happy easter

Carrot cake trial run#1. Soft and moist and bursting with raisins minus the nuts. Cheese frosting is quite good too.

duckrice@ carnavon st

The last time we were here was about 1 year ago. we were too hungry, we forgot to take photos

I consider this one of the best duck rice shops in penang.

why you ask?

well, other places i go to because of the rice or chilli sauce (yes, weird i know..)

but this place, its all about the duck.

delicious crispy roast duck.

The duck here is always excellent. The meat is very juicy, tender and full of flavor.

There was actually very little fat and the skin was nice and crispy

Same goes for bbq-pork, char siew.

Both taste great even without the chilli sauce.

We took a plate for 2 and its was huge.

We had to wait quite a while as it was lunch time and they were serving nonstop.

Lucky we even got a table.The food was worth the wait.

oh yea.. the complimentary soup.

Elpea felt that the sauce for the charsiew was a bit too sweet though.

okaaay... it was but i still liked it :-)

I give it 5/5.

Roast chicken western style

The king and princes love it. Asked me to make this again next week.

tension...all hopes on me?

Update:
I will drop plan A to bake cotton cheesecake...the outcome is so volatile. Now will go for plan B



As we strolled down the aisle at Tesco looking at some baking ingredients ....

E : all hopes on you dear to bake "THE CAKE".
Me: you are giving me stress...that's why i got indigestion :p
E: the cake.... hehehehe (smiling)
Me: hiyah.... there's always King's bakery to back me up

I  hope it all goes well. All is well ...all is well. Going to do another pre run today.

Our dinner

We had this yesterday for dinner after rejecting d hosp food. Not sure how many are aware that Kfc does not serve coke... They serve pepsi... Or those drinks manufactured by Permanis.

I opted for d snack plate without d drink n got the coke from Happy mart. Infact it is cheaper ; ) and I got a drink that was not diluted with ice.

Let's take a vote A or B

Okay folks... let's take a vote today. Which would you go for? A or B?

Set A - Vegetarian Meatballs & Stir Fried Vege with Porridge

Set B - Gardenia Butterscotch Bread

I go for B and I have been eating that for breakfast, lunch and dinner for the past 2 days. After being served meal A on day 1, I have told them not to send any breakfast, lunch or dinner to our room. Btw, I am having a retreat @ a 5 star hospital (nicely put).

Everyday I see food being wasted. Sad. Come on ppl, if you dont like the food (who would?) please stop taking and waste the food later. It is a sin... there are so many homeless and poor who are without food.

The hospital caterer is also another one. Dont you folks do survey and see what people like to eat? Vegetarian does not mean bad food. Hmmm maybe I should just go snap some pics of the food thrown away or left uneaten (after a few mouths) and send them to the hosp admin. Yes... I shall go do that.

Recipe book

Found this book among my other stuffs. Bought this book many years back when all that I cooked was instant noodles. I had a vision then to be an aspired cook for my husband - that lucky guy ; p
