1997 RESTAURANT, PAYA TERUBONG
Looking for cheap and delicious Chu Cha? I used to visit the restaurant always when I am a kid and after so long I stepped back again to try their Chu Char there to fill up your hungry tummy without burning a big whole in the pocket.
Their signature dish for the chu char is the Asam Curry Fish Head. This is where the serving of the fish head is kinda big size and the soup is furnished with lots of bunga kantan, onions as well as mint leaves. The Asam Fish Head here is slightly special where the cooking style of the curry are more on the soury spicy taste rather than the lemak taste of it.
Taste: 4/5
Price: RM 30.00
The Belachan Chicken is another dish we had ordered. The belachan chicken is being deep fried till crispiness and it is full of the belachan taste with it too. They usually choose drumlet and chicken wings to fried the belachan chicken here.
Taste: 3/5
Price: RM 12.00
MEET FRESH, GURNEY PLAZA
After the Snowflakes, the business of the Taiwanese Desserts is getting more popular and Meet Fresh (鮮芋仙) Originating from Taiwan (obviously) and with branches as far as China and Australia, Meet Fresh recently opens two outlets in Penang which is in Gurney Plaza as well as Gurney Paragon. The orignal 2 masters Mr. and Mrs.Fu originated from Central Taiwan believe that cooking desert in traditional way still the best way to preserve traditional taste of it. It is made daily by handmade of those taro balls and afew other ingredients to ensure customer enjoy freshness of it. It do serves a variety of ice desserts, tofu puddings and drinks.
We had made a choice of the herbal jelly selection where we taste the sweet potato, barley and pearls. The set which is being served comes together with a small cup of cream. It is added to more enhanced on the flavors itself and the texture overall is good. The taro ball is kinda chewy and the taste bite of it is not bad but compare to Snowflakes, I still prefer Snowflakes.
Taste: 3/5
Price: RM 6.90
IT’SYOOOGURT CAFE, 1ST AVENUE PENANG
IT’SYOOOGURT time and this round we are in Penang. It seems like the frozen yogurt crazy is now in Penang as well and we went to have out frozen yogurt from the shped named IsYogurt. The yogurt shop is located at the basement of 1st Avenue. They serves a variety flavoured yogurt like strawberry, original, blueberry and more.
Besides having the different taste of yogurt, they do also have the choices of the top-ups to choose like peanuts, berries and more. The choices are quite a lot where you can add them into the desserts itself to add more flavors. So, if you are a yogurt lover, hop to IsYogurt to have a cup of the frozen yogurt iof your choice.
And here is mine blueberry yogurt with some toppings on it.

AROY CHANG MOO KATA, PULAU TIKUS
Ever hear of Aroy Chang Moo Kata? The restaurant which is along Lorong Burmah opposite Wat chayamangkalaram is a place to have Thai Cuisine. The restaurant which is opened by the Thai, the restaurant is furnished is simple decoration. As that, we had visited the restaurant this round as we are nearby the area.
The restaurant is serving steamboat but we did not ordered the steamboat but we ordered their set meal this round. There is a variety of set meal to be choosen from RM 6.50 onwards
The set meal which we had ordered:
- THE SET -
Gaeing Kiew Warn Set where the set is served with Green Curry Chicken with the Homemade Thai Fish Cake a rice as well as a Clear Tomyam Soup with Fishball. The Green Curry Chicken is being cooked in coconut milk with chicken, eggplants, lime leaves, sweet basil leaves,long beans and fresh shredded chilies. The Curry Chicken taste is not really spicy but as for the Tomyam it gives me a disappointment as it is not served hot. The tomyam which is served are warm only.
Taste: 3/5
Price: RM 6.50
JADE BLOSSOM RESTAURANT, KRYSTAL POINT 2
Jade Blossom is a pleasant Chinese restaurant where they had opened another branch at the 1st Avenue. The restaurant is an ideal place for entertaining in a business setting in the Bayan Lepas area. This round, we came here for dad's birthday celebration and we had booked the restaurant there for normal dining. Unfortunately, dad's birthday falls during the Chinese New Year Season and we had made a decision to order their CNY Package instead of the ala-carte manual which they usually have.
The menu comes with the salmon and smoked duck yee sang which resembling prosperity. The lo sang is nothing special to shout out and we did not take any picture of it as well.
Next comes the Sharkfin soup with the Eight Treasure where it gives me a slight disappointment. The sharkfin soup is not thick enough in its gravy. There is not much treasures which I can find in the soup and the taste is kinda plain as well
Taste: 2/5
Taste: 4/5
