Merry Christmas!!!

This year X'mas we did not plan to have any special or anything to celebrate. Maybe we are too tired... I'm tired on my work and pregnancy... hehe. Thus, we just went to the nearest restaurant which close to our working place to have a dinner.

This is just a simple and cozy restaurant. Family business I believe. We did not make any reservation because think that people will go to somewhere high class restaurant. Well, when I open the door... it almost full house. Luckily, the peoples from another table are going to leave.

The foods are taste good with reasonable price :)

Even thought we did not purposely go and celebrate this year Christmas but I won't forget to get him a Christmas present :)

Ceramic mug from Parkson. Initial plan is buying a watch storage box for him but it not yet delivered. Thus, just on the spot buy him a mug when we were shopping in 1st Avenue Mall :)

That Little Wine Bar Restaurant

Restaurant: That Little Wine Bar

Location: 54 Jalan Chow Thye, 10050 George Town, Penang

Date: 13 Dec 2012, Thursday

Our 3rd anniversary!!!

With our 1st BB... who still sleeping inside mummy's tummy :)

Ordered from my ex-colleague, Oritta Cakehouse. It is just a fruit sponge cake. Taste is light... suit me :)

This is the restaurant 'look'... I found it from food blogger website. Comment is not bad from them. That's why I decided go and try.

Waiting for our foods...

Wild mushroom soup RM28... saw it from food blogger. The taste... hmm.. not our cup of tea.

Mushroom quiche RM28... also saw few bloggers ordered this. The taste... hmm... ok-la~ small portion.

My order... homemade sausages RM32... again..small portion... but enough fill in to my stomach... Taste... so so.

His order... Rack of lamb RM48... menu of the day... looks good. But after eat some... he feel jelak already...

2013 New Year Menu...

If you ask me... will I come and visit this restaurant again? My answer is... NO!

  The taste of food is under our expectation... and some more the price is high if base on such quality and quantity of food. Don't fully trust what the food blogger comment :p

Sakana Sushi Bar & Cruisine

Location: 252, Jalan Penang Georgetown, 10000 Georgetown, Penang

This restaurant located near by the Polis Station at town, starting point of Campbell street, famous Cendol or same row of Eden restaurant... corner unit. You can see it at the Penang road (main road).

 

Surprisingly... Not much choices...

Sushi plate price from RM2 - RM6

Not much sushi selection...  maybe is weekday. Their 'hand roll' skill is not good as I can see. The taste is normal.

Spicy pepper squid... not bad... some sort like Taiwan famous salty chicken popcorn... portion is not big actually...

Chicken Ramen... the taste is very light. Note that the soup is not in teriyaki taste. The udon is a bit too soft and not so firm for me. I need to add in some chili power to light up my appetite. Rating: 2.5/5

Beef teriyaki set... the rice portion is not big... just good enough. The set meal is come with 1 scoop of ice-cream. Rating: 3/5

Overall, the food taste is not meet my expectation. Sakae Sushi franchise is better than this. The staff there mostly is young people.

GokuRaku Ramen@GurneyParagon

This Japanese restaurant has been operated for a while already. Today I just have a chance to try it out.

Not much choices from the menu. Their signature food is ramen I guess. 1st, choose soup type...2nd, choose your size (small, medium, large)... 3rd, choose your topping...

Standard seasoning...

Tonkotsu Ramen... I have choose original soup type + small size for myself...

The soup is 'thick'... and the ramen is not too soft... suit for me... Rating: 4/5

Tokyo Ramen... original soup + medium size for Alfonso...

The soup is 'clear' if compare to Tonkotsu original soup... His comment is "the taste is normal"... But I feel OK. Rating: 3/5

Gyoza... wanted to order another type of Gyoza which recommended by one of the food blogger. But that was not available. The waiter told me this one is similar to that Gyoza.

You only can see the entire Gyoza when you flip it. I feel that this is 'boiling' Gyoza, after that grill the bottom side of the Gyoza. The taste is BAD honestly. The Gyoza which selling in the CF food court (RM1 per pc) is much more better than this. Rating: 0/5

The drink only come after the ramen was served... and I need to remind the waiter... too bad.

Our bill... Overall the Ramen is not bad.. just not much variety...

Now they are having a lucky draw (I'm not sure it will last until when). If you got "congratulation" means you can have a free meal of your current dining. Plus, they also have a stamp collection system for every RM25.
