Canton-i @ Queensbay Mall, Penang

Today I am going to blog about Canton - i, I believe that most of you in Penang and KL should known this place. As most floggers have blogged about this place. I am going to combine my two visit in this blog. The first visit is with my friend and gal and the second visit is with my gal only. ^o^

I will begin with my first visit during February 2009. At first we intend to go to another outlet but we keep chatting with each other and forgot where we want to go and I just realise that we are nearby Canton-i, then my friend asked me whether I dine in there before and I told her "No". Then my friend told me to have a look, if we need to wait, we better change to another place as my gal is complaining she is so hungry. ^o^

And so surprise and cum lucky I guessed...... we no need to wait. We were straight lead by the waitress to our place. And after browsing through the menu, we ordered:

Soya Bean (RM3.50 and Ice Yin Yong (RM5.50)

Siew Mai ~ RM9.00

My friend asked my gal whether she would like to have some siew mai as most kids love it. And my gal say "YES", so we proceed with our order. And my gal enjoyed eating this and she finished 3 of them. This is another reason why she demand to go back the second time. Just because of this siew mai. ^o^

Egg Tart

I knew my friend take egg tart. So I suggested to her that we try the egg tart as it is their signature dish. The egg tart tastes not bad and I think it will taste nicer when the tart just came out from the oven. ^o^ 

Char Leong (RM7.80)

Wow..... when my friend saw this, she straight away ordered this as we hardly see "Char Leong" in Penang. This is one of the dish that we will order when we had our "Yum Cha" session in the good old days. ^o^ And I quickly share this news to my hubby. As I think it's been more than 15 years that he never tastes "Char Leong". ^o^

Char Leong Sauce

Normally we will put the sauce above the "char leong" before we start digging in.

Cuttle Fish and Jelly Fish (RM9.80)

This is also one of my friend favourites and also one of the dishes we used to order. Guess what? My gal enjoy having the cuttle fish......^o^

Lean meat with Century Egg Porridge (RM10.80)

My friend opts for lean meat with century egg porridge. And she comments that it tastes not bad.

Char Siew Rice ~ Rm11.80

My gal chose Char Siew Rice and she comments that it taste ok.

*******************************

During the March school holiday, my gal and I went to Queensbay Mall for a late lunch. And I asked what she want to eat? And the answer is Canton-i. ^o^ She is after the "Siew Mai".

Hot Yin Yong

At first I did not realised the design of the cup. As the cup is facing another direction. It's my gal told me...... "Mum.... look at the cup..... so cute!" ^o^ Then I took the photo of this hot yin yong.

Fried rice with chicken and salted fish (RM14)

After browsing through the menu, I asked my gal whether she would love to try fried rice with chicken and salted fish as our Sabah Trip, she likes this type of fried rice very much which she tried @ Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe.

The fried rice is indeed very nice. With the "Wok Hei". It is an excellent choice that we had make. ^o^

Five Treasure Rice (RM15)

This rice consists of 5 treasures. They are Roast Pork, loh bean curd, loh egg, cuttle fish and loh chicken.

My gal chose this as she can have the cuttlefish again and also tried other things.

Roast Pork

The roast pork tastes nice and crunchy. My gal enjoys having it.

Chili Sauce

Orange Egg Custard

From the last visit we were so full and we did not ordered any deserts. So this visit, I decided to order one and try. And I chose Fresh Orange Egg Custard. I told the waiter not to serve me right away as I would like to have it after my lunch. So after I almost finished my meal, I asked the waiter for my orange egg custard as they need time to prepare it and it is nice to have it while it is hot.

The verdict is my gal does not like it. As she doesn't really enjoy egg custard. So I have it all by myself. It has a strong orange aroma as the egg custard is steam inside the orange. If you like egg custard, you might want to check this out. ^o^

Map Location

We asked the auntie who took our orders to suggest us their popular dishes. And she asked us whether we would like to try their

Siam Pig Trotter

Then hubby is like err....... and look at me.......^o^ Since we were told it's their specialty..... both of us decided to order it and try. Well....you can see from the photos..... it is very crunchy in the outside and very tender in the inside of the pig trotter. We quite enjoy it.

Stir Fry Vegetables ~ RM5

Kerabu Chicken ~ RM6

The kerabu chicken is not bad.....the chicken is very tender and the kerabu is very appetising.

Actually hubby wants to order more but we were told by the auntie to order extra only if we feel we had not enough after all the dishes served. ^o^

ABC potatoes soup

We did not ordered this. And we were so puzzle and about to ask. And the auntie who took our orders came to us and asked us how the Pig Trotter tastes? We told her that it is very nice. Then she told me that the soup is free for us. ^o^ And the soup tastes very nice.

Luckily..... the auntie stop us from ordering extra..... as we were too full after all the dishes being serves. And the total bill is only RM28.80(including 3 rice). Cheap????

*****Please went there early to avoid longer waiting time. Especially weekend.*****

Hawker Food @ Bayan Baru Market, Penang (Part 1)

Today, I am going to blog about Bayan Baru Market hawker foods. This is only one section of the market. There are more to come in the future. ^o^

Hubby decided to go for western food too and he ordered Hawaiian Chicken Ham. And hubby comments that the Hawaiian Chicken Ham is not bad.

We usually will order the claypot chicken rice from this stall if we want to have claypot chicken rice. And you have the choice to add egg or without egg. I found that their claypot chicken rice tastes not bad.
