Lim Aik Chew Review

So what made me drop by this remote place far from the island of Penang? It was by chance that I was helping one of my scout leaders for a scout camp that I got introduced to this gem far south of the mainland Penang. Little did I know that it would capture my attention like no other due to the fact that the dishes served are fresh and one of a kind.

Fresh Water Prawns aka Lobsters

Look at the size of these prawns

Extra large sea water prawns for their famous curry prawns

Home made curry freshly made on a daily basis

Steamer for prawns and bread

 


While snooping around the kitchen, they prepared the fresh water prawns for steaming

The 3 flavoured fish is first fried before the secret sauce is poured all over

Hot piping bread fresh from the steamer. Imagine you were to open one slice from another and the steams starts coming out and the aromas fills the air around.

Fresh sugar cane drink to quench your thirst while waiting for the spicy curry prawns


The outcome... Curry prawns best eaten with fresh piping hot bread

Their 3 flavoured fish

And last but not least their Steamed Fresh Water Prawns

So now you are full and could hardly move, what do you do? Take a stroll around the area for the scenery. I would strongly recommend the bridge.

Curiosity kills the cat - CALIMOCHO @ THE WINE SHOP Penang

Image
Curiosity kills the cat? Why? Cause I tried this cola called curiosity cola from Fentimans once and now I am hooked for life. Some time ago I was invited to try this drink called Calimocho at The Wine Shop in Penang. For those who do not know what it is, it's actually a mixture of wine and cola in equal proportion served with ice in it. The blend? Perfect and not to mention best drink on a hot warm day. Not too sweet, not too alcoholic. I was wondering why they didn't bring this to Penang much earlier. The cola used was imported all the way from the UK by Exclusivetea Sdn Bhd. What makes it one of a kind is that Curiosity Cola from Fentimans was botanically brewed. The taste is not as sweet as any other cola in the market but it brings back memories of those cola candy I once had when I was still a kid. We were also served The Wine Shop's famous dishes, oven fresh "vegetarian pizza"   Best wine pairing "Cheese Platter" and juicy...

Pants on fire while it's down

I was at my friends place some time ago and he is one who always bragged about how many girlfriends he has outside. Oh. By the way he has is married. We were having tea at his place because of some "business" proposals to settle. He was seating quietly reading his morning paper drinking coffee with me. Suddenly, his wife came from behind with a frying pan and almost knocked him senseless then and there. Friend : What was that for? You know pain one anot? Wife : Why do you have a piece of paper in your coat pocket with "Daisy" written on it? Friend : Oh honey, don't you remember two weeks ago before the Chinese New Year when I went to the horse races? Daisy was the name of the horse I bet on. His wife was satisfied with his answer and apologized for wacking him. This morning I went to his place and the same thing happened. The wife came with a frying pan also and wacked him so hard on his head that he can barely stand up after that. Friend : What is this for this...
