Last Saturday, I went Dave's Deli with Cai Ling. This is my second time here. They serve nice western food. The price of the food is around RM14.90 - RM20++. I love their mashed potato and Mango Lassi the most here! The Mango Lassi (RM6.90) tasted just nice. You can feel the fruit in the lassi and it is not too sour and you will feel bit creamy. I like it very much.

The mashed potato here is also famous! RM3 only. Of course reasonable price! Even KFC also more expensive than this. Their mashed potato is very special as you can taste the cheese in the potato. I like it too.

The Tomato Basil and Garlic Spaghetti is RM14.90. It tasted very nice too. It is very big portion and you will surely feel full after eating.

My friend ordered the Fish n Chips. The french fries are fatty fries which we like it. The fillet are not too oily and is very big piece. It is suitable for family dining and fine dining. Something that is a pity is that we need to self service ourselves. You need to order food at the counter, pay and bring your own food to your own table. The waiter will serve the food to you only when the food were not ready when you paid for your meal.

This is the Penang's Famous Tang Yen! I always like to go to this stall for supper after mid night movie! They are not always open and I always need to try my luck to get the Tang Yen. *I think Saturday night usually don't have.

This bowl of Tang Yen costs RM3. It comes with two with fillings and few smalls one without fillings. What makes this stall so famous is they do the Tang Yen and sell it upon your order. It tastes really fresh and very chewy. You can hardly find this at other place. They have very limited seats for dine-in. And this stall is right opposite the Penang's Trader's Hotel. If you are there, sometimes u need to wait beside the road for seats. Many people come here all the way to take away too. The location of by the road side makes u feel like as if the old stalls in the old days.

Many people say this shop has the best pan mee in Penang! And I am totally agree with it! They sell Pan Mee and Dim Sum here. The location is quite hard to be noticed from the main road of Bukit Gambier. It is situated downstairs of a block of flats. Many many office workers in Bayan Lepas area always eat at here. The food price range from RM3.00 to RM5.00 each. Apart from Dim Sum and Pan Mee, there is also an uncle selling muachi and a stall of Fruit Rojak. The environment is not very clean as some tables are placed under the trees on the grass. It is a very local style food shop.

They only serve one type of drink, the herbal tea. There are dry and wet pan mee. I like the dry pan mee. The Pan Mee is cooked and mix with dark soya sauce, minced pork and some ikan bilis. It is not salty but tasted just nice. The mee is handmade one and is tangy. The mee is quite small portion for a big eater like me. A small bowl of soup is served with two fishballs. The shop is not open on Sunday. The environment is suitable for normal dining but not fine dining for sure.

Spices Restaurant is located inside the Concorde Hotel. Situated right infront of the swimming pool of the hotel. The location is quiet and tranquil. The staffs were friendly. They served our needs very well. We went on a Saturday night and there was a pianist playing songs. The environment was romantic. You can also see the Petronas Twin Towers right above if you sit outside of the restaurants. Very good view.First, the waitress served us the buns politely. Really fresh buns! Comes with garlic cheese and olive oil. The staff refilled the basket once we finished the buns. They are very considerate!

Next, I shall introduce the appetizer. Appetizer served were 1. Salmon Tartar with Crispy Tatami and 2. Smoke Duck Breast, Grilled Vegetables, Feta Cheese and Raspberry Vinaigrette. [Photos referred to my blog link at the end of the post]

We don't like both dishes. The salmon tartar were too raw! Maybe we are used to cooked food and we don't like it. It tasted extremely weird. The smoke duck breast tasted okay at first but the more I eat, the more I feel not nice. I don't recommend both of this.

After the appetizer, we were served with soup. There were 2 soups served, which are Cream of Wild Mushroom Soup and French Onion Soup with Cheese Crouton. The mushroom soup as picture below tasted very nice. The ingredients were fresh and the taste of the soup is not very spicy and many many types of mushrooms inside. The French Onion Soup was not that good. Whole bowl of onions~ The soup was too little. And the taste was not really good. The main course! We ordered 4 different one. Spaghetti Alio Olio with seafood. The seafood served were really fresh. Very big and fleshy prawns. Fresh and big scallops too! Other ingredients such as squids and mussels. This portion is very big, I cannot really finished it. My sis's main course was Roasted Spring Chicken, Foie Gras, Garlic Cream and Ponzu Soy Sauce. This was quite nice. The setting of the food was very nice also. My sis likes it very much~ The square shaped thingy is the potato which were sliced and baked with cheese layer by layer. It looks like mille crepe cake. My dad ate this Steam Halibut, Black Olive, Trio of Mushroom in Lemon Grass Nage. The western style of cooking steam fish is without ginger unlike the Chinese people. So, the fish tasted a bit weird, maybe because no ginger was used. My dad says, this costs RM100 per kg in the market! The Halibut was fresh. There is still one more main course, which is Duck Confit with Braised Gobo, Porcini and Orange - Umeshu Glaze. It tasted so-so only. [Photos refer to my blog link at the end of the post]

Lastly, our desserts were served. We chose the Balsamic Strawberries with Gelato and Ginger Creme Brulee with seasonal Fresh Berry.

Balsamic Strawberries are me and my sis's favorite. The ice-cream served was very smooth and nice. Absolutely not ordinary Nestle's ice-cream. The Ginger Creme Brulee with seasonal Fresh Berry tasted like egg tart~ Haha, But it was nice too. the top part tasted crispy. The whole meal costs about RM280+ for 4 persons.

We also ordered 2 mocktails. Sky Love and Al Fresco. Al Fresco tasted like vitagen as it contains yogurt. I like this.

Overall comment, the food were nice and the service was excellent! And of course it is a bit pricey. But it is worthwhile for the price at such environment.

My boyfriend brought me here once and I fell in love with this food! It is just a normal porridge with steamed chicken. But it tastes really good! I like it a lot!

I always ordered a big bowl of porridge (costs RM4). And you can order the chicken. You just need to tell the person how many person's share u want. One person is RM3. This is the portion for 2 persons! The chicken is yummy (fresh, smooth and nice texture). They are only open for dinner. Don't be there too early. Be there around 7pm will be just nice!
