Along with a nice cosy ambiance to go with it. If you have not tried their desserts before, you should :)
Creamy tong-sui is showcased in the bubur cha cha, green bean sago, and the black glutinous rice, with the former cooked in coconut milk and the latter complemented by a topping of thick coconut milk.
Here's the location.
Overall, this stall may have its loyal fans but we wonβt be one of them. Thankfully, we only queued 45 minutes for this. If you fancy rojak on the (very) sweet side β this stall might be worth a visit, but we advise coming at night for a shorter queuing time. As for us, this will be our last visit.
Technically this stall does not have an actual name and its just called Tan Jetty Prawn Fritters as it has a sign that says "Prawn Fritters" and its in Tan Jetty.
Handmade without an artificial bun 'bao' is a rare item in the market, moreover is only selling for RM1 per piece, this is made this stall unique. Ting's Cottage is located at Jalan Baru, Balik Pulau. Here, the owner insists on natural handmade without artificial, and yet the price is so afforda ble with RM1 for each plain bun while RM1.50 for stuffing. However, Ting's Cottage only operates once a week which is Sunday 7 am and the bun is fast selling.
The first thing that i would like to introduce is their Lava Bun or commonly known as Lave Pao here in Penang.
Apom Telur Island Glades has been around at Hawker Corner of Island Glades for ages and now is passing down to the 3rd Generation. Serving the traditional type of apom it is very classic and mixing the bite texture of outer crunchy while inner fluffy, this stall is one of the recommended apom in town.
However as the popular drink here is Royal Cheese, we gave a try to paint our upper lip with the "moustache". Follow their instructions to enjoy the tea, i.e. must not use a straw and drink with the cup slanted 45 degree to your lips. Taste wise, the drink is creamy due to the presence of cheese and not sweet. We felt it has overturned somehow overturned the concept of milk tea as public tend to perceive milk tea as sweet. Royaltea can be considered as a decent alternative to hang out with friends for a cup of tea in fact. Nevertheless, the price did not come cheap, as a cup of Royal Cheese Green Tea cost us RM 13.90.
The place is small here at Royaltea with limited seating place.
Over here, a classic piece of Apom Balik with peanut solely cost RM 1 only. While taste is a very objective flavour, we enjoyed the generous quantity of banana slices in our Apom Balik Pisang, though we'd hoped for an additional dash of peanuts.
For those who like apom balik in Penang, taking a drive to Burma Road is a must. Along the bustling road are two apom balik street peddlers, Apom Chooi and Apom Guan. Both stalls are known for their sweet apom balik topped with ripe Pisang Raja banana and small spoonful of cream corn!
Both Tao Hua desserts we had were amazing, we love how silky smooth the texture was. The Tao Hua itself was delicately sweetened but together with the Bee Koh Moi and Gandum, the combination was more flavorful... nuttier texture but more satisfying bite
I love this Churro but the down side is, it is too oily
The first churreria in Penang- Mr. Churro has started their business operations over the weekend, the popular Korean Churros brand is famed for their Spanish crispy fried dough. Recommended for those with a sweet tooth, Mr Churro's creations are all dusted with Cinnamon Sugar and further paired with sweet goodies (such as Soft Serve or Chocolate drizzles). All Churros are freshly made on the spot. Business was brisk over the weekend but the wait was not long. Mr. Churro's kiosk can be found at Lower Ground floor of Gurney Plaza.
A new business venture under the "Fullhouse" brand, though we are still unsure how the brand got associated with serving the Hong Kong Egg Waffles. It occupies a strategic lot at Lower Ground Floor, Queensbay Mall (previously Chatime); it has a lot of Fullhouse-related merchandise on sale with a couple of seats available facing the "open kitchen". The setup is meant for takeaways so dining-in is not recommended. The place is dishing out 6 flavors- Original, Chocolate, Lemon, Corn, Cheesy-Berry and Choco-Bamon... with starting price from Rm 5 nett.
For a plate of straight-forward, simple but delicious Chinese Noodles (somewhat similar to Mee Pok), make your way to Lebuh Tye Sin. Housed in one of the heritage houses along the 4th Street (Lebuh Tye Sin), the unpretentious stall manned by a Chinese lady opens as early as 7 am. Expect no sophisticated setting but a few simple tables and chairs placed outside of their residence. The stall has limited offering but good enough to satisfy even those with stubborn palate.
