Table Setting

Foods that we ordered and tried : 

White Rice

Thai Mango Salad

We order this as an appetiser for them to try. It has a fine combination of sweet, sour and hint of spiciness. Quiet a nice appetiser.

Chili Crab
Uncle Hoe loves chili crabs very much so this is officially one of the top dishes for the celebration. The sauce used to cook this chili crab is nicely done. Not too spicy which really suits the taste buds of the guests.

Deep Fried Bun
Everyone enjoying these buns to go with the chili crab. 

Steam Fish

This is  the first time I savour this fish (France Flounder). The taste of the fish meat is quite firm and nice.

Stir Fry Vegetables

Poached Prawn

Everyone give a thumb up for this dish. As a prawn lover like me, I usually like to eat the prawn the simple way and yet very delicious and tasty. The timing of cooking the prawn and the freshness of the prawn are the key factor in this dish.

Kang kong Sambal Belachan

Stir fry clams with spring onion

Grilled Butter Garlic Tiger Prawn

We were introduced to try this grilled butter garlic tiger prawns. Which turned out to be quite a nice selection of choice. But I think half of the tiger prawn for some of us is too full.

Mango Tango Cake from Brix and BAUME
We stopped by Brix and BAUME when we were on the way to the restaurant for the birthday cake. We choose Mango Tango for the birthday celebration as many of the guests love mangoes. Which was also a surprise birthday cake for Uncle Hoe and thank you for the auntie below who helped us for the birthday song dedication and celebration. The services rendered to us by her was excellent.

Uncle Hoe with happy and cheering auntie.

FoOd PaRaDiSe verdict:

 It was quiet a nice place for catching up. Live entertainment and also have a nice sunset view too! 

Sea breeze at night. Food were delicious. The only draw back is one or two of the waiter and waitress not really understand English. Perhaps they are just part-timer. But overall good service.

It has been years that I did not visit this restaurant. This is used to be one of the favourite restaurants in Tambun by many people.  Since we got visitors came for visit and would like to across the second bridge. That's why we ended up here to savour some seafood feast. Following were some of the foods that we ordered:

 Prawn - RM 28

The prawn was perfectly done. Not overcooked just nice.

This vegetables were kinda special. Something different. It is a combination of different vegetables, nuts and mushroom.

The chili crab was quite refreshing. Combination of sweetness and spiciness together. Mantou was nice to go with the sauces. The crab was quite nice. 

Chai Seafood @ Batu Maung, Penang

Since after my first visit to this shop, it has been marked down in our mind that this is the place that we will be coming back often. Since it is in Bayan Lepas area so it makes us easier when we want to have some chu char. Furthermore, the service is quite fast and also it has air condition. As nowadays the kid will always complained that it is too hot. So if you facing this kind of problem, perhaps you can drop by this place for lunch or dinner.

Following are some of the dishes that we tried after several visit

From above 1st row: Hatyai Bean curd ~ RM8 and Stir fry "Yau Mak" with garlic ~ RM7

If you like the "kerabu style" of bean curd, then I would like to recommend you to try their Hatyai bean curd. As it has the best combination of sweetness, spiciness and sourness. Not to mentioned that the bean curd is very crunchy after they deep fried it.

From 2nd row: Steam Kappa with Lemon ~ RM12

During one occasion, hubby visited this shop for lunch and he happened to try the kappa there. And he insisted to bring my gal and I to try it out. As he described that the kappa is bigger in size compares to the normal one that we had.

So we head there and try the steam kappa with lemon as introduce by the lady boss there. Well, the kappa is indeed very big and juicy and not to mention that the sweetness came from the freshness of the kappa. My gal and I enjoyed it very much.

***** Please note that the big size kappa is not available all the time. *****

Last row: Steam Promfret ~ RM18 and Seaweed Soup

My gal loves seaweed soup, so we decided to give it a try. And it turn out to be not bad. As for the promfret, it is quite normal.

First row: Stir fry green beans with dried shrimp ~ RM10

Another dish that I highly recommend you to try is the stir fry green beans with dried shrimp. Providing that you love green beans and dried shrimp. The dried shrimp is deep fried and then stir fry with the green beans. That's make both the green beans and dried shrimp very crunchy.

***** Please note that this dish is very dried. If you prefer some sauces, then you should omit this dish *****

Second row: Marmite Chicken ~ RM14

Their marmite chicken is a bit different to others as it is cooked with some chili padi. So be very careful when you dig in. The chicken is very tender and tastes nice.

Last row: Steam grouper with teochew style ~ RM40 and Hot plate sizzling bean curd ~ RM12

The steam fish with teochew style makes you have more appetite as it is a bit sourish and the fish is fresh. As for the sizzling bean curd, it is quite simple dish.
First row: Steam fish with special bean paste sauce

Please be warned that this dish is a bit spicy for people that who cannot take spicy foods like my gal. She complained that it is too spicy for her. But hubby and I quite like the taste as it is something different.

Second row: Onion Omelette and stir fry asparagus

Both are quite a simple dish.

Last row: Stir fry bitter gourd with spare ribs and black bean paste, Stir fry lady fingers with garlic

Both hubby and I enjoyed the stir fry bitter gourd with spare ribs. Out of surprise with the combination, the bitter gourd does not taste bitter for us. And it is not salty as well. The spare ribs are quite tender. As for the stir fry lady fingers with garlic, it became a favourite dish for my gal right now. hahhahaha.......

First row: Flower shell ~ RM8

During one of the visit, hubby saw that they have flower shell, so he ordered some to try. As occasionally, my gal loves easting this kind of shell. But off course we will limit her to some extend. The flower shell is nice when it dip with the chili sauce.

Second row: Stir fry vegetables ~ RM7 and Assam Prawn ~ RM16

Their assam prawn is quite special as normally we will get the dark color assam prawn that cooked with soy sauce. But this is different, you can see from the photo above. As a prawn lover, off course i enjoyed the plate of assam prawn very much. hahahhahaa......

Last row: Curry Fish ~ RM18

Occasionally, my gal will ask us to order some curry fish. As she loves to coated her rice with some curry. The curry fish is quite nice and the fish itself is so fresh. But be warned that it is quite a big serving. It seems like never ending of fish inside the clay pot. hahhahahhaa.......

First row: Stir fry mix vegetables with broccoli and stir fry kappa with chili padi

After trying the steam kappa, we decided to dry other cooking style of kappa. Which is cook with soy sauce and chili padi. Which is not bad. But this time round, the kappa is the normal type.
Second row: Mantis Prawn

Since this visit is with my mum and sister. Hubby order mantis prawn for them to try. The mantis prawn is very fresh as once you order the mantis prawn, they will scope it straight from their aquarium. Their mantis prawn is nice.
Last row: Chili crab and man tou

Whenever we have more people dine in, hubby will order crab especially with my sister presence. This is the first time we try the chili crab. And it turn out to be quite nice. My gal was in love with the mantou. I think she ate lots of the mantou. hahhahaha.....

First row: Stir fry kappa with spring onion ~ RM12

Another try of their kappa with spring onion. Since my gal wants something not spicy. So that she can have some of it. As the previous stir fry kappa with chili padi is a bit spicy for her. hahhaha.....
Second row: Curry Fish ~ RM24

Since this trip is with my friend, we order some curry fish for her to try. However, we found that it is a bit different from what we ordered before. But we still enjoyed the dish.

Last Row: Hatyai Chicken ~ RM14

Hubby want to us to try the Hatyao Chicken in one of our visits but we were told that it is quite a big served for 3 of us. So since this time round we have more people. So we get to try it. I believed that it is quite similar with the hatyai bean curd that we had before. But please be warn that it is quite a big plate of chicken. We have the difficulty to finish them too. hahhahaaa....

Well, that's what we ordered after several visits.
