Nam Seng Coffee Shop @ Hutton Lane, Penang.

When talking about the wantan mee at Nam Seng Coffee shop, it reminds me with their sui kow and wantan. 

While writing this blog at this hour, I really hope that I can savour it right now. 

Restaurant that we reviewed:

Nam Seng Coffee Shop @ Hutton Lane, Penang.
Address: No. 124 Jalan Hutton Lane, Georgetown 10050, Penang, Malaysia.

Food that we savour:

Wantan Mee
The wantan noodle is perfectly cook. I just love the texture of the noodles. Springy textures.

Wantan

Sui Kow (Dumplings)

I kinda fell in love with the Sui Kow very much. The fillings of the Sui Kow is really tasty. There are 4 pieces of Sui Kow in a bowl. They have quite generous in their filling. You can taste the combination of prawn and meat in there. 

The Sui Kow is very big though. If not mistaken it cost RM6 for this.

Pan Mee
At this coffee shop, they also sell pan mee. But I still prefer the Sui Kow the most.

FoOd PaRaDiSe verdict:

Apart from the wantan mee, Sui Kow and pan mee stall. It is also very popular for chicken rice but they would be for lunch hour. As we dine in mostly for the breakfast therefore I will not elaborate more about the chicken rice in this post. 

Overall, I would recommend to try for the Sui Kow (dumpling) if you are Sui Kow lover.

Xen Teck Cafe @ Pengkalan Weld, Penang.

Occasionally, we will head to Pengkalan Weld to have our breakfast during the weekend. We normally like to go there pretty early as if you come late, normally its hard to get some seats. I always think that I had blogged about this place long time ago as I have been patronising this place for many years.

Anyway, I took this opportunity to introduce you a place for breakfast. They have a great varieties of choice to choose from:

Food that we savour:

Koay Teow Th'ng
We quite enjoy the Koay Teow Soup. Love the broth which really nice and tasty. Occasionally. I will order their been hoon soup as we love the springy vermicelli textures. If you love springy type of vermicelli, please give this a try!

Char Koay Teow

Fried Rice
Char Koay Teow and the fried rice are from the same stall. Love their food from this stall as they cook the food with the exact wok heat (wok hei in Cantonese) needed. Not everytime you get to savour their fried rice if too early. Fried rice from this stall is my princess favorite.

I brought a few visitors here before and they really enjoyed the char Koay Teow from this stall compares to the other.
* Note: I think this stall have changed proprietor since my last visit. The taste has vary.

 Curry Mee
The curry mee here is also not bad. Have the rich aroma of curry. Quiet generous amount of ingredients in it.

Wantan Mee
Sometime I will opt for wantan mee when I wish to have some dry version of noodles. The noodles have a right texture. Not too soft. 

 Hokkien Mee
The hokkien mee is also one of the popular dishes at this coffee shop. Have a nice soup base.

Bak Kut Teh

I like to enjoy a bowl of bak kut teh if we arrive pretty early in the morning. As sometime is very cool due to the seabreeze. With a cool weather and enjoy hot pipping bak kut teh is very enjoying for us. 

I love their bak kut teh soup base and my princess will usually go for the meat ball.

Ban Chang Kuih
Whenever we visit this coffee shop, hubby never failed to order the ban chang kuih. Sometime he will order the normal type, sometime with peanut butter or with bananas. They have lot of choices to choose from but normally I will prefer the normal type or with extra peanuts.Overall, this is one of the favorite morning breakfast places as they have many local delicacies to choose from under one roof.

Wantan Mee at Pahang Road, Penang.

Have you try the Pahang Road Wantan Mee? Well, it's only operates at night. It is quite easy to locate the shop. At night when you drive along the Pahang Road, you will never miss the shop. You will see many customers savouring their food. 

It is open from 6pm till 11:30pm from Monday till Saturday.

Sugar Cane Drink

Sui Kow
We all love their sui kow very much. The filling is very nice and tasty.  

Braised Chicken Feet

Wantan Mee

Their noodles are bit different from the others. Their watan mee came with the char siew and wantan. 

Hor Fun

They also serve hor fun. Actually, we do not aware that they have hor fun. While waiting for our wantan mee, I saw one table are having hor fun. So hubby goes and change one wantan mee to hor fun. If you like hor fun then you can give it a try!

Wantan Mee @ 71 Lembah Permai, Tanjung Bungah, Penang

Few days ago, hubby saw a post about this wantan mee in facebook and reckon that we shall give it a try. This shop was operating in a house and the uncle told us that his operating hour is from 7am till 11pm. And the plate of normal wantan mee is RM3 not longer RM2.50. However, the wantan itself is still RM0.10/piece.

It is located at No. 71, Lembah Permai, Tanjung Bungah, Penang. (Slightly opposite to Tenby International School)

Having a chat with uncle and he told us that if we would like to buy some wantan for Chinese New Year can come and buy from him. He will be selling 3 types of wantan - frozen wantan, deep fried wantan and fresh wantan. According to the uncle, price of wantan will be remain unchanged if order for Chinese New Year.

Wantan Mee (Big Served) - RM4

Hubby ordered for big serve. We were surprised to see that it is really big in size. The noodles are a bit different from others. You can see from the picture. 

Wantan Mee - RM3 (Normal Served)

Wantan Soup

Deep Fried Wantan

It cost just RM0.10/pc of wantan. Uncle told us must go with the sauce. And told us that the sauce is same with the wantan noodles.

FoOd PaRaDiSe verdict

I personally quite like the noodles as it is very springy. In term of the wantan, I still preferred the deep fried wantan over the soup wantan.

Wantan Mee @ Lebuh Melayu, Penang

I have been patronise this stall for few times now. I can only savour this stall during my off day. And the timing have to be right too. Furthermore, nowadays it is hard to get a car park as there is a Ghost Museum along Lebuh Melayu. But if is in the early morning, I have no problem when I patronize 113 Lebuh Melayu for Koay Teow Th'ng.

This stall operates from lunch time. Most of the time is fully packed. You have to see whether you have luck to get a seat. My last visit, we were sharing tables with other customer in a very hot day. Hahhahaa.... but no complaint......

Sometime you have to wait for a while as they have lot of customers.

Wantan Mee

Wantan Mee (thick version noodles)

Wantan Mee with sambal

Overall, we quite like the wantan mee served in this stall. My gal favousr the thick version of wantan mee as she loves the texture of the noodles.

Since today is the last day of 2015, FoOd PaRaDiSe would like to wish all my readers, "Happy New Year 2016 and all the best!".

Morning Wantan Mee @ intersection of Lebuh Melayu and Beach Street

I am not too sure whether you have awared of this shop before. Lately, we passed by this place very frequent. I just blogged about the night Koay Teow Th'ng in my last post, here. Which is also the same place that I am going to blog about this post but different owner.

Auntie preparing food at her food stall

Bascially, we have tried their Wantan Mee and the Koay Teow Bee Hoon Soup.

Wantan Mee

This stall wantan mee is relatively cheap. As nowadays you hardly get a cheap wantan mee like RM2.30 (Small) and RM3 (Big). I brought along my gal on our second visit to try the wantan mee. As we think that she might like it. When we told her that the wantan mee is only RM2.30, she was telling us that this wantan mee is very cheap and lots of ingredients compare to her school canteen selling for RM2 with limited ingredients on it.

Actually I am very particular with the wantan mee that have strong taste of strong alkaline water. But this stall, you don't have to worry much about the alkaline water. The noodles are not too soft either. Just fine texture. The chili paste is very nice. For me, it is in the acceptable range of spiciness. 

Wantan

Koay Teow Bee Hoon Soup

Since they are selling Koay Teow Th'ng and Bee Hoon Th'ng. So we ordered one to try on our first visit. When hubby went for ordering the owner suggest that we should try the combination of Koay Teow and Bee Hoon which she reckoned taste better that way.

Well...... the soup does not have a strong base compares to the night Koay Teow Th'ng stall. So if you like something milder version of the Koay Teow Th'ng perhaps you can give this a try.

Bak Kut Teh Cottage Delight 浓乡美食轩@ Cameron Highlands, Pahang

We have been a frequent visitors to Cameron highland lately. As I need to bring my visitors around. I have been stopping by this cafe for few times over the year for breakfast and lately stopped by for early lunch.

FOODS

American Breakfast

This is usually my girl choice of breakfast, Not sure why she always order this when she visited this cafe. 

 Ho Hee - RM5.00
We are not sure what is Ho Hee. So we just order one bowl to try. It is basically like koay tiaw thn'g and top with some fish ball, fish wantan and fuchok.

Wanton Mee - RM5.00

They have choice of wantan mee. Either with char siew or wantan. We tried the char siew version. It's a different type of wantan mee compares to the one in Penang style. But quite a good try though.

Hakka Mee - RM5.00

I like their hakka noodles. The noodles got springy textures and it came with a bowl of small yong tao foo. Their yong tao foo is also very nice. 

Curry Noodles - RM5.50

I like the yong tao foo that immerse in the curry. It tastes more flavourable for me. But the last visit the curry noodles sold out. If you like curry perhaps you can give this a try.

Assorted mixed fish balls, fuchok and meat balls

During one visit we ordered assorted yong tao foo to share among each others.

Restoran Soon Mooi @ Sungai Petani, Kedah

We used to dine in this coffee shop with my hubby family during the weekend when we went back for a visit. And usually it will be a full house. We need two tables to accomodate all the people. And sometime we will order our foods first while waiting for our seats.

Usually most of the family members will order either one of the following foods for their breakfast:

Wantan Mee
The noodles are nice as it has it springy textures. My gal enjoys the deep fried wantan. ^-^

Special Mantou
Usually we will order few plates of this for our add on breakfast. We loves it as the mantou is soft and warm and the inside fillings are deep fried with ingredients.

Koay Teow Thn'g
