Baked French Onion

After been trying the famous signature mushroom soup all this while, we decided to go for something new, which is the Baked French Onion. But please don’t be misled by its name as some kind of onion rings like those from Tony Roma’s, as this is purely a soup-themed fare. It is equally gratifying with its thickness and the consistency of the onion soup, that has been spiced up with some croutons as well. Having said that, of course you may still ask for some cheese powder if you are a real cheese aficionado, just like me

Spanish Omelette

What’s so special about omelette, some of you might think. Well, it is no longer a boring and mundane dish nowadays as it has been given some facelift, so called, with the many cultural influences nowadays. Especially when you are in Penang, you have nothing less to expect, especially the sumptious spread of nice food available here. There you go, the Spanish Omelette by Mizi Bistro, located in the vicinity of Straits Quay. This plate of eggy recipe is served Served upside-faced with sliced caramelised onion, tossed with mushroom, potatoes and capsicum in a tomato pulp. It definitely requires some certain level of skill in preparing such a playful recipe. The tanginess of the mushroom is very enjoyable, alongside my favourite potatoes, which are bit mushy delightfully.

Sui Kau

Apart from their famous ‘wan tan mee’, their ‘sui kau’, or so called dumpling, is quite tasty too. Wrapping within is the meaty filling of minced meat, that is not too fatty and have been nicely marinated from some hours.Tagging along with the meat are some bites of scallions and water chestnut as well to enhance the overall taste. Crunchy and chewy, seems to go well with the smooth skin of the dumpling.

Curry Mee

Another renowned fare at this street is the curry mee. This bowl of noodles is quite tasty I would say, although the price might be slightly above the average, but still affordable It is bit different from the usual curry mee I have, where this one is having a more dilute gravy but still taste good with the curry aroma. It comes with more coconut milk and side dishes like dried octopus, fried bean curb , bean sprouts, special chilli sauce and also big fish ball. The fishball is quite bouncy thus making it quite delectable. I also enjoy the ‘tau fu pok’ for it is really good in absorbing the nice curry gravy and you get to enjoy the oozing out soup

This is by far, only could be found in Penang. This fruit is actually of acquired taste for not everyone would love the pungent aroma. But it is known for its good nutritional value Usually comes in pickled snacks, you would be surprised here with a drink version instead This way it is milder so by right it is acceptable by all folks. You get to taste some sweetness in the juice amidst the unique aroma of nutmeg. You can also ask them to add in some 'asam' to balance out the overall flavour. I think they uses the candied slices of nutmeg instead of the fresh fruit, else the fragrance would be much more intense
