Yella Fork , Georgetown, Penang

Yella Fork , a cuisine fusion by Australian and Malaysian recipes sets it's ground here recently around a month plus ago. I went in wanting to try their best selection and I believe I did. We were greeted by the owner and head chef of Yella Fork Julian Ooi who was trained in Australia and she's back here collaborating with her brother on delivering Penang a taste from the Down Under.

Starting out with a pleasant latte and cappucino(Fairtrade coffee) and interestingly 50% profit goes to save rainforest in Sabah and Sarawak, 50% goes to the coffee bean farmers in Australia. Something new to my knowledge in the coffee industry.


Moving on to the belly-heartwarming food, here we have the springroll and we got to try their lemon pepper homemade sauce which I liked. A little of sour and tinge of spice in it. It goes well with the salad but I dipped my springroll in it as well. Then the mushroom soup of medium thickness and pleasingly tasty.

Here comes the signature dishes which I quote Julian 'everything is good to me' when I asked which is their signature dish. So, to be specific we picked their Roasted Pork Belly, the pork belly was marinated for 24 hours and the verdict? It was crispy at the side, tender on the inside. Excellent!


Pie in the sky is a chicken pie and its made out from an Australian recipe. Lovin' this and nowadays its hard to come by a good filling chicken pie. I remembered a friend's mom who made fantastic chicken pie when I was in high school and since then every other chicken pie seem mundane. 
At Yella Fork, the sauce seems to complement with the pie. I had a hearty balanced meal.


The sets are pretty flexible and the prices are reasonably priced and no additional taxes included at this time.
