Chinese Version

Browsing

Burger joints are popping out every where, and its a trend. Well, lets go something classic in street style that I recently I was introduce a homemade street burger patty that run by Chinese couple. I have read Jacksons Burger is homemade by the uncle himself quite a while back and only remember bout it when Ken bring me over to dine at this stall.

Its not too hard to find them as I have read some blog that they always move around. Well, I have been here a few times and its still in the same location. Their burger price is definately cheap.

They do not have a proper dining in around the premises as they run the burger stall in a little truck and we can take their plastic chairs to sit there and dine. They sell soft drinks too.

What is interesting is that they do have their special homemade CRAB patty that Ken ask me to try. Of course I do a mix then, beef and crab.

Of course my burger need to have added egg and cheese. If not it would not be a perfect one for me.

Then my burger is ready, it smells very good with the fluffy bread being well pan fried that I can even smell the majerine of it.

Smack in betteen the bread and all the ingredients, here comes the Chinese version of burger that is pretty similiar to another famous stall in Penang, Hill Side. The patty are grill to little cruncy for my Crab patty and beef are just perfect. For afternoon lunch, its a good satisfying one. For Chinese to come out such burger, they are consider good. Surely cannot be compare with Ramlee burger as its slightly different style

As most of us know that Penang is really famous for its hawker food, and one of the place that I have nearly forgeten which is really famous for hawker food during afternoon among the locals under the very hot atap which is located at this Cecil Street Market or known as 7th Street market (Chit Tiau Loh Market in Hokkien), one of the busiest market in Penang filled with lots of fresh variety of ingredients also which is sardine packed with lots of nice hawker food. Can say that majority of the hawker here are old school that had pass to their kids now. Cecil Street Market

This hawker center is at peak during lunch hour and tea time that visited by a lot of people from offices and neighborhood. Do prepare to soak in sweat as the place is very hot under our hot sunny days.

pasembur (1)

Well, in Penang there are two types of Pasembor, one which is the Chinese version which adds on with a bit of jelly fish and pretty similar to the Indian version.

As for the indian version is also known as Pasembor or another word is Rojak Mamak that is also used in KL with the term known as Rojak, that actually fills with shereded cucumber, potatoes, beancurd, bean sprouts, and prawn fritters as for seafood like spicy fried crab, fried octopus or others are all optional, served along with sweet and spicy nut sauce.

pasembur (2)

One of my favourite stall in this area is this Pasembur that I had eat since when I was a kid and now the younger generations had took over from their parents. This stall is one of the famous stall in the hawker center.

Most of the time I have been here, this stall never stop working or never once I have seen them free. . Constantly chopping off the ingredient to meet the customer’s demand.

pasembur (3)

One of their secret is that the gravy.

pasembur (4)

This is one of my favourite Pasembor as the gravy is a bit sweet and spicy that blends very well with shredded mengkuang, cucumber and little mouse (as what i called in hokkien by translation). Then the unique in this stall is that they do add shredded jelly fish . . RM2.80

I would say one of my favourite pasembor and if you do visit Penang and in the afternoon, this hot place is one of the place you would want to consider for hawker food. Recommended~

Time really flies, and never thought its mid of June already and reminds us about Jonathan’s Birthday. When he remind us about his birthday, it feels like just celebrated with him few months ago and actually not it was a year ago. Ishin Japanese Dining.

We delay one day to celebrate with him to make it lunch on Friday, and places that ended up voting by most of them is to ala carte menu of Japanese food at Old Klang Road, anyway, who could resist japanese food?

Ishin

This restaurant is located at the side of Old Klang Road, if you did not notice it, it would be just a plain bungalow as it is conversion of bungalow to restaurant.

Genre: Comedy
If you do ever watch Scary Movie, and you know what kind of movie is that, then this is the movie in Chinese version which is a few compilation of a few movies to come out with this super ‘mou liew’ show.

Good enough to kill some time, Movie day or DVD would be the best option.

I have been always told by my friend saying that if go to Hong Kong must try out the MacD. Cuz got PORK! So the lunch we grab MacD nearby my hotel there. The best thing about their MacD also they got their very own Mac Cafe. Which is I can see that selected outlets and the one that I went heard my friend said that the coffee there is better than StarBucks.
This is the ‘Pork McMuffin. Which is the only pork thing that they have as another 1 is ‘Double Ham Burger’ out of stock..ISHH!!! The other looks more tempting and delicious. So No choice have to grab this. To me actually it is not much different compare to the daily MacD breakfast that we are eating everyday. Nothing special to comment about it. The medium set is HKD 28

But this my order.Quater Pounder. Medium Set HKD30. I think that Malaysia version is nicer and taste better especially the beef pattie. The grilling process not as juicy and cheezy as what I had. But their concept of the burger is for healthy purpose. When you eat it at least you wont feel guilty..haha

I am totally impress by the taste of ‘Grilled Chicken Burger’. It is like when we eat Ramlee burger chicken but this is the Chinese version of Ramleee burger I would rate. Taste very good. The chicken breast meat is soft and grill to perfection, the sauce that mix in it taste very good. I would say that it is a item worth trying.

Find that their box is nice~ Even though do not know what are they writing on the box besides the Grilled Chicken Burger.

The ‘Grilled Chicken Burger’

I found out that the website of MacD Hong Kong version is very nicely done.Worth to check it out~

A suprise given by very very bestie, Siew Li and Yeong Yong. It was really a surprise as we had organise a BBQ by the poolside on that day. Then as I was sitting inside their house watching don know chinese version of the American Idol as was talking with Annie as I asked her alot about the contestants and the rules of how the contestant go through the rounds and to my surprise Siew Li walked out holding the cake and singing birthday songs to me. I was so shocked, as I would not expect that they will do that. It was also pre celebrate as after this they will be going back to Penang for a few days.

A very nice cake they got for me

This is a Lemon Cheeze Cake. By Bread Story if not misaken. The cheeze is quite nice, not too salty yet have lemon taste in there, just mild, not too strong. With sweet strawberries.

Cheng cheng cheng, come come, me a year older liau…**** time really flies, Think back of last year how we celebrated and how we have grown… Geliness of how the year pass.

This is my bestie Siew Li and Yeong, sorry, cant be in here cuz she is the 1 helping me to take the picture. Two of you guys had been helping me alot, and cannot be denied that you guys are the closest friend that I had. Well, think back , we had know each other for 3 years already and it feels more like 20 years we have known. With you guys around, it is always so happening and of course learning and doing things together that makes us so close. I must thank both of you for part of what I am today.

Making a wish, namo namo namo.
1.Of course everyone stay happy & healthy always
2.Of course everyone achieve in what they had dream and wish for.
3. Of course it is SECRET!!!!!

Preparing to savor the cakes. Celaka Annie is already eating it before me but today I learned another culture which is the cakes must be give to the 1 which are more senior. Part of it that the younger people can respect them in the future. As I always thought that the birthday guy/gurl have to eat first before everyone can eat. Annie, so you are the first as you are the eldest. Lol~
Seriously, I got another surprise from them. A gift!!!! I never had such a big gift from them. RAOUL gift. Thank youuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~~
This is what is in there. A mini cooper classic cuff link as they know my dream car is to get a Mini Cooper. So this is what they got for me.
A very nice pair of caff ling. Appreciate that, as I know it is very hard to find.
Thank you and many many thank you~!~!~!~
