Love Nutrient Colonial Kitchen Hainanese Cuisine @ Burmah Road, Pulau Tikus, Penang.

H5N1 novel youngster on the block, Colonial Kitchen Hainanese Cuisine is 1 of the latest eateries at Pulau Tikus (opposite Wisma Perkeso). The identify serves an unassuming as well as unabashed Hainanese card amongst or as well as then classic highlights such equally Hainanese Pies, Chicken Chop as well as Pork Chop etc. It has been receiving positive remarks since its opening. Colonial Kitchen has a elementary interior decor, non unnecessary frills but or as well as then basic tables as well as chairs (not fifty-fifty air-conditioner) but this does non halt gourmands from visiting the place; those who are inwards the know are especially contented amongst their home-made Pies. Prices are however, slightly on the higher side.



Mushroom Pie (Rm 7)


Traditional Hainanese Chicken Chop (Rm 20)

We were uncertain equally nosotros were non quite convinced yesteryear the expect of the Pies but to our surprise, the Mushroom Pie nosotros had was delicious. The pastry was flaky as well as buttery-fragrant, though non equally substantial equally nosotros would convey hoped (overly thin) but the filling was beyond amazing. The Chef has picked the correct size of Mushroom (thick as well as meaty ones), the texture was slightly bouncy as well as the season was well-nigh earthy. Together amongst the buttery pastry, the combination was toothsome.

Another traditional Hainanese please yesteryear Colonial Kitchen would last their Chicken Chop, served inwards the shape of a huge slice of Chicken Thigh amongst Worcestershire sauce as well as Baked Potatoes equally good equally Carrots. The meat was neither tender nor hard, the texture was but perfect (the agency I like) as well as the marination was spot on. The sauce however, registered mild flavors (might non last preferred yesteryear those who taste dishes amongst bold flavors); nosotros idea Rm twenty was a petty steep for that portion.
