Round up our dinner with La Piña as our dessert. Extremely crispy version of pineapple pancake, topped with candied pecan, fresh strawberries and mint leaves. Finished with Vanilla ice cream. A delightful dessert commingled of sweet, salt and sour sensation.
西班牙最具有特色的美食属 Paella 大锅饭,当然在餐厅里不可能会把整个大锅捧上桌吧,所以这里的分量是一般碟子的分量。特点在于厨师使用了进口的 Bomba 米,这类型的米身形较肥,米粒吸取了食材的精华,所以每一颗都好饱满噢!这一道 El Faro Mix Paella 海鲜大杂烩,带点焦香味,这焦香味乃是从炒过的海鲜而来,淋上了少许的柠檬汁,感觉更加的清新,非常好吃。
Tomato Cappuccino is tomato soup served in a coffee cup and looks just like a latte with an artful swirl adorning the foam. Baby octopus, pesto, corn chips and cheese foam, take the liquid way above the standard red tradition. We scoop through the layers and take our first spoonful. Wow! This soup is incredible. It’s intensely rich, so even though we’re both diving in for more, it is possible to share. It’s a must order for sure.
Probably made from a Sandwich Toaster, the Caramelicious Waffles was two small pieces of crispy Waffles drizzled over Caramel and served with Peanut Butter, Chocolates, Banana and whipped Cream. The texture was a little bready but we love the addictive crispy texture, the slightly burnt edges gave it a pleasant aroma as well. The Waffles may seemed overly drowned in sauce but to our surprise, they were not as sweet as expected... even better with some whipped Cream. The only source of overdose sweetness was the Chocolate chips.
Patois Kafe & Bistro has got to be the most curious restaurant in Penang ever, the place is usually closed and only opens during certain hours. We have made multiple attempts to visit the place but to no avail. Dining in Patois is quite an experience, the menu is small but the service is amiable. We were warmly greeted by a charming-motherly lady; she was concerned if we knew what to order (since it was our first visit), if we were comfortably seated and if the air-conditioner was blowing at the right temperature. We were certainly well-taken care of. The place is unpretentious sans the unnecessary frills, it feels exactly dining at home. Service and ambiance aside, the European-Fusion menu is standard-average with some hits and misses. Patois Kafe & Bistro is located at Service Road, off Burmah Road (right next to Chow Thye Road).
