Blogging By Mail 3


hi all..

I was curiously hopping thru each and every (almost) foodblog that i saw..
then i came to read that they do have food-blog events..

like the one i just saw in Emily's La Dolce Vita.
She did the In The Pink food event to create awareness for Breast Cancer.
was quite interesting. the bloggers that participated cooked or baked something in pink
and she did a round-up for it .. so do check out..

and then i dropped by Cathy's my little kitchen to see that she's hosting the Blogging By Mail 3.
It's actually bloggers swapping 'food or recipes or anything listed' to one another.
then they have to post up an entry about what the blogger swapped..
and of course what u sent as well

so this time around.. the theme of the event's Home for the Holidays

....."I propose that this time around your package include some or all of the following:

A Food Section from your local paper
A grocery store flyer from a store where you shop
A photo of your kitchen
A favorite holiday recipe
A food item made from a family recipe (and the recipe!)
A handwritten note from you explaining a bit about the package contents,
t
elling about an important holiday for your family and your traditions for that holiday,
and telling about your plans for the upcoming holiday season...."

and so .. i signed up for it.. ahha ...
it'll be fun thinking of what to send ..
and thinking of what u'll get. .ahhaha

be sure to check out the link on the left.. there're some worthy n fantastic foodblogs..
there's a whole lota stuffs..
some of the locals ones are Masak-Masak, MalaysiaBest by 5xmom, MakanSakan and
Yummy Corner

celebrity chefs : Jamie Oliver and Kylie Kwong

my current fave is .. she who eats..
actually.. i like them all.. ahhahaha

ciao...

Penang Village Restaurant


yay! i'm first. yeah cause miss yeemei is too busy with her assignments and test...
while me ? no need to say much. i'm plain lazy. bah.

so.. first review
hah.. hope it'll be interesting ..

Place    : Penang Village Restaurant
At         : Taipan & Tmn Tun
Cuisine : Nyonya / Malay

unfortunately, we went during tea time around 3pm .. so the menu's abit different
it's written Tea-Break Menu (with limited food)

so maybe they have more food during lunch and dinner.

For appetizer, we ordered the Penang Village Pie-Tie
presented nicely.
the filling was something like.. pohpia filling, with crabstick meat, cashewnut..
rating : 3.5 / 5 (i think the pie-tie in chicken rice shop is nicer ...)  *yeemei agrees with sweesan!*


sorry for the poor quality.. twas taken with phone

then we ordered Penang Villate Nasi Lemak
nicely presented again.
the rice was moulded in a square shape
served with Rendang Chicken, Prawn and Sambal of course. and ...
that vege thing... which i dont know what's the name of it.. hahaha
Rating: *let yeemei do the job*    yeemei thinks that the nasi lemak is rather nice...give it a 4/5


Nasi Lemak

then i had .. Penang Village Nasi Tomato
almost the same as the nasi lemak but my rice was moulded in a cone shape
and i had rendang chicken, a few pieces of malay-styled lobak, popadum and the sour vege thingy
Rating: 4/5 (everything was good but maybe they should give more rendang or sambal or something)


Nasi Tomato

em.. overall rating would be 3.5/5 lah.. basically maybe because we went at the wrong time.
so the 2-shop-lots restaurant looked very empty except for out table and other workers.
and... cause of that .. we got a limited choices of food to pick ...

Other food listed in the menu are like.. Kuey Teow Soup, Fishball noodle..
alil bit chinese food there as well.. but nevertheless,
we're quite satisfied with our food..

yeah cause we were darrrnnn hungry before that..
