SPICE GARDEN, SHANGRI-LA’S RASA SAYANG RESORT & SPA (INVITED REVIEW)
Shangri-la Rasa Sayang Resorts have something for everyone for this month. The promotional buffet (BUY 1 FREE 1) till end of this month had attracted many food bloggers as well as buffet lovers to enjoy their meal here. During the promotion, thanks to Gourmet Garden for offering a group of 6 bloggers weekly to dine at the Spice Garden. I feel much honored to be invited by them as one of the lucky six. The restaurant is capable of having around 250 diners covering indoor and outdoor at the same time. The Spice Market Café is an informal buffet-style restaurant that offers authentic cuisines from diverse cultures that reflect Penang's heritage as a cultural crossroads. The buffet is divided into 7 sections by type of cuisine - Indian, Western, Asian, Seafood/Japanese, Cavalries, Dessert and Juice counter. There are up to 100 varieties of food can be found here.
- Traditional granite mortar and a mixture of spices-
What is so special is every table has this display of a traditional granite mortar and a mixture of spices in it. This gives an authentic feeling which I could not resist to take up my camera to get a snap of it. At the entrance to the café you'll find the Spice Boutique, where you can learn about and purchase some of the most exotic spices in Asia. The boutique features over 100 varieties of dried herbs and spices, with varieties of curry powders and other ingredients for you to take home.
INDIAN & MALAY STATION
And now, MalaysianFoodie will bring you tour around the food in Spice Market for this round by starting the Indian section. The section is served with the authentic Indian Food and a slight Malay where you can find Tandoori, Naan, Curry and Papadum.

Char Koay Teow @ Coconut Garden
A visit to Batu Feringgi is a must to accomplish with the delighting char koay teow. The char koay teow is being recommended by a good friend , HP. HP brought us to try the delighting char koay teow which is located along the Jalan Batu Feringghi. The shop not only served Char Koay Teow but they also served other hawker delights like bak kut teh and more.
The char koay teow here is well fried and the char koay teow is crystal clear. The taste was extremely nice and as usual char koay teow comes with the prawns, and the seashells as well. The taste is very very nice and delighting till we make a extra order of 2 more to bring home and one to eat here.
Yummy

A dine in Ferringhi Garden, Batu Ferringhi
This was my first time to Ferringhi Garden, to my surprise, this place turned out to be much better than I had expected. A place which I felt I am inside a forest. Haha.. The place is definite a romantic place and this place is recommended by my best friend Hun Pin. He brought me and my bf to this authentic beautiful place for a dinner.
A place which is filled with lots of tropical plants and a feeling you are having them with the greens. Sink yourself into Malaysia's tropical rainforest now!!
The building is divided into 2 part. The back part is like a lounge/mini bar where the front part is mainly the restaurant with outdoor and indoor seating and outdoor mini bar as well. With the mini waterfall at the side of the restaurant and the dim light ambiance around the restaurant, it is certainly a great and romantic place for couple.
The service is really good and the food menu is various. You may find from western, to Chinese and to Thai as well. Our meal had started with an order of the Waldron Salad. The delighting salad which comes with fruits, kismis and also some walnut included on it.
The meal also comes with the garlic bread which taste delighting and yummy. Love the taste of it.
Next will be the prawn cutlet which is HP order. Not a big portion of dining. There is a few prawn cutlets and served with fries and salad in it. According to HP the meal here is superb and delighting as well.
Next come Chicken Chop. It is the Hainan’s Style Chicken Chop which is serves is fried chicken with the Hainan’s mushroom sauce as well as fries and salad. The delighting taste of the chicken chop makes it a superb deal. I love the sauce so much and the delighting fries. The chicken taste is a bit hard but overall the taste is real nice.
The next one will be mine delighting which is the Pineapple Fried Rice which is coming on the way.. The fried rice which is serves on top of the pineapple. Oops.. is half pineapple. The fried rice is serves very nicely and the taste is simply superb. Portion wise is not too much and taste is simply delighting.
We unable to get the snap shot of the smoothies and the environment as our camera is already out of battery. Sad.. sad.. sad.. but we can say the food and environment and services is like a 5 star hotel. A delighting place for meal and nice environment
As for food price is also reasonable as well.
