Somewhere Classy For Christmas ???

Loads of budding cafes and restaurants has appeared over the past few months ...
 
I would like to bring you back in time ... reminiscing our good old Equatorial Hotel.
While the hype continues along the tourist belt of Tanjung Bungah, let us not forget The View.

It's semi buffet style where you can linger freely choosing your starters and appetisers.
Choice of soup, fresh oysters, salads and sashimi ...
Not forgetting its all time favourite smoked salmon.
Credit given that for a buffet style in Penang, there is always enough helping for everyone.
Choice of dressing and sauces to go with your meal
Sorbet served before your main course
Nicely done steak - nothing to complain about.
Do make sure you don't over do on the buffet spread, not leaving any space for the main course.
Not a very classy thing to do but I suggest you go easy on the buffet spread ... have the main course and if you feel like another round of the spread ... why not ?
Dessert people ... leave some space for the sweets ...
Your are game for a romantic Christmas dinner ... live music as you dine :-)

Merry Christmas Foodie Fans
&
A Happy 2015 New Year !!!

Looking for a nice plate of Mee Goreng ???


Try Tanjung Bungah.
For some reason the computer is not compatible.
This one is just opposite the all famous Sar Hor Fun in the morning.
Only starts at tea time and finishes just before dinner.
He now has two maids helping him ...

Gangnam BBQ @ Tanjong Tokong

Gangnam Style Korean BBQ Restaurant
28-1-2, Jalan Tanjung TokongPenang
04-8997900
N5 26.890 E100 18.300
Foodie was invited by a friend to try out a Groupon Deal at this place.
So on a Sunday night, we came by for dinner ...
Good thing about this place is you can BYO.
By the way, Doarae is also BYO :-)
So according to the Groupon deal, we called in for booking and was told we could only start at 8pm.
Last order was 9pm so it was a real rush.

Food was ok.
Service was BAD.
Slow motion workers, dragging their feet, so with only 1 hour to eat as much as we can, it was a real rush
We had the usual free flow of side dishes.

 All I could say is, it was a rather 'rushed' experience.
Never liked eating in a rush, so anytime Doarae beats this place hands down.
However, considering the price, this may be one of the strategies.
I am not sure, will need to ask other Foodies' experiences here.
There is a nice blog written on this place, see link below:

So sorry not many photos of the hot plate as we were rushing, rushing, rushing ...
Ox tongue part of the buffet menu but it was cut very thinly as compared to the one in Doarae.
Pretty unfair to compare with Doarai in view of the price range.
So, if you want a cheaper version of Korean food in a hurried manner, here you are.
