Mixed Pork Soup & Pork Noodles~ Hon Kei, Kampung Malabar, Georgetown

November 2016. From a roadside stall, expanded and move to a large premises just few doors away. Hon Kei has been selling pork porridge for decades. Now their new premises occupied 3 shop-lots in Kampung Malabar. Besides pork porridge, there are mixed pork soup with noodle or rice, and the choice the pork parts that you prefer. As a fan-tong (rice lover), I go for the yam rice with salted veggie mixed pork soup (with minced pork and steaky). Other 2 friends also have the same thing as me except the "liao" (choice of meat for the soup) is different. He alone goes for pork noodle with thick vermicelli noodle. Beside salted veggie soup, the other choice of soup is bitter gourd mixed pork soup. The place is full house since we were there at lunch hours. However we were lucky today, not only we get a parking in front of the shop, also able get a table for 4 without waiting. Food served pretty fast after order placed cuz they have many staffs! It's always great to meet up friends for delicious meal and short catch-up whenever we back to Penang. 







Blue Mountain Coffee with harbour view~ Full of Beans, Straits Quay

November 2016. Back to Penang again for the weekend! Attended a gang member's wedding and have a short yet happy gather-together gang's reunion. Also catch up with a good friend before leaving Penang today. After had Hokkien Mee as breakfast at Tanjung Bungah Market, we head to Straits Quay for coffee. My coffee of the day is Blue Mountain coffee, served with almond biscotti. Specialized in hand crafted coffee with unplugged brewing methods such as Syphon, Hand Drip, Ice Drip, Aero Press and Hand Presso, Full of beans' coffee beans are imported from American, African, Asian & Oceania region. Love their outdoor seating which is facing the seafront marina and pier. Nothing more leisure than having a cup of great coffee, looking at the seafront with drizzling weather, while the men were talking.
