Gurney Paragon extend their food court to even bigger and more vendor, with that said, more food variety are now available at one of the best food court in Penang mall. Great variety of hawker food can be found here such as Laksa, Lobak, Chicken Rice…etc, other than that Korean Food, Japanese Food, Mediterranean Food, Chinese Food, Thai Food…etc all available here.

Appetizer such as Cup type Jiu Hu Char that has crispy cup that hold stir fried vegetable with dried squid, the cup itself is edible and it taste real good.

Another appetizer is Popiah, deep fried to crispy skin and dipping with chili sauce is the best.

Roasted pork that is juicy with crispy skin, it has the right level of saltiness and best to eat together with Char Koay Teow.

Yummy Yummy Char Koay Teow, Penang signature hawker food that should not miss. Normally food court Char Koay Teow taste just normal but the one found here are pretty good, i won’t say the best but it is a decent one.

If Char Koay Teow is not enough then get a bowl of Laksa, sour and spicy soup noodle is a must to try in Penang. It is very appetizing and delicious. Continue reading Gurney Paragon Food Court Just Food →

Ramadhan 2016 Buffet at Eastern & Oriental Penang

June 7, 2016 Enqvist Leave a comment

When it come buffet Eastern & Oriental Hotel Sarkies always our first choice, during the Ramadhan Month 2016 buffet (6 June – 5th July 2016) price at RM133 nett for adult and RM60.95 nett for child. The buffet served with signature dishes such as roasted whole lamb, snow crab on ice and many other great dishes. As usual we are surprise by the great variety offer throughout the buffet line and during Ramadhan month they even extend the buffet to have more item such as traditional kuih, somtam, satay, grilled whole lamb, teh Tarik…etc. It is certainly interesting to dine in E&O buffet.

Deep Fried Popiah, Prawn and Yam Paste Wrap.

Countless main dish that include of Chicken, Squid, Fish, Beef, Vegetable…etc that served on hot dish counter.

Start with fresh salad?

Assorted fresh salad condiment that can be add on.

Looking at the wide range of appetizer

Make it local by add in sambal instead of typical dressing, Thousand Island, Mayonnaise is boring. Sambal that is signature sauce that added to local salad which taste extremely spicy but trust me, it is very addictive.

If you are duck lover like I do then you must not miss the Roasted Duck, it is one of the best roasted duck I have among the many Hotel buffet I had, it is even comparable to road side hawker stall. Duck meat is perfectly marinated to flavor and roasted to flavor, meat is juicy and flavorful. If you are not into duck then try the roasted chicken or roasted beef.

Assorted cracker available as well, use it to dip with curry is always the best.

If you are not into Ramadhan mood and looking for bread then this station won’t disappointed you with assorted bread.

March 17, 2016 Enqvist Leave a comment

Toh Soon cafe located at Penang Georgetown Campbell Street which are next to the famous Kimberley Street that has great hawker food such as the famous Kaoy Chiap and Dessert. In the morning Toh Soon Cafe which hide in a small alley are famous for their charcoal toast bun with their secret recipe of Kaya and butter. Another highlight is definitely the Hainan Coffee and Nasi Lemak.

While waiting for our bread and coffee, on every table there is Nasi Lemak and Kuih. Try the nasi lemak and love it so much, the chili paste is not too spicy while the crispy anchovies really taste good.

Different type of bread combination such as Hainan Bread, Coffee Marbel Bread, Wholemeal Bread and Chocolate Bread are available. Their signature homemade Kaya and Peanut Butter is a must order, it taste so good.

It is so crowded on weekend, most of it are tourist who came here to enjoy a cup of Penang coffee.

Well, if you have not enough food like us then walk across the road to Kimberly Market and look for this hawker that sell pork porridge. The deep fried pork intestine is so crispy and delicious, porridge are so smooth in texture as well.

Char Koay Teow inside coffee shop also not bad, reasonable price.

August 28, 2015 Enqvist Leave a comment

The RM50 million project to revive Penang iconic Komtar from Only World Group (OWG) has slowly surface and the upper floor of 59th and 60th is completed with Seafood Buffet Restaurant and Lounge. We have the chance to visit 59 Dining Room and truly impress by the awesome 360 degree view of Penang Island.

Lower ground entrance located beside Maybank and parking slot available at Komtar Parking or opposite multi level parking but honestly it is not so convenience and safe. Parking should be one of the improvement to carry out as it play a very key role for customer experience, parking lot close all lighting at 10.30pm and only kept a few light for those floor that still has car. Honestly it is not so pleasant experience collecting car at dark.
Anyhow, we are greeted with smile and escort by security to the lift that bring us up to 59th floor.

We are greeted again at 59th Floor Entrance with a wet towel and big smile, proceed further to the main hall of 59 Dining Room and all of us are shock with the awesome view. It is spectacular!

Iconic view from Komtar 59th Floor. Highly recommended to be here before 6pm to catch the awesome view before sunset, take a round walk of the building to view 360 of Penang.

Chili Crab

Chili Prawn

Butter Prawn

Kam Heong Crab still my favorite, the sauce has very strong dried shrimp taste and it taste even better than some seafood restaurant.

Miso Station

A big bowl meat, Chicken Char Siew taste so good that can easily beat Ayamas while the roasted Duck and Chicken are very moist and flavorful as well.

Fresh Local Fruits such as dragon fruits, papaya, watermelon, honey dew and longan.

Local food, is this for decoration only? Seem like no one dare to eat anything here, i wish to try the mangoesteen.

Big section of Dessert to finish up our meal, whole lot of different kind of dessert available and on top of that they do served fried ice cream and chocolate fountain.

Overall we are impress with the variety and food quality served here although we have heard some negative feedback before visit but seem like they have listen to customer and improve on it. I really enjoy dining here especially the great service from the crew, they really care for you and clean our used plate fast.

I am the lucky guy to be born on August and they even sing birthday song and gave me a big birthday cake, I feel so awkward and excited. So complicated. This must be the “highest” celebration I have so far. Thanks for the crew for your wish and birthday song, it truly memorable.
