Santorini Cafe in Penang! We went to Santorini after having desserts at China House few months ago. I'm now different look with the following photos that I'm gonna post. Coz the photos were taken like back in 4 months ago. Originally, we wanted to have our dinner at Behind 50 but unfortunately, they were fully booked by customers. So, we changed our plan to have dined in at Santorini.
This was my first time for having dinner at there. This restaurant has downstairs and upstairs. Downstairs were filled with customers so we went upstairs. It was like a Tatami room without any chairs. So, if you are bringing your parents to there, you better dine downstairs for convenience. The room was filled with dimmed lights. Every pic that we had taken was so dark and blur.
Let's get in the topic! Here are some of the pictures:
 |
| Since it was such a long period ago, I had forgotten the name of the dishes. Really Sorry! haha It was, I think was Carbonara Spaghetti with a grilled fish. This was great in taste. Very rich in carbonara and a bit of milk. It was in a really big portion. |
 |
| This was marinara seafood spaghetti, RM 10.90. Erm, I think the carbonara one was better. So, you got what I meant? Haha! |
 |
| This was ordered by me. It was called Pineapple Fried Fish if I'm not mistaken. I didn't think it had anything special. It was just a piece of pineapple with cheese on the top of the fish. haha! Plus, the fish has a little bad smell. Not good. |
 |
| This was santorini coffee chicken chop which cost RM 12.90. This was great but I could not taste much of the coffee flavor. Whatever, as long as it was better than mine! |
 |
| Oat Chicken Chop -RM 10.90, this was nice too. But not the best that I ever ate. The oat was just on the top of the chicken chop. It didn't mix with the chicken before it was fried. |
 |
| Our table. 5 of the main dishes. I recommend you guys to order the carbonara and the coffee chicken chop. |
 |
| I could not wait to have a bite of my dish! So, I bit my plate! Haha with my 4th sis. |
 |
| 4 of us. Room was just filled by us with nobody else. We could act in free-style! |

China House in Penang! Hello guys, welcome to my blog again! Nowadays, Penang is considered as one of the most treasure heritage places in Malaysia. China House is one of the famous heritage restaurant and cafe in this town. So, today I'm gonna blog about China House!
China House is a restaurant which serves a modern western food and other food and drinks. It is also a gallery or theater for artistic people. I'm gonna talk about the food and drinks instead of the art, gallery and theater parts.
Actually, I had been staring at this restaurant every time I passed by since Semester 3. I was curious of what this shop was. Coz its signboard is grey in colour and the design doesn't really look like a normal restaurant. Haha! To find out the answer, I started to search for this shop and went for a try.
I went to there in few months ago, so these pictures below are captured for quite a long time. Alright, let check it out! (Coz my memory card is limited so I forgot the names of the food but I still remember their taste!)
 |
| From the left, me, my 4th sis namely Gwen and my 3rd sis called Christine! We took a crazy selca on car but why was Christine acting normal? I had no idea on it! Keke!!! |
 |
| This cake was extremely sweet for me. On the top of this cake, there were some mix fruits. And the cake was taste like a normal one coz the fruit on the top made my tongue couldn't taste the flavor of the cake! |
 |
| This had a really special flavor. Maybe it was the fruit, I think it was the passion fruit. I like this but same as the above one, the cake was like a normal one. Nothing special for the cake. |
 |
| I remembered that I liked the top cream of this cake. It was really creamy and rich in flavor. But, the cake on the bottom part was just so so for me. No offend! |
 |
| I think this was the Tiramisu! Haha! It was their famous dessert. They said that they can sell out 5 whole tiramisu in every Sunday. But this was the best dessert in this restaurant. SO, I recommend you guys to just order this. So that you guys won't waste your money on those not so good desserts. This cake had a massive sense of wine and the cream and the cake were mix well together! You should have a try!!! |
 |
| This was in chocolate flavor apparently. I still remembered that I just craved for the topping, chocolate cream! Haha! Very moisture for the topping cream. |
 |
| My drink of that day. I think it was cappucino. If i'm not mistaken! Haha! This was good. I suggest you guys to order one coffee to just clear your taste buds so that you can taste every single cake clearly. I love the drawing on my drink. A simply love shape would make my day! |
 |
| After eating our dessert, we had a photo-shooting session. The dimmed light made a feel of LOMO so called old school style. |
 |
| Sorry Christine, my little victory hand sign blocked your pretty face off! Haha! The background were so pretty in its own old school way! |
 |
| This was their decoration in the dining room at the back. Bookshelves against the wall and a tiny tree. It made it kinda LOMO surrounding. |
 |
| After you dining, you should go to the back of this CHina House. If you see the toilet on your left hand side, straight to step forward and you will see this scene. It's a good place for photo-shooting. This was captured by me! |
 |
| I found a unique door so I decided to have a pic as memorial. |
To close this topic, I think I need to actually speak the truth about this restaurant. The cakes are too dry for me personally and so do my sisters. They are like too dry until hurt my taste buds. A little bit of exaggeration. But I think you better go for Secret Recipe. In additional, the cakes are really not affordable and are very expensive. 5 of us ordered 5 pieces of cakes cost us more than RM80! We were angry at that time! The expensiveness was one of the reasons that made us angry. Other standing point was the service was so so bad! The waiters and waitress were bad in attitude. They always showed a black face or impatient face. Maybe they think they are too famous so no need to focus on customer service. I don't like it! A warm remind, you better call them for reservation if you want to have a dinner at there coz they are too famous as I said before so there will be not enough place to fill you. In my opinion, I think eating is one of the best things ever, but I don't think that I will enjoy eating in a place like China House which bad in Service. I'd rather go for Light House! I hope that they can really improve themselves.

So, see you next time. Will be uploading very soon!
Alright, I know that I have such a long time didn't blog any topic. Now, here's the topic I'm gonna blog about. It's all about my 4th sis's namely Gwendolyn's birthday. I'm not gonna emphasize her year of birth here, or else, she's gonna take my soul out of my body! Haha! Give you a little clue, she's older than me for few years. Haha! That's it! Enough! Let's start!
I still remembered it was on Tuesday in date of 23th October. I decided to make her Sushi in celebration of her birthday. So, I woke up earlier and went to Jusco for grocery. My 3rd and 4th sis accompanied me as they didn't have any important activities in the morning. I was like walking around all the areas in Jusco in order to seek my ingredients. I bought a trolley of things like Japanese rice, Teppanyaki chicken, ice-cream and some of my favourite junk food. All of those added together cost me almost RM100. OMG! Couldn't believe that I had the potential to be a shopaholic in term of grocery or housewife. I arrived there at 10.45a.m. and went back home after 12pm. I felt exhausted. After that, I drived my 4th sis to college and waited her for around 2 hours. Back in home at 5pm. Started doing my preparation for sushi rolls. All ingredients were done well. I started to roll my Sushi. And I finished it in 5 hours. My back was very pain. Keke! Like a Grandma! Following are the pics of that day.
 |
| When I was making my huge Sushi Rolls! I had no idea why were they so huge like a big cobra! haha |
 |
| Let's get the party started! We celebrated it in our lovely country style living room! Haha Bcoz my idol is Taylor Swift! We've got a plate of fruit, LohBah, Chicken Fingers not the real one, my Sammy-made Sushi rolls and Spaghetti in flavor of Seafood tomatoes sauce with cheese. Drooling? And so do I! |
|
 |
| The Spaghetti made by my 2nd sis, she's an expert in doing this kind of complex recipe! Haha! Here got cheesy hotdog and some cheese powder on it. Looked nice, smelled nice and of course the most important was it tasted really delicious! |
 |
| This is Loh Bak! We bought it from market. It's typically a kind of food from HokChiew. It's wrapped with mix meat with some other secret ingredients that I don't know. Then make it like a Sushi roll then fried it. Nice! |
 |
| This is the Chicken Fingers from a brand. Our Tang family like it all the time! Simply but taste extremely mouth-watering. |
 |
| Fruit plate including pitaya and kiwi prepared by 3rd sis! Looked colouful and fresh! |
 |
| This is the eggy waffle from the shop that I've blogged last month. Sweet Heaven's significant dessert. Bought by 3rd sis's bf, Jackson! Taste good coz we've put it in oven for 15mins and it was so crunchy! |
|
 |
| My proudly masterpiece of the day! Sushi Rolls with Tuna mayonnaise, cucumber, carrot, crab meat and cheese on the top! I received much compliments on that day which made me flied to the cloud nine! |
 |
| Focus on the Sushi rolls. Gwen was busy with calling our eldest sis to come as soon as a rocket! |
 |
| We couldn't wait! So, we had to start our bites on the warmest food on the planet with the kids' plastic forks! |
 |
| 2nd sis was presenting her Spaghetti to Gwen! |
 |
| 3rd sis was passing her fruit plate to the party girl! |
 |
| Jackson did it as well! Eggy waffles! |
 |
| I was the most pitiful one coz I finished it using nearly 5 hours! But by seeing every one smiling faces, it made my night! haha! |
 |
| Her birthday cake bought from Jenny's cake house in the Pulau Tikus which near the market. I had given some of my ideas in designing this graceful cake! |
 |
| 5 pieces of flower! Haha! Counted from the left: my eldest sis, 2nd sis, 4th, 3rd one and me! Posed like Miss World! |
