Truffles

As per Wiki, Chocolate truffles are a group of chocolate confectionery, traditionally made with a chocolate ganache center coated in chocolate or cocoa powder.
This is another chocolate which I personally think it is Special comparing to those chocolate that I had before that came from US. What so sepcial about this Chocolate? It is coated with Cocoa Powder which will definitely give you a good taste that you ever have before.
Again, this is a gift given by a China colleague who went to US on Business Trip and brought this back to Penang for us! :P Try this is you manage to get this~ I am sure you will like it very much as I am.

Mon Cheri / Mon Chéri

Mon Chéri is an internationally known brand name of the Italian Ferrero company for a chocolate confectionery.

The Mon Chéri is a single-wrapped, combination, consisting of a "heart" of cherry, floating in a special liqueur and contained in a plain chocolate housing.

Mon Chéri actually comes from French and means "My Dear".
Above are the explanation that extracted from WIKIPEDIA on what is Mon Cheri. Most of us in the office like to have this Mon Cheri since one of our colleagues back from Germany. That time, she brought back a few boxes of Mon Cheri for us. It is something special. A Cherry floating in a special liqueur and coatted with Chocolate. You may try this Chocolate if you have a chance to visit Germany next time. I am sure you will agree with me that this chocolate is unique and special. We love it!

Flame Restaurant Steamboat



I'm clearing those "unwanted" pictures in my computer and found these photos which I took a few months back. We went to Flame Restaurant Bagan Jermal Penang for my colleague- Sharon's Birthday. We had buffet Steamboat. Eat all you can. The soup was salty. Not really satisfy with the soup as well as the meat ball. May be the put too much of salt when they made the soup.


One more thing I found from this shop is, they are honest. They charged us more than actual price which I didn't realised that when I paid with Credit Card and Signed. The Manager called me up a day later to inform me and said sorry for over charged us due to typo. Frankly speaking, the Manager is friendly enough and she even gave us a free "Birthday MEE" as she knew that we're celebrating birthday after the steamboat! They actually opened 2 branches in Penang Island- Bagan Jermal and Crystal Point (Map shown above).


I forgot how much I paid for it. From their website, the buffet dinner is RM 23.90++ for Adult but I paid more than that. Why? because we need to pay for the birthday girl as well! :P

Hokkien Mee@ Gat Lebuh Presgrave 三條路網寮

Talking about Hokkien Mee, the 1st place I will visit at night will be the one that located at Gat Lebuh Presgrave (3rd Road, Georgetown). The stall is actually the same row as Kwong Wah Yit Poh but you need to cross the Jalan CY Choy in order to reach the stall at the roadside. Usually, I will have my dinner or supper here. My favourite Hokkien Mee/ Loh Mee. Rm 2.70 per bowl. Have you try this Hokkien Mee before? Check this stall out now. I am sure you will have the same thinking as me. Decilious!
