This plate of Grilled Chicken Fried Rice look simple and you can tell what is put into this plate of Grilled Chicken Fried Rice just by a glance through, it is basically Fried Rice + Grilled Chicken, to me, it tasted average. The other plate is the Pork Dry Ramen, also a simple dish but it tasted slightly better compare to the Grilled Chicken Fried Rice. Overall, the food here is acceptable, their service is good and food serving is fast. I like the environment here too, it is nice to come here for a simple meal during lunch ..

Hoshino Coffee | 星乃咖啡店 @ Queensbay Mall, Penang

By : Chha

Founded in Japan, Hoshino Coffee | 星乃咖啡店 is now in Malaysia. Opening two outlet in Penang only in one year time, Hoshino Coffee is taking over Penang by storm ! One is located in Queensbay Mall while the other one is located in Gurney Plaza.

I like the environment here in Hoshino Coffee, Queensbay Mall, Penang outlet. Though founded in Japan but this restaurant interior design does not look like one, haha, I like it because it looks classy with some western touch to it, haha !

There are a lot of food to choose from their menu but most of it are more to western food with toast, spaghetti, rice and paella.

Mentaiko Carbonara RM 32.90

My favorite food here at Hoshino Coffee, I would say is this plate of Mentaiko Carbonara. It is actually made from Angel Hair Pasta, the Carbonara is not very creamy making tasty in my opinion, I like it !

Vanilla Souffle with Chocolate Sauce RM 15.80

I don’t really know how to eat this Vanilla Souffle, haha .. instead of pouring the Chocolate Sauce onto the Vanilla Souffle, I cut it into pieces and dip it into the Chocolate Sauce, haha ! It takes approximately around 20 minutes to get the Vanilla Souffle ready and there are three type of Souffle that you can choose from where is the, Vanilla Souffle with Custard Sauce or Chocolate Sauce and Matcha Souffle.

Japanese Milkcoffee RM 13.10

Japanese Milkcoffee is serve with extra milk at the side, just in case you would like to add more milk to the coffee. You can also choose whether or not to have syrup with the Milkcoffee, there are three type of syrup to choose from, Caramel, Chocolate or Honey, if you add syrup the price will become RM 14.00. Food here is tasty, I like how they mix Western and Japanese food together to make the food more interesting to try on, haha .. Environment is nice and service is good too.

Logs Smoke House @ Phuah Hin Leong, Georgetown, Penang

By : Chha

Many of you probably tried Smoked Duck but let me ask, how many of you tried Smoked Chicken ? haha ! Good news to all Penangites, Logs Smoke House is here to serve you The Best Smoked Chicken in Town.

Officially open on 20 October 2018, Logs Smoke House which is located along Phuah Hin Leong Street in Georgetown, Penang is serving Smoked Chicken as a Take Away Premium Fast Food. Logs Smoke House only serve Take Away Smoked Chickens and there is no dine in at their outlet in Phuah Hin Leong Street. You can make your order by calling them first then collect your order from their shop or you can walk right in to make your order.

There are many set of Smoked Chicken with Side Dish that you can choose from, there are the Picnic Yummy set which include a Quarter Smoked Chicken + choice of up to 3 side dish which is enough for one person. If you having a Quarter Smoked Chicken is not enough for you, Logs Smoke House also serve the Camping Combo which include a Half Smoked Chicken + choice of up to 2 side dish. You can always add on drinks to the set.

If you only want to try their Smoked Chicken then you can order from their ala carte menu where you can choose from either ordering the entire Whole Chicken, Quarter Chicken or Chicken Breast. I find that the chicken breast is kinda suitable for people who are working out and looking to build that extra muscle, as it save you all the hassle from preparing your own Chicken Breast.

Well, the owner of Logs Smoke House is a nature loving person, he spend a lot of his time outdoor hiking, camping and being close to nature. Being out in the wild means you have to prepare the food by yourself and by using wood the owner start up the fire and start cooking. Over the years he has perfected his technique in cooking Smoked Chicken. To him, the quality of the Smoked Chicken is the most importance, therefore he takes the responsibility in making sure that he only use good, premium ingredients in cooking his Smoked Chicken !

I am glad that i had the chance to try this Smoked Chicken first hand from the person who is well versed in cooking the Smoked Chicken, from the type of wood they use to the technique on how to cook a tasty Premium Smoked Chicken.

1 Quarter Chicken + Butter Rice, Mashed Potato, Garlic Bread

I am a small eater so i order their Picnic Yummy with 3 side dish but then i end up ordering another Quarter Chicken Ala Carte because i like it !

In short, i like every little things that is put into this set of Picnic Yummy. The Smoked Chicken is tasty even till its bone, every bite of the Smoked Chicken is tasty. Unlike other chicken that i have tried where the taste is only strong on the outside but inside it is bland. The Chicken is juicy and not too dry. The skin is not too hard and is well cooked. It feels like as if the owner marinated the chicken with herbs, well that is what it taste like to me .. I can smell the herbs like smell even before i bite into the Chicken. Butter Rice side dish is tasty too, not too buttery and not too bland, the rice is well cooked and not too hard nor too soft, i like it .. The same goes to their Mashed Potato, where it is home made and i can taste the small pieces of potato in it. As a whole, i Love the food here !

Menu :

Logs Smoke House also take customize order for any occasion. If you would like to have a Whole Smoked Chicken for Christmas with your family, you may make your order up front by calling them or even for Chinese New Years and any other occasion that you deem appropriate. So order now and try these tasty Smoked Chicken.

Italiannies @ Queensbay Mall, Bayan Lepas, Penang

By : Chha

Italiannies is one of many restaurant which is in Queensbay Mall but Italiannies is famously known for bringing uniquely rustic Italian cuisine to the tables. From what i know, there is only two outlet of Italiannies in Malaysia, one is in Kuala Lumpur and another one is in Queensbay Mall, Penang.

In my opinion, there is nothing much about Italiannies for me to shout about, well, they do serve variety of food here and their serving portion is big but in terms of taste, I find it average.

Chicken and Mushroom Pasta

This Chicken and Mushroom Pasta is actually a new menu for Italiannies. I order this during lunch hour from their lunch set menu which is available from Monday to Friday until 3.00 pm only, it cost RM 16.30 and it comes with a complimentary glass of bottomless drinks. The Chicken and Mushroom Pasta is actually, spaghetti with sautéed chicken, mushrooms and spinach with chilli, sweet cherry tomato and crispy spinach.

Creme Brulee RM 17.05

Creme Brulee here is huge, I was expecting a regular size Creme Brulee but was surprise to see that size when served in Italiannies, it is good though, at least I can eat a lot a lot of Creme Brulee, haha !

Environment here is nice and their service is good too, it would be a nice addition to your list of places to eat during lunch, well at least now you have more place to choose from rather than to head ache where to eat during lunch in Bayan Lepas area, haha !
