Clinic Cafe, Gurney Plaza, Penang

It is pretty interesting to have a clinic cafe at Gurney Plaza.
I'm surprised that there is still crowd there, mainly patroned by women and teenagers.
Why would we want to pay a visit to a clinic when we are still well?
Anyway, they have pretty doctors and nurses to assist us (service is not-too-bad).
They do have a range from western to chinese, and I would say that the price is pretty reasonable for a theme restaurant in a shopping mall.

Need help with the wheelchair?

Clinic Specialist RM8.80


Ketchup in the Syringe

Clinic Sandwich - Rm7.80

Clinic Crispy Chicken salad - RM11.80


Doctor & Nurse (kaya and butter toast bread) - RM2.80

Our drinks





Our orders.
It was quite difficult to get attention from the waiters/waitresses.
I actually suggested them to get the buzzers like the ones in pizza hut :)

we had bad experience there.Food n service was bad.In fact the names of the food is dull n not innovative.They r just playing with the medical profession like the kidney dishes n the respectable stethoscope lying on the table.Too bad that theme restaurants had gone down to so low level.

My family experienced unhygenic and poor attitude of the waitresses. My son's got eggshell and newspaper cutting in the fried rice. Upon complaning, unhappy faces from waitress and was changing full bill with service charge into the bill. Cashier throw my change on the counter not happy with my feedback. Asked to see the Manager, replied NO MANAGER in restaurant. Took the rude staff picture but challenge me by taking my pics too. Sigh........what suck attitude for a restaurant that opens only barely a month plus and also advert their outlet in THE STAR on 15/09/10 claiming everything about their eatery place. I hope relevant authourities should reprimand by closing this outlet.

hopefully the owner/manager would be able to read your comments here..

Bad is also what we had experienced.From toilet cafe to clinic?what else maybe a police station setting cafe.Whether the authorities willa llow people or the public to impersonate as police officers with handcuffs etc etc just like what they had pla doctors n beliitle n look down on this noble profession.They should make a police cafe or like maybe some one suggetsed a coffin shop cafe!!!omg.But its true this restaurant sucks.Y r still the naive n immature taking so many photos.R they coming from the mountain..so ulu!!!

Hi Anonymous..

I have not seen a coffin restaurant yet, but have definitely heard about the Coffin bread.
Coffin Bread (棺材板) is one of taiwan's famous cuisine.

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...
