All above taste awesome and super delicious, especially Bee Hun Soup which is extremely strong in flavor. The best part of Xiang Yun dishes is the “meat” are nicely done texture and flavor.
Xiang Yun Vegetarian Delight (香雲素食坊) is one of the few vegetarian shops in Penang that also have elements of a café.
Visiting Xiang Yun Vegetarian Delight 香云素食坊 for the first time, I was pleasantly surprised by its approach of using vegetarian ingredients and making them into palate pleasing meal. Located on the first floor of Vantage in Tanjong Tokong, Penang, this is the third Xiang Yun outlet to open in Penang, after two other locations at Kompleks Lebuh Nipah and I-Avenue.
The star dish of the day was the Fried Chicken... available in both original flavor and Spicy sauce. Both were good in its own way but the original stood out. The outer layer was crisp and addictive while the inner meat was reasonably seasoned with plump, tender meat. The rest were alright but certainly did not disappoint.
Bodhi Tree Cafe is the place for nice Vegetarian. Vegetarian's Bak Kut Teh is one of the signatures here
The Nyonya Spicy Soup is also known as “Ah Ma Spice Soup”. Be prepared for a light palate awakening with a bit of spiciness, tanginess and fragrant aroma of fresh mint.
We chose the Chasu Ramen served in deeply flavored pork broth with miso. Besides the topping of three thick pieces of chasu pork (Japanese-style braised pork belly), there is also an egg and seaweed.
We started of with their sushi where they have a wide choices of sushi to choose from. Their sushis pretty good where the ingredients are fresh. Grace love the sushi so much and wanted to add more of it.
Here's the location.
Kids can enjoy all kinds of fun activities and toys here!
SeaQueen Restaurant Straits Quay Tanjung Tokong
Overall, the dim sum was good and the ambiance was also very comfortable. There is a multi-storey carpark at Straits Quay. As for the price, I would say it is considered reasonable judging by its location and ambiance. The ingredients used to prepare the dim sum were also very fresh. This is the ideal place for people living nearby to have dim sum without the hassle of going to town.

Ah Wang Cafe is one of the Cafes that is hidden from the main road of Tanjung Tokong. Despite the hidden location, Ah Wang Cafe is well known to the public for its famous kaya butter toast and Hainanese coffee for 4 decades. The kaya here that is homemade, is very aromatic and rich in taste. The Hainanese coffee here is also very thick and nice in fragrance. Besides those classic delicacies, croissants, buns, and new mixed drinks are also the hot selling cakes here.
The specialty offered by Ah Wang cafeteria is their homemade kaya, sandwiching in between the breads. It comes with a custardy texture and the sweetness is well balanced. Often time, it comes accompanied with butter, or better known as Roti Kahwin. Their homemade kaya is available for sale too.
Ah Wang Cafe has been operated more than 30 years. It is famous due to it home made Kaya & toast. This cafe does not operate in air condition environment. UDA flat is sitting next to the sea, you can enjoy the sea wind while enjoying the toasted bread.
We were shocked but delighted to see the gigantic portion of this Caveman Platter which should be able to feed 3 to 5 person well. The Platter comes with 2 Chicken Sausages, 2 Pepper Lamb Sausages, 4 Chicken Kebabs, 4 Chicken Wings, as well as some Char-Grilled Lamb. Both the sausages were well-executed and delicious so does the Kebab.
Coffee Jelly 这是 No Eyed Deer 最著名的甜品。 我觉得还不错,因为我很喜欢喝咖啡。
Edo Ichi is kind of a luxury japanese restaurant. Though, i think they serve sorta bigger portion than Sakae Sushi and have better service.
It is so pack that we can’t get a table and have to sit at Sushi bar but better than waiting, the sushi bar is not small either it has great depth that enough to place a few plate so it still very comfort. Great environment with dim light and a big aquarium with sea water fish in it.
Next, we tried Edo Ichi’s Soft Shell Crab and Salmon Skin salad (RM18). This salad comes with a heavenly sesame dressing that left me wanting more! I love Asian style dressings so much more than regular mayo or Thousand Island.
Service is good and price is reasonable.
Spaghetti Aglio olio with Smoked Duck (RM 21) is cooked to al-dente with a generous quantity of smoked duck. Sprinkles of chili flakes may be a tad overwhelming as it rendered the entire dish tasted flat. Overall, the spaghetti was a tad greasy to enjoy.
Rather a playful combination, the Creamy Tomato Thai Sauce Spaghetti did not really hit us. We found the combo a little odd at the beginning... it was a medley of sweet, savory, sour and spiciness in one go but it was somehow weird to us. It was something like Thai Chili sauce with Carbonara Cream sauce; the Chicken was disappointingly average. Though tender, it did not really leave us with a very deep impression.
Seafood and Oyster lover, rejoice ! There is a new awesome place at Straits Quay, Penang for you to enjoy fresh Seafood and Oyster with nice view. Oyster N Seafood Bar By The Quay which is located at Straits Quay, Penang is serving fresh imported oysters and seafood. Chill by the quay side with great foods, drinks and live music !
This place is serving fresh oysters that fly from each corner of the world as long as they are fresh. Besides the oysters here the seafood is also caught fresh from the market daily. The Squid Ink Paella and the Crab Meat Avocado Tower here are also their signatures for those that love seafood.
Zi Tian Jiao Steamboat Restaurant at Tanjung Tokong was recently taken over by a local owner instead of foreigner. The dishes and pricing also have been revised and the ambiance and decoration are still maintained. The revision of the food makes this place easier to accept by locals as the spiciness is not as extreme. The price is also diners friendly after the revision. My personal favorites at this restaurant are Chang Sha White Meat and Spicy Chicken Cube.
紫天椒的装潢很古典高雅,但又不失时尚。
It’ll be one dining experience that you’ll never forget about.
It’s our first time here and on the visit, we went for the Midori set – a reasonably priced course with the offering of appetizers, 8 kinds of sushi, a special dish, kaisen chawan mushi, and dessert. The highlight is the sushi rice – prepared using traditional-aged red vinegar which lightly colors the rice and giving it a mellow taste. A touch of freshly-grated wasabi gives the food a spicy lift.
烤kamo(鸭),鸭肉包住cherry tomato,很香。。。 放进嘴里,不要直接咬,关着嘴巴5-10秒钟,你会嗅到那种烧烤味,咬下去那个tomato,跟拿鸭肉混在一起,可能小偏想烧烤想到疯了,感觉直接带我飞上青天~~
Previously a chef at Miraku, Chef Takahiro Kinoshita and his wife opens their own restaurant at Vantage. Here's the location. Please call to make reservation before you visit during the weekends.
To sum it up, this is a good authentic Japanese restaurant which I will definitely pay them another visit for their set lunch menu (They serve ala carte during dinner). I give this restaurant extra points because they serve 100% authentic Japanese instead of commercialised fusion food.
Blue Mountain Blend (MYR 14.50) Comes well balanced with mellow and floral aroma
Anyway, that still doesn’t change my fondness towards this specialty coffee oasis. They still have a pretty decent choices of single origin beans where you could opt for your preferred brewing method; V60, Siphon or Aeropress.
Over here at Full of Beans, they are really serious about coffee, as reflected in their wide selections of beans, be it house beans or seasonal. Blend type is also available for those not so fussy about their cup of joe and gladly enjoy their milk-based coffee.
Sifu Nyonya Cuisine is a spot to visit if you’re needing a taste of traditional Nyonya food.
工作人员和老板的态度都很好;环境虽然没有古香古色属于比较摩登装潢可是依然有着娘惹的韵味整体空间很感觉都很舒服
The star dish of the day was Sizzling Beef... tender, juicy and flavorful meat served on a sizzling hot pan... with Black Pepper sauce; not too Thai but definitely very delicious.
All in all, Chili Head Social Bar & Eatery definitely the Thai food dining experience in the heart of Tanjong Tokong.
