Love Nutrient Koffiehouz @ Machine City, Bukit Mertajam, Penang.

Another firm past times 2F+ Coffee past times Yellow House at Sungai Ara, Koffiehouz takes accuse of a large unit of measurement at Auto City, a unit of measurement that is facing Lorong Perusahaan Maju 8 (behind Sakae Sushi). It's in all likelihood a niggling quieter over that side of Auto City in addition to it requires endeavour to locate Koffiehouz. The unit of measurement is well-covered inwards shades of dark, seemingly curious in addition to quiet... force the door in addition to you lot volition hold upward overwhelmed past times the interior decor. There are enough of mismatched knick knacks amongst an industrial touch. The card is minor but fun; the highlights are of course, the Toast-series that come upward inwards dissimilar forms (apart from the artisan coffee). It's a fun house to be, peculiarly amongst the spacious in addition to comfortable setting; a niggling playful but absolutely a pleasant house to pass the afternoon. 



[Set] Caramelized Apple amongst Toast in addition to a loving cup of Coffee (Rm 18)


Kingdom of Belgium Cheese Cake (Rm 10.90)

Hefty meals are non possible at Koffiehouz but their make of low-cal snacks are worth a try. For Rm xviii per set, you lot volition instruct yourself a loving cup of Hot imbibe (to select from their list) in addition to a choice from their Toast series. We opted for the sugariness version inwards lieu of the savory ones; the Caramelized Banana in addition to Toast was low-cal but generously garnished amongst fresh fruits (like Cherry Tomatoes, Strawberries in addition to Blueberries) in addition to of course, Caramelized Banana... flecked amongst toasted Almond Flakes. The Toast was buttered in addition to almost crispy, however, it did non duet good amongst the Caramelized Banana... equally though they were served separately. My guess: it was also dry out in addition to no sauce was at that spot to "link" them together (perhaps cream). It was soundless tasty nevertheless.

Over the display refrigerator at the counter, nosotros constitute Kingdom of Belgium Cheese Cake- a cake amongst three dissimilar layers: Chocolate flavored Sponge, sturdy Chocolate Brownie in addition to a layer of Cheese Cake. The texture was a niggling difficult but it was almost chocolaty, sugariness but non overly so; merely perfect to instruct amongst the fresh brew.

Love Nutrient Pelting Garden Bar, Cafe As Well As Eating Seat @ Pulau Tikus, Penang.

Hidden behind a row of store houses at Burmah Road (right side past times side to Bangkok Lane) is a large chemical compound with contemporary decors in addition to design. It has 3 dissimilar parts- a quaint Cafe near to the primary entrance, a retro Bar inwards the middle followed past times a vivid in addition to airy eatery towards the end. It is apparent that they accept seat inwards about efforts to brand the house looks great; massive choices available in addition to thence don't hold upward overwhelmed past times the selection (there are a few alternatives for a goodness cutting of steak!) in addition to they are best at knocking out grilled meats. Rain Garden bets heavily on the weather: at that spot are no air-conditioners in addition to the line element would hold upward their al-fresco garden surrounded past times greens, the stance is farther accompanied past times the urbanized high-rise edifice inwards the vicinity... the stance for sure does non disappoint. This however, may hold upward frustrating for the heat-intolerant if the conditions goes stuffy. While the house is ideal for a beer & chill-session, nosotros thought at that spot could hold upward about minimal family music to dice on the atmosphere to a greater extent than relaxed.



Chicken Caesar Salad (Rm 20.90)


Fish Concasse (Rm 28.90)

Veggie lovers' favorite- Caesar Salad, Rain Garden pairs it with Grilled Chicken. The meat was unbelievably tender in addition to succulent, worked perfectly good with the crunchy greens. The sauce may hold upward a petty creamy for about but it was perfectly fine to larn along with the meat in addition to greens. Fish Concarsee on the other hand, did non stand upward out. It was grilled Dory Fillet, served with tangy Tomato-based sauce. Taste-wise... it was alright but the part could hold upward larger in addition to the dish was non a striking with us. I'd in all likelihood larn for something else for that cost tag. 


It excites us similar a tiddler when nosotros larn to encounter the sizzling pan inwards action, it was covered inwards foil... inwards the shape of a minimum Volcano. The Volcano Beef Sizzling (Rm 35.90) drenched inwards Hot in addition to Spicy Sze Chuan-influenced sauce was delicious, it was expertly seasoned to the correct dot (not overly salted) with a hint of spiciness. In fact, nosotros thought it tin hold upward a dandy dish to larn with Rice. Though nosotros accept asked for Medium Rare but the 2nd it was served to us, they were fully cooked. Despite of that, the meat was silent pleasingly tender in addition to soft to the bite. As much equally nosotros dear the dish, we'd prefer them to serve the entire steak equally a whole... instead of serving them inwards pieces.

Love Nutrient Lum Khee Wan Ton Mee (林记云吞面) @ Kulim, Kedah.

There's a famous Wan Ton Mee specialist inwards the serene town of Kulim, a curt 10 minute-drive away from Bukit Mertajam (read my previous nutrient trip of Kulim here). Lum Khee has been inwards trace of piece of occupation organisation for to a greater extent than than a decade as well as has been receiving spotlights from the traditional media. Relentless queues tin endure seen every bit early on every bit vii am, nosotros were at that topographic point at 8 am on a sun morning time as well as nosotros had to hold back for xx minutes earlier our plough or perhaps, it was their cooking speed. Probably the regulars are used to the relaxed measuring hither as well as create non demand heed waiting... nevertheless, Lum Khee serves upwards a decent plate of comforting ageless delicacy that would non out of fashion. Lum Khee Wan Ton Mee tin endure industrial plant life correct contrary to the market, inwards the pump of Kulim, Kedah.



Lum Khee's Wan Ton Mee (Rm 4.50/ Large) sees a generous serving of crispy Pork Lards, the noodles were non every bit springy every bit nosotros would bring hoped but the fragrance of the Pork Lards was bold. We would prefer the Soy Sauce to endure to a greater extent than saline besides but if you lot are looking for a plate of old-school styled Wan Ton Mee alongside aplenty of Pork Lards, Lum Khee is your choice.

Love Nutrient Hygge @ Dark-Green Hall Road, Georgetown, Penang.

Previously Kaffa... the prominent corner lot is right away taken upwardly past times Hygge, a cafe cum eating seat that serves promising in addition to mouth-watering Western-Fusion dishes. We did non expression Hygge to churn out approximately lip smacking dishes, belike the outside did non appear every bit encouraging every bit it used to be- deadening in addition to non every bit vibrant every bit earlier (a contradiction to the cite Hygge- pronounced every bit Hoo-Gah, which literally way cozy inwards Danish). They belike demand to produce something to brighten it upwardly a little; never heed on that, nosotros were to a greater extent than than happy alongside the lineament of food. Prices are around affordable in addition to wallet-friendly; their 20% opening advertisement (applicable to all items) is specially note-worthy, which slashes the prices past times 1/5. We had a good, thick slab of Steak for Rm 24 nett (original price- Rm 30). There are also a multifariousness of brunch items... that appear conventional but Hygge has for certain added approximately interesting twists to them. The opening advertisement is valid until farther notice.



Sirloin Steak (Rm 30)


Pomelo Salad (Rm 18)

We could non larn out our eyes from the discussion "Sirloin Steak"... brilliantly priced at Rm thirty nett per portion. We doubted the portion, nosotros idea it may travel something sparse in addition to non worth-trying but nosotros were surprised to come across what served on our table. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 char-grilled thick slab of Sirloin Steak laying on exceed of a bed of Mashed Potatoes, Asparagus, Grilled Shitake Mushrooms in addition to Vine-Tomatoes. We asked for Medium in addition to it was a piffling overcooked but the texture was soundless juicy in addition to around succulent. It was specially satisfying, the flavors were expertly combined, the Black Pepper Sauce was thick in addition to flavorful plenty to complement the Steak... the sides were carefully crafted every bit well. We could non inquire for more.... for a mere Rm 24 (after the 20% opening discount).

Assuage the guilt past times having approximately low-cal in addition to refreshing greens; Hygge's Pomelo Salad was toothsome, alongside aplenty of Arugula (dressed alongside Lemon, Honey in addition to Olive Oil), Pomelo, toasted Walnuts in addition to Parmesan Cheese. It was low-cal in addition to slow on the palate, though nosotros would prefer to a greater extent than Pomelo. The Arugula leaves were real fresh every bit well... it does brand a goodness starter nevertheless.


Berries in addition to Flapjack (Rm 16.90)


Brioche French Toast (Rm 17)

Hygge's brunch items were amazing either, the Berries in addition to Flapjack could brand whatever Pancake-lovers weak inwards the knees. It was around fluffy in addition to soft... alongside Maple Syrup generously drizzled over the airy-soft Pancakes in addition to garnished alongside a dollop of Vanilla Ice Cream every bit good every bit approximately Berries (Strawberries in addition to Blueberries). We honey the texture of the Pancake, at to the lowest degree a few times fluffier than the conventional ones; instant to none inwards Penang. It would travel corking if they could come upwardly out alongside to a greater extent than funky combination... belike something similar Bacon alongside Maple Syrup to larn alongside the Pancakes.

If y'all are the French Toast-type of diners for Brunch, larn for their Brioche French Toast. We were non convinced alongside the presentation, nosotros idea it was a mess in addition to soggy slice of flour. We were in i trial once again proven wrong. It was in addition to thus soft that it literally melted inwards the oral cavity (in a goodness way) but it was non monotonous; the crunchy chemical factor (Corn Flakes) saved the day. Complementing the French Toast was Banana-Syrup, a beautifully cooked concoction that packed a flavorful punch. It may travel a piffling likewise rich in addition to sweetness for i to complete exclusively though.
