Famous Roadside Fried Snack at Chulia Street, Penang

So, we were eating at Chulia Street sometime ago and decided to review on the wan tan mee or more so the one we had a post of the battle between two wan tan mee, which you can read here! And while we were there, we saw this stall and decided to try it out! No regrets whatsoever since then. Curiosity hah :)

You must know by now, that we both are BIG LOVERS of snacks and we LOVE snacking away everytime we see a snack stall. Okay, maybe not everytime. Most of the time la! Anyways, enjoy this post I hope you will. Go give it a try if you haven't try it! :)

They have a few different kind of FRIED snacks. Non-halal by the way.

Fresh from the deep-frying and people are ordering away all the good stuff d.

Char Siew Foldover - RM1.30/piece
He says: Crispy outside and char siew which is really good inside.
She says: It's like a normal crispy fried stuff with pork meat (char siew) inside. It's quite nice. The inside ingredient is good :)

Yam Cake - RM1.30/piece

He says: This one gotta be in one of my top snacks list in Penang! You go try it then you'll know =)
She says: The crispyness outside and the soft tender porky meat with cubes of sweet potatoes, BEST COMBI EVER! This is the best yam cake I've ever tasted. I can have lots of these and not get sick of it. The inside is not only soft, it's also tasty. LIKE REALLY TASTY! And I don't eat yam, but for this one, for sure exceptional case! :) GO TRY!

Coconut Ice-Cream at Lovelocks, Chulia Street, Penang

DESSERTS!

We are NOT desserts people, at all.

But then, at one time she suddenly had this madness craving towards coconut ice cream and the only that we could find or know of is the small Thai stalls in Midlands. At the same time somehow, we heard about this coconut ice cream over at Lovelocks. And no need to say d, of course the girl went straight there to give it a try! Let's see what we both think about it! Oh btw, that's the only thing they sell at Lovelocks!


Toppings of which you can add to your ice cream.

 
Homemade daily made Coconut Ice Cream.
4 scoops with 3 toppings at only RM6!

He says: 2 thumbs up! The ice cream melts in your mouth smoothly and the taste of the coconut just spreads through your mouth! really! Give it a try kay!
She says: I didn't want the toppings because then they will give me one extra scoop. Hehe. THIS IS THE BEST COCONUT ICE CREAM EVER! I mean.. BEST ICE CREAM I HAVE EVER TASTED! Can't beat Haagen Daaz or Baskin Robbins. It's smooth and the taste of it is strong but not overly strong. And it's just so refreshing and appetizing! No kidding! Got to try this you all. I kid you not! :D

After you purchase some certain amount, they will give you a lock on which you can write you and your lover's name and lock it there. Pretty cool.

Battle of TWO Wan Tan Mee Stalls in Penang.

We never really would regard ourselves as Wan Tan Mee lovers. Not that we hate it or dislike it but I think we never really go crazy over this hawker food. Not till recently.

This post is specially created like that because we went to two different place in the span of few days. Both also we ate in the midnight, I think. So, here it goes. Our Wan Tan Mee story.

First place we went: Wan Tan Mee at Chulia Street, Penang


Mr Tam Chiak making his order.

It was drizzling that night, hence the lady's fashionable 'pink hat' :)

Wan Tan Mee (used to be called 'Tok Tok Mee in the olden days) - RM2.80
He says: Quite different from other wan tan mees. The noodle is just right! However, the lady gave me a unpleasant look when I ordered the food. Boo sama lu! Bad service..
She says: I wasn't that hungry the night we ate this. So, that's why we only ordered one plate of it. I could smell it even before the pinkhatlady puts it down onto our table. The noodles, not too hard and not too soft. I think what makes this wan tan mee taste so good (and apparently famous too) is the black sauce/gravy that makes or breaks the whole dish. In conclusion ah, I LOVE THIS ONE! :)

Wan Tan Soup - RM3.00 (9 pieces of mini wantons)
He says: Normal la.. 
She says: I like the wantons. Very soft and meaty and juicy. Soup, is pretty okay. Nothing extraordinary le.

Second place we went: Maria's Wan Tan Mee at Burmah Road


Grumpy aunty is grumpy heh.

Wan Tan Mee (thin/fat noodles) - RM3.00
He says: I like this one! The noodles are soft and the gravy is just nice. =) the only downside is that there is no fried wan tans =( haha.
She says: Two different types of noodles. My fav is the fat one! That's my order btw! The noodles are okay. It's more to the hard side but still nice. The sauce/gravy is just ok ok to me. Very normal kind of wan tan mee that any other place also have d.

Dumpling Soup - RM0.80 per piece (minimum of 4 pieces)
He says: Gah.. expensiveeee.. Very small and little pieces of prawn and pork inside. But its good =D
She says: I LOVE THESE DUMPLINGS! Got prawn and pork meat inside. What makes it so nice is the mixture of herbs/veges that's part of the filling. Such brilliant idea. And the soup, very tasty! :)

Maria's Wan Tan Mee at Golden City Coffeeshop, Penang

So, in any battle, there must be a winner and a loser, right?

Let's see who likes what!

HIS YAY: The second one =) Ma-ri-yah ma-ri-yah....! 

HER YAY: DEFINITELY THE FIRST ONE. The one along Chulia Street! The wan tan mee has more aroma than Maria's. Though I have to say that the dumplings at Maria's are a lot nicer (but expensive ehh)! My all-time-winner would still be Chulia Street's Wan Tan Mee (that's of course until I go find and taste better ones!) For now, *cheers* CHULIA STREET! CHULIA STREET!

AIYO! No winner ehh!

Guess what! We are gonna determine the winner and loser with your help! Very simple! There will be a YELLOW poll box on the right side of this blog. Simply click which wan tan mee you like more and we will see who the winner is.

Is this going to be like the 'battle of the sexes"? Hmm..

So, join us and let's see who will win this battle for the first time? He? She?

We will find out very soon! :)

Old Trafford Burger at Chulia Street, Penang

That particular moment right after dinner when she craves for burger. And it's not McD's burger. Life is a lot nicer if it's McD since McD is like everywhere and you can order delivery.

When craving comes, you gotta satisfy it, you know. Life's too short not to do that. Heh.

So, he thought of a place after picking her up from the house. Old Trafford's Burger he said. Famous he said. Such crazy MU fan she said.

So here it goes. The burger stalls that all Manchester United fans should at least give it a try. They are opened until 4 o'clock in the morning, so you can go makan after football matches! See whether you all really true fans or not. Haha. Of course it's not like people are gonna judge you if you said you haven't give it a try! *eyes wide open* If like that, all the MU-inspired-shops sure will do well, considering the MANY fans they have out there! :) oh btw, in case you do not know already that he is one HUGE fan of the red devils. HUGE I tell you. We can have endless hours of conversations on this club, right from how and when the club started (sometimes, i really listen to entertain him and give him a bit face la since he's so into it! Haha)

Okay okay. Speak no more. time to find out who loves it and who doesn't!

Menu. Burger ada, hot dogs pun ada. Oblong also they have. Just name it what you want and it shall be given, with a price tag. Also, they serve french fires at your request. RM1.00 to add.

Must be one really hugeee fan of the red devils.

Burger Special Chicken - RM4.50
He says: Old Trafford burger? mestilah try! This one is good! but not that great though.. The mixture of the sauces tastes a bit weird =S Like how the tomatoes are cut into small pieces though =) 
She says: That's his bite! So big heh his mouth! Kidding!! Okay, the burger bun is soft and huge. And can actually taste the butter on it, which makes the bun really yummy. The patti is surprisingly soft I like how he slices the meat patti into half and then lay the cheese in the middle of the meat. That way, it really melts. The sauce is not overwhelming. It's just right. I like this one! :)
