Food path - Kai Kee Roast Duck

Found this roast duck stall which is situated behind Chowrasta Market while went in for a Wan Tan Noodle brunch after failing to get one of my favourite duck meat koay teow soup as its coffee shop was closed due to the Haji Holiday.

Also discovered another duck meat koay teow soup stall while on our way to Chowrasta Market 'hunting' for food. (More detailes about it later in another post).

Actually, I have seen this roast duck stall many times but I have never tried it until then. The seller is very friendly and the pricing is reasonable. More importantly, the meat is tender and taste good. The sauce is unique; different from other roast duck stalls; it is not chilli sauce nor sweet sauce. I guess it's made from the juice of the duck itself !



Pricing: whole duck RM28.00

1/2 bird RM14.00


1/4 bird RM 7.00


His stall opens everyday.


p.s. can find the cheapest (although the wan tans are not as good as my favourite stall's)
Wan Tan noodle at this coffee shop. ie., RM2.00

Found these fellows at the Town Hall's mini garden. There are even some reptiles at back of the garden.

Dr. Sun Yat Sen

About 100 years ago in Penang, Dr Sun Yat Sen, the Father of Modern China, convened the plan for the 2nd Guangzhou Uprising, which is also known as the Canton Uprising which eventually leads to the 1911 Revolusion. To commemorate 100 years anniversary of the “Penang Meeting” which was on 13Nov2010, there is a pictorial exhibition of Dr Sun Yat Sen’s life journey during pre-1911 revolution and until his death in 1925.

The 1911 Revolution had a very close-linked with the overseas Chinese, including Penang and other South-east Asia Chinese, as they had very much supported the revolution through not only monetary contribution but also, joining to fight for a new China. Quite a number of the martyrs were from South-east Asia.

Next year, on 10October will be the 100 years anniversary of the 1911 revolution and of course, Modern China will be a century old !!!

From Lorong Kulit

Bought this at Lorong Kulit flea market during Deepavali holiday. Wonder whether it will grow as easy as the seller claimed or another waste of $ item.

p.s. At the time I am blogging, the flower has gone and some flower buds appears to be
not going to bloom, either.

Nine Emperors Festival

This is my first visit to the 9 emperors temple at Hong Kong Street, Penang. I decided to visit this temple for the first time, this year, on 16Oct which was the 9th day of the 9th month in the lunar calender. Met a 'see lai' friend on the way and she told me there weren't as many visitors at this temple compared to the one at Burma Road. So happy I have made the right decision; less crowd the better ! The temple was more than a century old and some of the items were indeed antique ! Different atmosphere from the Burma Rd's temple.

Free vegetarian food was provided but as it was the last day of celebration, they only served fried bee hoon. However, Fussy M gave a thumb's up rating.

p.s. A lottery sold here has won first prize a few years back!

Blooming chilli padi

Our so-called organic chilli padi is too hot to handle and they are ripening too fast. Hence, had been going around looking for chilli-lovers, to share these with them

My eyelid got swollen almost every week. Got to stop all these, so started to 'distribute' them to some chili padi queens friends, ie. LK, my colleagues, alas, now I have to look for some one else as the chili padi queen in my office is having a vacation in Australia. It's a pity that Angie-san doesn't take any chili.
