Kuey Teow Soup @ Sri Nibong Cafe

2. Kuey Teow Soup @ Sri Nibong Cafe

Sri Nibong Cafe is located somewhere near the junction of Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah and Jalan Bukit Kecil 1. There are plenty of food stalls that sell delicious food, and the Kuey Teow Soup is undoubtedly the best there. I can say that this is the best Kuey Teow Noodle Soup I have ever tried. The best part of is the taste of the soup which has a strong sweetness of the meat, minced pork. I believe that the boss cooks the soup with a good amount of meat, that's why the soup is so abundant of pork fragrance. I personally like to ask for extra minced meat. Besides, the boss isn't stingy at all in putting the ingredients. There is so much minced pork, fish ball, half boiled egg served with. This is what makes their noodle taste so delicious.

I went there quite a few times with my USM friends. We like it so much. Since it is so famous and delicious, and thus, you can expect to wait for at least half an hour every time additionally the boss actually cooks it bowl by bowl. Despite the long wait, it doesn't discourage us from visiting the cafe.

The bunch of friends who are here with me so often. The table is still empty as it is really need to wait a long Q.

Besides, there is also a toast stall that sells a variety sets of different toast bread. All of them are nice.

Recommendation : luncheon meat burger. 

The burger is served with luncheon meat, egg and cheese. It has a  heavy scent of cheese and the meat that allures us to keep eating it, simply awesome.

Best Nasi Lemak @ Subaidah

Tips for USMers.

It's glad to study in USM, where it's really easy to get some appetizing foods, pleasant places and the best thing is it is located in this beautiful Penang island. I would like to share some of the best food around USM that I fancy. Don't doubt me, you will never regret to pay a visit.

1. Nasi Lemak @ Subaidah, Perkaka
I believe that one of the favorite hanging place is Mamak. Most USMers go to Khaleel, because it is the nearest to our hostel. However, I prefer Subaidah, which is located at Perkaka. It is always crowded especially when there are any football games on Live.

The most ordered and remarkable food here is -- Nasi Lemak. It starts to serve at 10.30pm. The average waiting time is minimum half an hour. So, it is recommended to go earlier to avoid the long queue.

The Nasi Lemak is served with fried egg, cucumber, peanut and fried chicken. The most scrumptious is their fried chicken. It is crisply appealing. Besides, I like the fragrance of Pandan, and Lemak of the rice. The rice is a lil sticky and moisture which is my favorite type too. I am sure that this is irresistible and the taste will allure you to try again whenever you feel hungry at night.

Undeniably this is a heavy supper. Thus, it is not suitable to eat contently  for healthy cautious. * even though we eat quite often during study week =.= *

Starbucks Drive-Thru @ Tanjong Tokong Penang

I believed there are many people who felt extremely excited to know the Starbucks Drive Thru at Penang has newly opened in Tanjong Tokong Penang. I like the environment there so much. Both inside and outside of their shop is equipped with tables and chairs. There are few sofas outside, and classical music is being played in the background make it a comfortable atmosphere for gathering or even study.

We ordered the new Hojicha Frapuccino. Well, the taste isn't that well *for me. It does have a strong fragrance of tea, but I felt it still lacks of something to make it nicer. Maybe personally I prefer coffee more than tea. I still prefer Caramel Frappucino and Hot chocolate. Both of these taste better with the pleasing aromatic coffee.

Toh Soon Cafe 多春茶座

This is a simple yet full of traditional atmosphere coffee shop is located in a back lane in Campbell Street, George Town. They serve the classic "Nan Yang Breakfast" like toast (Roti Bakar with kaya and butter), Half- Boiled Egg, Coffee, Nasi Lemak, Curry Puff and so forth.

I have been there for few times, I felt it was just a normal coffee shop. While, I visited again yesterday with my boyfriend. And that was the very first time I felt that their toast and coffee were so nice. Seriously delicious. It is absolutely worthwhile to try. And this is a favorite cafe to many of my friends too.

Some shooting while waiting for the food.

1. Here the foods....

The Toast

1.The Toast, it is baked in a traditional way - with charcoal. The taste of charcoal baked toast is totally 
different from the one from oven, it is crunchier and smell greater. In addition, the combination of aromatic Kaya and Butter is always the best match to "Roti Bakar". 

The Coffee

ii) Cup of Coffee - It was too sweet for me. While it was just fine when I dunked in the toast and the " "sweetness" was just perfectly diluted.

Dip the toast in the Coffee

The half boiled egg
iii) The half boiled Egg - this is also another classic "Nan Yang style Breakfast" that I couldn't miss, adding some soy sauce and some peppers are must.

A complete set of "Nan Yang Style Breakfast" that customers normally dine here.

Another dish.
Normally they put few packs of Nasi Lemak on the table. You can take it yourself when you would like one.
The Nasi Lemak looks spicy where you can see all the Chili when first unwrap it. But, it is not too spicy. The Ikan Bilis are too salty for me, but the chili is quite nice. And I like the strong Pandan aroma on the rice.

Lastly I want to show how I usually eat the toast. Dip it inside the half boiled egg. Some may feel it is disgusting, but please believe me, it is just a perfect match. You can savor the whole essence of "Nan Yang Style Breakfast" in one time.
  

The perfect match

There are photos displayed on the wall showed the visitation of Pg Chief Minister before. 
The first time I was here the service of the staffs were very rude. They were not friendly at all. I told myself I would not pay a visit again, who knew I came again.

However, after trying for a few times (well, was forced to, as my friends urged me to bring them there), I felt the attitude of the staffs becoming better. Maybe because of the service change and I felt the dishes are getting nicer as well. 

The cafe is always crowded and most of the time we need to stand beside and wait for a vacant table.

It is quite hard to find parking here, if you’re driving, try to turn into Lorong Kampung Malabar (next to Campbell Street). It is easier to find parking over here and you just need to walk for less than 100m.

The Twelve Cups @ Beach Street Penang

I found another cafe selling crepe cake in Penang -->> The Twelve Cups. 

It is strategically located at Jalan Pantai (Beach Street near to Bank Street, George Town )
I am pretty sure that many people are happy to hear about this. 

Beach street where i took once at night 

The twelve cups cafe

Last week, Shirlyn recommended us to come for a light tea break.

The Twelve Cups is a new cafe in Georgetown. The atmosphere here is warming and it is definitely a good place to hang out at noon. You can escape yourself from the scorching hot weather with a cup of coffee.

Next, our orders. Motcha Crepe Cake and Hokkaido Milk. I preferred the Motcha flavor as compare to the Hokkaido milk. But Shirlyn, preferred the Hokkaido milk. She claimed that she liked the heavier taste of the milk flavor
. 

The texture of the crepe cakes are more or less same with the crepe cake in Nadeje, Humble Beginnings or Crepe Cake in Northam Beach Cafe. The mixture of the multi layer cake and cream distinguish it from the others. Where we can feel the multi-layer of the slices cakes in between the cream. As usual I like the way it melt and swim to stomach. 

Motcha RM10.90

Hokkaido Milk RM10.90

There are a shelf displays quite a few unique collection which have made the environment more attractive. Below is a wall paint. I like it so much. It shows we should treat everyday a wholly new dawn, new day and new feeling and the most important is  | I am Feeling GOOD |~ for everyday

Stay tune, there was another best Surprise enriched our day.

In a sudden, the waiter approached us and served us an ice cream with espresso topping when we were about to finish our cakes. He told us that we were lucky to be the 12th customer of them on the day. Everyday, the 12th customer in their shop is entitled a free ice cream. It's was so great to us. 

The mocha topping on the ice cream is filled with coffee fragrance. This is my favorite. I like the ice cream as well, it is as smooth as Mc Donald ice cream. It is less sweeter when the sweetness is diversified by the slightly bitter coffee.

This is the back door

This Trishaw displayed at the shop behind The Twelve Cups. I saw it when I went to the washing room located rights behind the Cafe. It wasn't so special, but I liked the antique feels of this photo.
