Penang was named 2nd top tourist destination for 2017 by CNN recently and as a pure-bred Penangite, I couldn’t help but teared a little when I read the news.

Man, you’re talking about my hometown here yo!

If you own a credit or debit card, I’m fairly certain you’ve received reminders from your bank to update your cards to the new PIN & PAY cards.

Cheap, decent portion and tasty – Mat Rock ticks all the right boxes.

That and the fact that Mat Rock scoops in their unique and fiery sambal belacan in every pack, and a touch of this potent concoction just turn everything in the pack into a dynamite.

However, Mat Rock Nasi Ayam Kunyit isn’t quite the same without the sambal. So the sambal is a MUST.

It’s been a while since I’ve accepted an invite for a food event but hey, the Chef in topic is Chef Lino Sauro so how could I miss such an opportunity?

It would be great to see him in action again after 5 years.
Heck, let me try to get this same shot with him and post it in my later article about my luncheon alright? 🙂

The queue at this Taiwan Original Cake in Sunway Velocity was all over social media for the past few weeks.

That also meant an infinite stream of opinions on whether the queue is justified and if the cake is nice.

Golek, golek. I find it amusing really; to use the word golek. It brings to mind of naughty wriggles and swaying hips. :D But jokes aside, the meaning of golek…

Charlie Cafe – Sarawak Laksa, UFO tarts, Chicken Chop

Much has been written about Charlie’s Cafe in Taman Desa.

The social enterprise with its Pay-It-Forward program, the founders’ policy of eliminating middle men and buying their supplies from local farmers, the massive chicken chop, the mouthwatering Sarawak Laksa and the luscious Musang King cheesecake – there are many good reasons to visit Charlie Cafe!

I personally had Charlie Cafe on my to-visit list for ages but Taman Desa is just “not convenient”.
That basically translates to “I’m lazy to drive further than 10 km out of TTDI”.

Anyhow, what got me to drop in finally was these “UFO tarts“!
