Santorini Cafe, Penang

Santorini is an island in Greece, a destination I would like to add to my Trip Advisor - places I have visited however untill that dream come true, I would settle for Santorini Cafe in Penang. 



They have set lunch as well as set dinner. We were there for a birthday celebration dinner and we were spoiled for choice. I went with the signature dish explained further below.


The ice lemon tea is part of the set when you add RM5 in addition to your main Western meal. Mushroom soup is also part of the deal.



Coffee Chicken Chop – RM13.90, this dish is a fusion western style. The batter had been mixed with some coffee powder and applied on to the chicken thigh before it was brought to the pan to be deep fried. It was placed on top of potato wedges, roman lettuce and pickled olive slices. It was then served together with some mayonnaise sauce. The aroma of the coffee was very strong which made this signature dish very unique. The coffee taste blended very well with the chicken and was very appetizing. I'm just going to feature this dish only as it is my favourite. 

Biasness aside, here's the rest of my friends meals. Basically the main dish prices are mainly below RM20.






This was the dessert that came with the set - ice cream.

One of The Santorini Proprietor.
She was nice to give the birthday lady this simple nice designed dessert, ice cream with cherries.


A home baked marble cake and an exquisite white moscato wine to end the evening. 




Besides that, there is also a tatami dining area for those who love a Japanese dining experience 
at Santorini Cafe.

Post Cafe, Perak Road, Penang

Post cafe is a nice place for simple celebration or a get together meal. The theme is post office so almost everything non-food is link to the theme. Here we were with the blindfolded birthday girl, not knowing where she has been taken to. Poor girl was clueless and she thought she was standing next to a big dustbin.

She posed but didn't dare touch it...yet, thinking it was a dust bin, believing what her mischievous friends said.
Look out for the big signboard at the side of the road to look for it, hard to miss.

The set meals were reasonably priced ranging from RM12.90 to RM 25 and with an additional RM 1, you get a semi buffet consisting of refillable drink, soup and salad.My liking would be the barbecue sauced chicken, the mash potato and the dessert which was the jelly. The rest that I tried from others was just alright for me. Get all the information you need at their website given below. Very informative!:)







Birthday girl all so happy being the celebrity of the day. Thanks to Post Cafe for the personalized birthday cake.

Madam Soon at E-Gate, Penang

courtesy of Penang Restaurant Directory
I love Nyonya food, not because I'm half Nyonya but its the richness in taste that attracts me. My first time to Madam Soon at E-Gate was fulfilling. I was fascinated with the small order notepad the waiter was using and asked to take a picture of it. And it looks like we ordered a lot by looking at those codes but we did not. I wondered what some of the codes meant.


The Sambal Prawns were among our top tastiest and then the braised Pork Ribs as well. My friends enjoyed the pumpkin cakes which I suggest to eat it while its hot or it becomes rather unappetizing. 
I poured lots of the curry of the assam fish onto my rice, something I quite like to do for curries that I like. 
Inchi Kabin was really good too. The Lor Bak was not to my fancy though. 
Wifi is available and service is commendable.
Nyonya Style Sambal Prawn - RM16.90

Assam Curry Fish - RM17.90

Deep Fried Chicken Lor Bak - RM 8.90

Inchi Kabin - RM9.90

Braised Farlic Pork Ribs - Rm16.90

Pumpkin Cake - RM4.90

Double Boiled Longan Sea Coconut - RM5.90
