Tai Tong Restaurant

    Tai Tong Restaurant 大东酒楼 @ Lebuh Cintra, Penang. 16 August 2009
    Tai Tong Restaurant is a old dim sum house (老茶楼), they got around 60 years in history. I like here not because of their history, but because of the nice food and they still can maintain the quality till now.
    Normally I like to visit Tai Tong during night session, feel like the dim sum is more “fresh”. My dad claim that during his morning session visits, the dim sum seem like not so fresh. May be due to night session they can’t finish selling it, they leave it until morning session. This is my assumption only !!!
鸿图面

鸿图面

    Not much of Penang people know about “鸿图面”, this is a cantonese dish. I had introduce it to some of my friends before. They like it so much. I will rather said “鸿图面” is a poor people ‘鱼翅“, the “law”/soup comprise of crab meat,egg and others seafood. So far I only like the “鸿图面” from Tai Tong and 桃园茶楼(Tao Yuan Restaurant).

Restoran Sweet Paradise (超全茶樓)

Dim Sum @ Raja Uda, Butterworth. 28 December 2008

    Before my sister family leave Penang, just bring them go to raja uda area to have some dim sum. When we reach there, already around 10 am +, seem like the famous tai pau already sold out. Due to my brother in law is rushing go back to KL, we having a very “fast” dim sum breakfast. Overall the food there is excellent. Due to running out of times and we reach there quite late, the famous tai pau and Steam Fish Head with Rice Vermicelli will try it next round, if I got chances to visit this shop again. Compare to Penang island dim sum, seem like this shop dim sum is more variety. Next time, I will try those dim sum that I never try before !!!!
