Love Nutrient Da Seo Korean Eating Theatre @ Queensbay Mall, Penang.

Formerly Omaya, the spot has since been replaced past times Da Seo Korean Restaurant... a novel Pork-Free Korean restaurant, alongside lesser choices. The human relationship betwixt the ii brands remains unclear but what nosotros could say was the similarities on the offering. Though in that location is a cutting on the menu, the signature dishes stay untouched. Neither the prices nor the interior decor did non modify much either but the character deteriorated together with did non come across upward to our expectations....



Spicy Boneless Chicken Cubes (Rm 29.90)


Seafood Army Stew (Rm 49.90)


Kimchi Shimson Stew (Rm 48.90)


Spicy Chicken Wings (Rm 24.90)


Korean Lunch Box (Rm 17.90)

The signature Spicy Boneless Chicken Cubes was even then alright... at to the lowest degree it lived upward to our expectations. The Chicken -Cheese combination was lovely; similar close Korean Fried Chicken, it carried an indelible sweetness alongside a hint of spiciness. Equally proficient was the Korean Lunch Box... a concoction of Korean Kimchi, Seaweed Flakes, Chicken Sausages together with a Sunny Side Up. The sense of savour was pretty much straight-forward... though uncomplicated but it was close satisfying. 

The disappointments were the stews.... both were a let-down. The Seafood Army Stew barely registered whatever Korean element, except that the dollop of Korean Spicy sauce. The Seafood was non every bit fresh every bit nosotros would convey hoped either; for that serving component division at that price, nosotros idea it was a rip off. Kimchi Shimson Stew offered to a greater extent than Cheeses but the sense of savour did non shine; non also certain on the argue for this drib of character but it was a disappointing meal.

Love Nutrient Xin Fu Wei Dao Cafe (幸福味道糖水小屋) @ Weld Quay, Georgetown, Penang.

The crowd from this nondescript restaurant is to a greater extent than frequently than non made upwards of tourists... whom casually strolling along Weld Quay or afterwards their catch to the clan jetties but create non last frightened yesteryear the unusual crowd. Xin Fu Wei Dao Cafe (幸福味道糖水小屋) is genuinely an restaurant that is friendly fifty-fifty to the locals... y'all volition detect a huge banner hanging exterior promoting its big attain of desserts together with thence naturally those are their specialties.

The dining infinite is a footling snug but y'all volition surprised that business office of it is air-conditioned.

Tau Hua (Rm 2)

Loh Bak/ Spring Roll/ Chai Tao Kuih/ Durian Fritter (Rm 9.80 for all these)

While Xin Fu Wei Dao Cafe's Lam Mee together with Hokkien Mee were non actually jaw-droppingly good, they did non disappoint either. The Lam Mee broth carried the essential flavors together with worked perfectly good amongst the lip-burning Sambal Belacan. On the thirst quenchers, the Peach Resin Tong Sui was affordably priced at Rm 3.50 but they did non skimp on the toppings... every spoon of it contained loads of goodies similar Sweet Potatoes, Longan, Dried Jujube, Sago, Ginkgo and Peach Resins. The sum of Ice was only alright as well... at to the lowest degree nosotros did non experience the dessert was watered down. 

If luck is on your side, y'all larn to savor the famous Penang Hill Chai Tau Kuih either... offered yesteryear a mobile stall correct exterior the place. Everything is made to gild together with thence await a footling hold back but it's definitely worth it. The Chai Tau Kuih was unbelievably crunchy on the edges together with creamy inside... the Loh Bak was as delicious together with meaty as well, though I would skip on the Durian Fritter... the batter was likewise thick to our liking.

Love Nutrient Sungai Kob Leisure Farm Eating Theatre (喜洋洋河鲜农场餐馆) @ Karangan, Kulim, Kedah.

Escape the metropolis crowd in addition to caput over to Karangan, a quiet-remote expanse off Kulim Kedah... some an hr movement from Georgetown. Karangan is surrounded yesteryear many Palm Trees, driving into the expanse feels similar entering jungles but the expanse houses many hidden Seafood restaurants. One of the latest additions is Sungai Kob Leisure Farm (喜洋洋河鲜农场餐馆), opened inward belatedly 2017, the farm is a practiced five infinitesimal movement away from the primary route of Karangan (via bumpy roads surrounded amongst Palm Trees in addition to woods). The setting definitely deserves a big "WOW", the dining expanse is beautifully decorated amongst many Chinese elements; particularly note-worthy is the wooden hut built along the river... allowing diners to boot back, relax in addition to bask the sumptuous repast amidst the greens. On the menu, the eatery proffers a bang-up diversity of Chinese dishes amongst bang-up emphasis on freshwater fish. The criterion pick out handgrip of of Patin, Catfish, Tilapia are in that location but if y'all convey an extra dollar to splurge, expensive alternative similar Empurau is also available.

Salted Egg Salmon Skin 咸蛋黄鱼皮 (Rm 18/ small)


Claypot Farm Chicken amongst Chinese Yellow Wine 黄酒鸡 (Rm 30/ small)


Braised Noodles amongst Seafood 沙煲海鲜面 (Rm 15)


Deep Fried Tofu served amongst Pumpkin Sauce 南瓜豆腐 (Rm 15)

We decided to remain safe yesteryear having Steamed Catfish... fresh, meaty amongst delicious pockets of fats; nosotros hold off null less from a fresh Catfish. H5N1 compassion that it was weighed at 750 grams, anything inward a higher house 1.2 kg would hold out better... for the meliorate meat-fat ratio. The Salted Egg Salmon Skin was a prissy variant to the otherwise mutual Deep Fried Fish Skin; the flavors were spot on though nosotros would prefer to a greater extent than Curry Leaves, for the bolder alluring smell (better speed upward the eating procedure lest they turned soggy). Braised Noodles amongst Seafood in addition to Deep Fried Tofu amongst Pumpkin Sauce were as good, both were beautifully executed, at to the lowest degree they did non disappoint. The Claypot Farm Chicken amongst Chinese Yellow Wine on the other hand, was a allow down. The Chicken was likewise dry out in addition to crude oil inward texture, as though nosotros were biting rubber. The flavor-combo did non run for us either, the Yellow Wine chemical component did non shine. It reminded us of the Taiwanese three Cup Chicken sans Basil, definitely null to produce amongst Yellow Wine (a misnomer).

Love Nutrient Penne & Spaghetti @ Raja Uda, Butterworth, Penang.

The name- Penne & Spaghetti speaks it all, it's a house that would excite all Pasta lovers but what amazing is non the carte but the flexibility of the pasta combination equally good equally its shockingly wallet-friendly toll tags. Apart from the criterion pasta dishes, the eatery allows diners to customize their ain combination of Pasta, sauce as well as toppings.

Seafood as well as Smoked Duck Penne amongst Pesto Sauce (Rm 18)


Mixed Vegetables Penne amongst Japanese Sesame Sauce (Rm 12)


Salted Egg Chicken amongst Japanese Curry Spaghetti (Rm 12)

Plant-based eaters or the weight-watchers could larn for Mixed Vegetables Penne amongst Japanese Sesame Sauce... beautifully cooked Penne dressed amongst Japanese Goma sauce as well as served amongst stir fried Vegetables. Almost similar a Salad but loaded amongst Carbs. Equally skilful was Seafood as well as Smoked Duck Penne amongst Pesto Sauce, a concoction of Pesto sauce, Seafood, Smoked Duck as well as Penne. Unlike the green Pesto sauce, Penne & Spaghetti's rendition was milder on the Basil flavor but to a greater extent than to the cheesy element. 

The Salted Egg Chicken amongst Japanese Curry Spaghetti was less-impressive. The Japanese Curry felt a niggling likewise powdery as well as likewise thick, it was a niggling likewise dense on the palate. The Salted Egg Chicken was alright but powerfulness hold upwards over-seasoned.
