Having been inwards draw organisation for years, Wei Liang is sure enough a local favorite; the Chinese-noodle articulation is constantly crowded as well as never falls brusk of customers. Gourmands who are inwards the know volition brand their agency at that spot for their braised Beef Brisket Noodle, an incredibly tasty Cantonese-influenced delight that is uncommon inwards Penang. But it does non actually affair if you lot are non a large fan of Beef, their Pork Rib Noodle as well as Pork Leg Noodle are goodness plenty to delight whatever stubborn palates. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 serial setback is however, the strange draw organisation hours... likely meant for early on risers, the possessor started the twenty-four hr menstruum early on as well as the noodles oft sold out past times noon; as well as thence the best fourth dimension is take in is likely inwards the early on morning.

Beef Brisket Noodle/ 牛腩面 (Rm 7.50/ large)

Tender as well as deliciously succulent, the spiced-Beef Brisket is ladled over a mound of springy Wan Ton Mee. Unlike well-nigh Beef Brisket soup, Wei Liang's comes inwards a thick, translucent-starchy gravy that allows it to cling on the noodles. It may look bold but the dish was expertly seasoned as well as flavored, amongst a mellow but discernible Beefy flavor at the end. The existent describe was the perfectly cooked Radish, soft yet maintaining the bite. Be careful on the portion, though  ordering 'small portion' may look a trivial underwhelming but the constituent gets enormously large for the 'large portion'; as well as thence produce innovation accordingly.

Love Nutrient Li Bao Tang (立寶堂) @ Armenian Street, Georgetown, Penang.

Ditch the pretentious too hipstery desserts too become dorsum to the classic ones, respect your traditional Chinese elixir at Li Bao Tang (立寶堂), a build dedicated to serve timeless Chinese sweetness treats that are believed to behave medicinal health effects. The build has long-established inwards Penang too has been churning out Chinese Herbal Tea or Gui Ling Gao (龟苓膏) but their recent expansion has an interesting twist to it. The newly opened branch at Armenian Street (opposite the famous "little children on bicycle" mural) brings you lot dorsum to Hong Kong inwards 1960's. Not alone that it is well-furnished alongside fancy wallpapers, it has about existent gadgets to heighten the sense too. Expect to come across about retro saloon setup too a fashionably nostalgic Mahjong tabular array alongside a spittoon placed side past times side to it; piece they select aught to produce alongside the food, it certain adds about marks to the dining experience. Though the card seems great, to a greater extent than than of the items are non available (at to the lowest degree they were non available on my visit). If multifariousness is non what you lot attempt for, it's a fun house to view too to select your portion of the nourishing too invigorating Tong Sui.

Pear alongside Lily Bulb Dessert (Rm 6)


Osmanthus-Lily Jelly (Rm 4)

All items nether "Wellness Stew" tin hand the sack hold upward served either Hot or Chilled, the Purple Sweet Potatoes alongside White Fungus is a skilful variant to the conventional Sweet Potato dessert. Taste-wise, they were rather identical but the Purple Sweet Potatoes carried a bolder sweetness. The Pear alongside Lily dessert paled when inwards comparing alongside the Purple Sweet Potatoes, it carried a peculiar acidity too lacked of the sweetness Apricot kernels. But no, I am non complaining for that price.

Sargeant-Major Fish & Wedges (Rm 28.80)


360's Beef Brisket Sliders (Rm 24.80)


Nanna's Herbed Lamb Envelopes (Rm 22.80)

For a mere Rm 28.80, nosotros were surprised to honour a generous portion of Sea Bass Fish northward Chips served atop of Quinoa. The batter was expertly done with a overnice crusty texture too the meat was pleasantly firm. The existent depict of the dish was the Quinoa which carried a tangy-citrus touch; a dish that we'd honey to accept our lodge repeated! 

The 360' Beef Brisket Sliders paled when inward comparing with the Fish northward Chips. Though it comes inward three dissimilar burgers too flavors, our untrained palate could non discern the meaning differences betwixt those 3. While nosotros unanimously agreed that the Beef was perfectly cooked with soft-tender texture, nosotros too idea that they leaned towards the salty side. The side of Corn Wedges was nevertheless, vivid too tasty. It was a niggling odd than the ordinary Wedges, non as crisp but with a delightful Corn-flavor.


Stevedore Soy Chicken Stew (Rm 18.80)


Baba's Sambal King Prawn Noodles (Rm 26.80)


Avocado/ Mushroom Charred Bread (Rm 17.80)

Those with oriental palate powerfulness opt for the Stevedore Soy Chicken Stew, a Korean-Chinese influenced dish served using sizzling hot pot. The Chicken Thigh was outset stewed with Soy sauce too served together with Chinese Spinach, doused over with Soy sauce too Ghee Hiang's Sesame Oil. It was a flavorful dish, non solely on the palate but the fragrance of the Sesame Oil was as bold. It was an intimate dish that nigh Chinese diners would live able to relate. Just nosotros idea the dish was a niggling overwhelming, the side dish of Acar-Acar was at that spot to cutting through the greasiness too innovate simply about other refreshing dimension to the dish. 

Baba's Sambal King Prawn Noodle is a goodness replacement to the commons Pasta dish. It uses Teels' home-made Sambal too for sure resembles Mee Goreng; but create non expect downward this dish, it packs a powerful fiery hot punch. Certainly a goodness palate-teaser to percentage with the diners.

Love Nutrient Lan's Corner Ikan Bakar @ Tanjung Bungah, Penang.

Imagine the freshest seafood on a sizzling hot pan doused over a thick, spicy-sweet sauce as well as laissez passer on it a quick stir fry; when served amongst a squelch of Lime juice, yous know there's a soft location for the Malaysian inwards you. Since its opening inwards Oct 2016, Lan's Corner Ikan Bakar that sits on a niggling loma at Tanjung Bungah (right adjacent to the post service constituent as well as Sunshine Bay Seafood Restaurant) has garnered an appreciate following. It is known to dish out only about of the best Ikan Bakar inwards the neighborhood. There are a few cooking methods to the local seafood-produce listed on the menu, depending on your preference but we'd recommend their 'bakar' mode amongst home-made sweet-spicy sauce. Prices may non last inexpensive but surely commensurate amongst the percentage as well as lineament (especially freshness). Plan your take in hither early on every bit long hold off is expected afterwards vii pm (and express parking space).



Sotong Bakar/ Grilled Cuttlefish (Rm 25)


Ikan Pari Bakar/ Grilled Stingray (Rm 15)

Both grilled Cuttlefish as well as Stingray may appear identical but the sauces were different. The grilled Cuttlefish possessed an indelible sweetness, the sauce leans toward the sweeter side amongst a sleek spiciness as well as a pleasant smokiness. The Cuttlefish was expertly cooked to the correct doneness- slightly chewy but non difficult to the bite. The sauce was boldly flavored as well as would run good over white rice. Grilled Stingray is only about other signature dish of theirs. The sauce was i time to a greater extent than sugariness but the oestrus was to a greater extent than apparent than the other dish, it tin last addictive. The meat however, was a niggling tough to our liking; we'd surely prefer it to last softer as well as juicier (overcooked perhaps). Though nosotros were able to say the differences betwixt the sauce, it became monotonous towards the end.
