Ceki is a Nonya Cuisine Restaurant, serving some of the authentic Nyonya food. Food here is tasty but i feel that the price is expensive and their serving portion is small. Service is good and food serving is fast.
[Non-halal] Salted fish bones gulai anyone? Baba Phang was one of our favourite discoveries from our Penang trip.
The latter which has spicy beehoon with prawns, tofu, and bunga kantan (ginger torch flower) is given a fresh finish with droplets of calamansi lime juice.
Both Nyonya Kerabu Bee Hoon and Nyonya Lam Mee were good but the Kerabu Bee Hoon fared better. They were very generous with the toppings, every mouthful of the Vermicelli Noodles carried some dried Shrimp. The additional touch of Shallots and a squeeze Lime introduced a refreshing layer to the dish. Everything was well-seasoned and the flavor combo was bold and delicious; probably one of the best Kerabu Bee Hoon I've tasted.
There are plenty of dishes to dig into and the Stir-fried Blood Cockles with Garlic is a must-have dish. The briny sweetness of cockles, oil, and garlic is all that is needed to have the simple dish done right.
Here's the location.
Tang Xiao Ya's signature Roasted Duck was served to us warm, right from the oven. The skin did not possess the very much anticipated crispiness; it was the soft but greasy type. Underneath the Duck was a pool of juice. The meat was extremely tender with a burst of meat juice... it was delicately seasoned with a discernible presence of five-spice powder. The Duck was good on its own but even better with the home-made, tangy Garlic-Chili sauce
Equally delicious was the Kapitan Chicken... the Curry packed a powerful punch with in-depth flavors that would go very well with Rice.
If you have exotic taste buds and know how to appreciate Petai, their Sambal Petai is a must-order. The Sambal was beautifully cooked with in-depth flavors- spicy and savory with a mellow sourness; the Prawns were plump and fresh, the concoction was delicious and perfectly spooned over rice
One Nyonya dish that gives a dose of eggy and creamy richness is the Otah-Otah. You will probably have heard of this dish in which fish is steamed with a mixture of herbs, chili, egg and coconut milk. Mildly spicy, and pungent, the custardy dish is a perfect combination with white rice.
