Agate - promote good health, happiness, intelligence, longevity.

An 'apple' aventurine and a heart-shaped blue agate.

Anathai- Siamese homecooked

Some dishes that we ordered 
Siamese laksa



Finally, visited this place that I heard about from What2See: Best of Penang Food's blog.  After confirming that the place is just nearby the Pulau Tikus market, decided to try out this place.  Ordered my favourite otak-otak which was in two version ie; steamed and fried.  Although Fussy M praised that the food here is better than Sabai-Sabai's but to my surprise , still not short of complaint.  Found out that this place serves Kerabu Rice aka salad rice on Saturdays and Sundays.

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival !!!!!!!!

Some basics for the festivals..

Mid-Autumn aka Moon-cake Festival is tomorrow!  These traditional laterns brought back childhood memories.  I still prefer this type of laterns over the electronic ones.  Not much with the electronic laterns although they are safer.

Mooncake Festival is here!!!!!

Can't wait until mid-autumn festival to be here; bought this 'charcoal' mooncake from "Baker's Cottage" to try our first bite, bit expensive cause we didn't get the member's discount.

 My favourites : snow-skin mooncakes to go  with the jasmine tea ....gift from Hong Kong. 
Raspberry and blueberry snow-skin mooncake from "Tai Tong"

Taste of Korean @ Bee Won

Side dishes (f.o.c.) provided by the owner





Chicken ginseng soup



Dolls collection


Owner's collection of memories

The owner's is very friendly and attentive.  After trying out the food, we both decided that we don't really know how to appreciate Korean food but it seemed healthy; without much frying. The BBQ will be nice but expensive.
