Caffe Strada, Crystal Point, Penang

Thanks to Alan for inviting me for the review and I definitely enjoyed myself with a filled tummy.

The first thing I asked was if this strada is related to the one at the P.Tikus one, and it seemed that both are of different owners (separate entity). It was just a coincidence that the owner chose 'Strada' as they wanted the restaurant as an italian street concept (I hope I got it correct!).

Play some games while waiting for your food :)
And a glass of iced lemon tea with a tinge of lemongrass..

Why am I waiting?

Patiently waiting for others to come as I was pretty punctual. :D


I personally love this shot... having the right composition/contrast - I hope (and I think)

Hot chocolate (with colorful flowery marshmallows), strawberry frappe and chocolate frappe.

The first time I tasted the chocolate, I was wondering, why didn't the chocolate tasted like nutella? Then, I tried on the chocolate frappe and had the same feeling. It didn't taste like nutella again ( I'm a great fan of nutella - espeically imported ones).

So, I started asking the owner and it seemed like they are using DaVinci products (probably $7.99 per bottle for 12 servings)

Mango frappe and orange jewel milk shake

My favourite coz it's SOURISH. :p

Cappucino - if you want longer nights.

Chocolate Mint cake (their own recipe)

Now... here comes the REAL food..

Green Garden Salad

According to the owner, he wanted to create more salad dishes but it seems like it's not very much liked by the crowd, thus now, I guess, this is the only salad menu they have.

Seafood chowder in Bread bowl - if you are a celery lover (health freak), then you'll love this

The only chicken dish I prefer - Mongolian Chicken

Grilled butter fish (cut the fats!)

and lastly, finger licking good chicken wing with their specialty hot and spicy sauce

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 afternoon at Dannok

Living at the northern side of Malaysia makes it really convenient and easy to go 'overseas'. For us, going to our neighboring country, be it Thailand or Singapore by land or by flight is really easy. I'm always a fan of Thai food, and with the remaining Thai bahts that I had since my last Bangkok trip (which I didn't finish even crossing the border a couple or times), I decided to go Dannok for FOOD again. So, it's a day trip or rather, half day tour to Dannok For the past few weeks, I was searching for insta / blog /facebook posts if there is any other new hangouts in Dannok, but sadly, I couldn't find many bloggers who write about it. The funny part is, I already blogged about it two years ago. The immigration complex in Malaysia is new. I nearly couldn't recognize it, while passing to get our passport checked. As I didn't want to drive over, we parked our car at the Zon Duty Free. As I entered, I took the wrong ticket (which parking rate is RM3...
