Songkhla Kitchen at Abu Siti Lane, Penang

It's always an extra point/bonus that both our office is just walking distance from each other. Anyday, we would just call each other up and have lunch together.

We walked into this place which is on the same street she's working at and didn't know what to expect. They previously was another Thai Restaurant but changed to this one, Songkhla Kitchen.

We walked in and there were nobody there. Not one single customer. So, we just sat down and asked if they serve set lunch and stuff. So, from a dish that we choose, we just have to add RM3 to get a drink and a dessert.

The cheapest dish that we could choose for the "set lunch" was RM8. RM8 for just a plain rice with a side dish. Hmmm...


Orange Juice and Iced lemon Tea
He says: Not the real juice, its the one made using syrup.
She says: Bleh.

The appetizer with NO surcharge.
He says: This sambal is NICE. haha. because there is no bad smell to it.
She says: I DON'T like the sambal, because no belacan smell ehh. Belacan is the bomb la. Haha.

Fried Pork with Chilli Paste - RM8.00
He says: Hmm.. The portion is quite big but they could add more taste to it..
She says: It's quite bad. I think if I have and I know the ingredients, I probably can cook up a better dish. 

Fried Pork with Basil - RM8.00
He says: Its just okay..  Not enough spice to it.
She says: Not enough taste of the basil leaves. Not nice.

Fufah Mas Indonesian Food at Tanjung Tokong, Penang

Simple dinner wins us all the time. Sometimes, we do want fancy dinners but most of the time, we could and would settle for simple ones, just like this one. We were at this Malay Food Stall along Tanjung Tokong and this little Indonesian Stall was just right at the corner of this stall.

He saw that the aunty was alone and she wasn't doing anything and there were no business. And all our friends were not ordering from her, so he decided to walked towards her and asked her to make whatever that she would recommend. Since we both have never tried any Indonesian food before. He had completely no idea what he ordered. No idea if it comes with fish or chicken or if its noodles or rice. Well, let's see what we think of it..


This is like foreign language to us. No idea what is what. He ordered Pecel Ayam.
(which you can't see the name of it as it was written below Pecel Lele in pen)

Kitchen area..

Pecal Ayam - RM5
He says: Ayam pecel turns out to be reaaaaallly good. The kakak will immediately deep fry it for you..  and the sambal/curry is super spicy. Love it.. *if you can't take spicy food, do not order or may be order something else* 
She says: The soup and rice is like a typical Malay kind of meal. The fried chicken is finger licking good and it's sooo good that we ordered another fried chicken after we finished our dinner. Oh and the sambal that comes with it is just one of a kind. So spicy and yummy! Of course we ordered another extra rounds of sambal! Two thumbs up! :)
