It has been 3 weeks I trapped in this very isolated place , which known as a place that provide a green environment for us to study or A.K.A Forest. 1 year of spending at this place will totally change you into Orang Hutan instead of Orang Utan.
Since meals are provided here, so nothing to worries I guess……..hahahahah
We have ‘variety’ of cuisine of choices, which is the Malay , Chinese, Vege and Indian. Those food prepared by Jaya Catering are almost the same which the main ingredient of cooking is CURRY!!! Ouch, it`s really hot…..If you know what I mean ;)
We have never running out of chicken and we are having them on our plate almost every meals. Of course, there are fishes also but it`s just too small that will never fill your appetite out.
3 week of chicken really making us 发鸡瘟 (crazy), so we started to hunt for food around Sungai Petani town.
We searched with the web , blogs and finally got some information with a local friend which introduced us into a cheap and nice restaurant.
白糖海鲜 Bai Tang Seafood
This restaurant is located in a Kopitiam and their signboard also not so significant as they put it up inside the Kopitiam cafe.
The first sight was this placed crowded with people, I guess it was the dinner time.
Without hesitation, we ordered some recommended dishes from the board.
We look around as we wanted to order some drinks.
As usual we will order tea but after had a peep , people around are having juices so we ordered Watermelon, Lime and Plum and 沙梨 Plum (Pear Plum).
Guess what???
They are only cost Rm 4.8 for 3!!!!
Incredible cheap if compare to KL
1st dish came.
It`s their Signature Tauhu (Bean Curd)
Look at them, you might feel like, ah ha, just another one disdain dish.
It`s not, it tastes good. The bean curd are handmade and not from those packet seafood tauhu form market.
The taste give us a sense of simplicity that Sungai Petani-an live on everyday.
And FYI, they dont use MSG for cooking.
Doesnt feel boring of eating it.
Tada,
Gam Heong Fried Sotong.
As Sungai Petani is nearby the seashore so those seafood can be obtained easily which fresh and cheap.
Their Gam Heong is different from Kl, theirs is the wet type with has the gravy.
It`s nice to eat the plain rice with the gravy.
The experienced cook is just know how to cook this Sotong.
It was a like 10 seconds cook on the wok before served.
Trust me, it`s soft and nice to chew
Salad 油条
This was my first time experience of having 油条 as a dish of food.
Look at their mayonnaise, they are not stingy. :)
Inside the 油条 was filled with minced meat and some vege .
Yum yum, each bite giving out crunchy that make you wont stop eating them....
Nice try
Argh , finally I tasted pork here. Been 3 weeks of chicken !!!
Oh yeah, mouthful of saliva when seeing it sending on his way.
This is the 咸猪手 Salted Foot
and it was served with the sauce made of the thai chili sauce and some garlic with red shallot.
Yes, it tastes salty but dipped with the sauce has just neutralise the saltiness and make it more ''interesting''
Look from the side, making us irresistible to it .
It was marinated with salt and Kunyit powder before it was deep fried till crunchy.
It might need a day time to marinate.
Yummy yummy.
We knew there will be second time visit and we are not done with their signature dishes yet.
白糖, definitely will be out 1st choice come to head when we want to have dinner.
You wont believe, all this is just Rm 40.00 which has been discounted 40 cents.
and their services from the waitress are friendly and efficient too.
It`s located in Sungai Petani town, near Tungku Aminah which the way to Water Park.
