Authentic Thai @ Tan Jetty

 You just gotta come to this place.
It is authentic Thai, the Penang way.
Why ?
Cause the venue is so uniquely Penang.
I can't even find words to describe it.
Whether you are a tourist or a local, if you have not been here, please go and try it.
The food is good.
The atmosphere and ambience is great.
If your timing is not good, you need to bring 'patience' along cause it may be a long wait.
That said, it's not all bad cause you can soak in the richness and originality of Penang.
Maybe the best time is just before sunset, sometimes you may bump into couples taking their wedding photos during this time, also if you are the early bird, the wait is not that long.
 So, what's good here ?
They serve laksa for lunch.
It's rather authentic Thai cause the chefs are Thai.
Most things here are nice and reasonably priced.

 These deep fried mushrooms and chili sauce goes superbly well with beer.

 Fish of the day is fresh and it comes with a little bit of extra gravy.
Everything is spicy :-)



 Seating on stilts.
How can you beat that ?
Watching the sun set in front of your eyes.
Good company
Good food
Good drinks
Good ambience
Penang indeed has it all ...
 And this is the thing I always say about Penang.
Penang is so 'real', all this heritage is not a show.
It is real life, everyday life intertwined with heritage.
In the midst of your meal, you have this playful little boy, not wearing any shorts, running around and having a good time fooling with his brother.

Keat Clay Pot Bah Kut Teh - Cheap & Good

 Superb !
Another venue hits the Cheap & Good List :-)
I used to be a regular here but for some reason I forgot about it until recently, I re-discover it as I was passing along Air Itam and was feeling hungry and had an urge for Bah Kut Teh.

 Prior to this, the only Bah Kut Teh place I would go with no disappointment is this one
 But now ... the winds have changed ...
Why ?
Because this place is Good and it is also CHEAP :-p 
like much much much cheaper than the link above
 The style is different but this one you can eat to your heart's content with no worry that it will blow a hole in your pocket.
Also this one is from dinner onwards till late ...


 Highly recommended is the 'pin head' mushroom in a different pot.
Loads of spare parts.
Foodie's Choice
Claypot Bah Kut Teh - Spare ribs, Tongue, Pork Balls
Separately order - add mushrooms and 'fu chok'
 Guess what ...
You can add as much soup as you like and no one will scold you or give you a long face ... how cool is that ?
