Jalan2 Cari Makan: Wantan Mee Variety

I was browsing some blogs and read about how much the blogger bragged about the wantan mee stall at Church Street, opposite Peranakan Heritage centre. The kopitiam has the same name as the budget hotel, ENG LOH.

Surprisingly, my sister had been there for lunch. According to her, the place is famous for its variety.

So, here we go.
We went, and the other friend who came along was pretty excited on our way.
As soon as we reached the destination, she went like, "THIS ONE??"
Darn.... big dissapointment for all, because she has been to the place, except me.

So, there we go.
We ordered some toasts with half boiled eggs (RM2.80) and interesting roti taiwan (RM3.20) which happened to be toast with lots of butter, peanut butter and nuts.

If you have high cholestrol, don't ever try it. But if you are a peanut butter lover (me, me, me), please do try !! It's really good and thick!!
I love it!!













As when my friend took out her Nikon, the wantan mee owner thought that we are some columnist, and going to do a write up about the place and post it on the internet.
She kept insisting us to take picture, in mandarin.
According to another friend, they are from KL (gee.. penang food? from kl?? argghh... i'm cheated!!!).
The sui kow which they claimed to be super good -> hm.. i told her she should put more 'prawns', but she went like, it's only RM0.70 per piece!!
What made their wantan mee so special was it was made out of only flour and egg (no water added). But then again, I don't make noodles, so I don't really know if in actual fact, water is added.

Drunken chicken which is supposed to be famous (RM3.50)
But I dont' really like drunken chicken :P

What's the Difference between 'Net' and "Nett"

Since it's part of my group's job to publish daily billings report to the management, our Director (from US) pinpointed that we should fix the spelling of 'nett billings' to 'net billings'. My colleauge was looking at google, trying to understand the 'right' spelling to be used. I finally checked it from Wikipedia , and found that 'nett' is BRITISH and 'net' is AMERICAN. No wonder he's offended to fix it to 'net'! C'mon. I'm in an american MNC, I should be more sensitive towards this.

An Encounter with Gelatissimo

It was an eventful Saturday afternoon. I had an 'appointment' with Gelatissimo , Gurney Plaza, Penang. I have always wished to try gelatos there (since Lecka Lecka has gone for good) and it's the ONLY store serving gelatos in Penang (I think). There you go.. I'm going to blog on my 'encounter' with Gelatissimo. First and foremost, consumers need to be educated the difference between ice-cream (Haagen dazs, Baskin Robbins, Walls etc) and Gelatos. Gelatos is italian frozen ice dessert and the method of making it is different from ice cream . Basically, gelatos has less cream than ice cream and it has higher density (the molecules are nearer as compared with ice cream). Most importantly, I think the fat content is less as it has more original food as compared with ice cream (usually with articificial coloring and flavours). The friendly staff posing for camera. The girl in spectacles would always asked me if I would like to try their flavours. To be honest, I trie...
