JJ Cakes & Swissroll, Ipoh

Posted on December 14, 2010December 14, 2010 by Shireen

My trip to Penang and Ipoh this time round had been very fruitful. I managed to savor almost everything that was on my ‘to eat’ list, except for the hawkers’ food at Kwong Heng and House of Mirrors @ Ipoh Old Town. This time, we managed to drop by JJ Cakes and Swissroll and grabbed…

Miraku Japanese Restaurant @ G Hotel, Gurney Drive, Penang

Posted on December 10, 2010 by Shireen

On our first night in Penang, we had dinner at Miraku Japanese Restaurant at G Hotel, which was where we stayed at. We had Japs instead of Penang food as the skies looked gloomy and a heavy downpour was looming, so we thought that it would be safer to dine in instead of going out…

Lunch At TGIF @ Mid Valley Megamall

Posted on July 23, 2010 by Shireen

We were at TGIF @ Mid Valley Megamall last Sunday. Though there were not many patrons, we waited for almost half an hour before food was finally served. Hubs and Alycia, the 2 Worldcup fans watched football on the wall-mounted TVs. We were quite disappointed with the taste of the food. Hubs said that the food served…

Hot Pot Bone Essence Steamboat at Jalan Kuchai Maju is our latest favorite steamboat restaurant. The first time hubby tried this steamboat was with his friends, for supper.

Brunch At Sri Neela’s Indian Restaurant @ Taman Desa, Old Klang Road

Posted on April 1, 2010 by Shireen

My 2 older girls love Indian food and anything that is spicy. However we don’t always eat spicy food for fear of ‘heatiness’. My 2 girls have inherited their daddy’s DNA; they get throat infections and ‘heatiness’ very easily. They were worse when they were younger. Now that they are a little grown up and their…

Scrumptious Hawkers’ Food

Posted on January 23, 2010January 23, 2010 by Shireen

2 Sundays ago, we had some scrumptious hawkers’ food from Paramount O&S coffee shop (take-out). I’ve always wanted to eat at O&S coffee shop but with 3 young kids, the idea of sweating it out while digging into the food at a sardine-packed restaurant with dirty loos always turn the idea off me. So whenever I crave for the hawkers’ food (especially…

Posted on December 21, 2009December 21, 2009 by Shireen

We tasted the most famous Penang Road Famous Cendol and ice kacang during our stay in Penang. When hubs drove to the lane where the stall was, I asked him to drop the idea of getting down the car to join in the looooooong bee line at the stall. It was scorching hot and we…

Goh Huat Seng Steamboat @ Kimberly Street Penang

Posted on December 19, 2009 by Shireen

On the first night of our 2-nite 3-day stay in Penang, we had Teowchew steamboat at Goh Huat Seng Restaurant @ Kimberly Street.

Posted on November 1, 2009November 1, 2009 by Shireen

The girls had a very pleasant surprise last night when half way through dinner, daddy (a basketball buff) came home after watching a basketball tourney with a bag of goodies for them. There were 4 devil’s horns headbands, one of which is battery-operated headgear with lights, a huge plastic toy axe, 2 huge foams in the shape…
