe due to so many people on that day.. not even 30 mins we reach the peak and down the hill.. hahaa.. I guess they turn on their top speed mode..

L O V E B R I D G E ;

Ice cream to cool us down.. 

 going down the hill

After Penang Hill.. 

Parents drop me n boyfiee to his house to wait for Janice and Pk to go Taiping for seafood..

the beautiful sky ~ 

after one two hours of car journey .. we finally reach Taiping 

this restaurant is located somewhere in Matang, Taiping.. 

Not really familiar with the road there.. haha.. and is so dark.. barely can remember how to go..

but I'm sure you can find it using Waze.. haha.. 

||| Restoran Makanan Laut Yee Seng, Matang, Taiping |||

 this restaurant only serve their seafood in few types of cooking style.. 

either u want it steam, fried, cook with curry or kung pao style 

so we let the guys decide how they want the seafood to be cook.. 

and we just sit back and wait for the food to be served.. 

Very hungry at that time but luckily we did not wait very long for the food to be served..

but due to holiday season.. we want to order squid.. FINISH.. we want crab .. FINISH..

and we don't feel like eating prawn.. so we did not order that.. so ended up we only order 

1) Shark Fish Kung Pow Style - we don't like it .. it taste weird.. and doesn't taste like kung pow at all.. dunno how to describe the taste of it.. 

2) Stir Fried Tofu - Normal.. nothing to shout out.. 

3) Mixed vegetable with Sambal Belacan - so so ~ the sambal belacan taste did not stand out..

4) Fried Fish - this is good.. Crunchy at the outside and soft in the inside.. RM2 per piece

5) Steam Kappa - can taste the sweetness of the kappa 

6) Curry Mantis Prawn - this is nice.. but the mantis prawn a little bit small in size..

7) Hot tea for four people RM2 (refillable) 

Overall.. the portion is actually enough for six people but only four of us finish it up except for the shark fish..  food taste is wise .... haha.. winning point is that the price is cheap.. only cost us RM109 for 6 dishes for 4 people.. Ps;  boyfie and Pk did comment that during their previous visit.. the taste of the food is better compared to this.. maybe due to peak season.. all the good one already let people ordered.. left the little little bit for us.. so sad.. but anyhow I still enjoy the good time with them.. ^^
