Penang Receipe at 1Utama

A not so long time ago in a galaxy far away nearer than you think, (Milky way galaxy) … okay cut that Star Wars crap. Sarven might get mad at me for this =P. But I think he loves alcohol more than Star Wars now! TEE HEEE! If you so happen to be in 1Utama (which so happens that many people end up in), do make it a point to visit “Penang Receipe”. It’s not a big and established joint so don’t bring your girlfriend along especially on your first date if you are afraid of being called EL-CHEAPO. If you’re with your friends, no need to worry. Everyone is an EL-CHEAPO then! Eh, the food isn’t that cheap too anyhow!

So what on earth is this? If you guessed Nasi Lemak, you are not Chinese enough! If you guessed Chicken Rice, you are not Malay enough! If you guessed Lemon Chicken Rice… you cheater! So how does the Lemon Chicken Rice taste? It was nice! But maybe that opinion is biased as I was hungry when I ate it. The lemon juice wasn’t too sour nor sweet. The chicken… tasted like chicken. You can’t expect chicken to taste like pork can’t you? (I would very much like it). The rice was fine. It was just normal white rice.
I give the Lemon Chicken Rice a 3/5. It costs RM 7.90 per serving by the way.

Yam cakes! Don’t you love yam cakes? If you don’t… LIKE THEM! It’s okay if you don’t like Penang Receipe’s Yam Cake. They seem to have too much flour in the ingredients. You are eating more flour than Yam! I strongly discourage having the Yam Cake at Penang Receipe. Try it somewhere else. Preferably hawker stalls =P.
It costs RM 6.90 and I give it a 2/5.

This is a…. bowl of Kuey Teow Soup. There are servings of fishballs, fishcakes, chicken and whatever you see inside! It was edible. But I guess there is nothing to shout about! It is just a more expensive bowl of Kuey Teow Soup you can get outside! It costs RM 6.90.
I give it a 2/5

It’s quite hard to find good yam cakes. Most of them like you said..all made of flour.
my mom make the best yam cakes lah. end. XD
Personally, I find the yam cake in one of the stall @ SS19 is nice. Been eating for the past 10++ years. The aunty is very popular at the area.
Perhaps you could furnish more info regarding the said stall in SS19 =)
Errrmmm, do you know the row of stall opposite 99 speedmart? one of the corner shop is a indian shop. the stall is located at the other end of the shop
It’s next to an optometrist (The Indian shop JYx is referring to is Sri Melur SS19). If you want to check it out, go in the morning. It’s usually sold out by lunch time.
I personally find the nasi lemak better than the yam cake =D
Wah… Wei Ling also frequent customer huh? Haha! Yeah! The nasi lemak there is the best. And the most popular meat is call “wild boar/pig meat”
I forgot that Wei Ling reads this blog.. hahaha xD
LOLLLL @ Chris’s subtle bullet. *thumbs up max*
I’ve got nothing to say re my inactivity but I do check out the site everyday =d
Oh, hi xD
the ‘wai sek gai’ at SS2, there’s a lok lok stall there which serves really good yam cake, i personally think.
