Food Hunt: Zi Zai Restaurant 自在饭店 @ Paya Terubong, Penang

Inspired by my friend Dave who showed us his blog about heritage food hunt yesterday during dinner, jokingly I told him that I will cover for Paya Terubong area. I guess this will be the first post about food in Paya Terubong area, hopefully not the last. =P

Until end of this month (31st October 2013), they are celebrating their 4th anniversary and promotion of 1 person 1 free drink.

There's 5 of us on that day, so we ordered some of their famous dishes recommended. My friend wanted to try something like kimchi, but was told that need to pre-order. Overall those dishes that we ordered are considered normal with reasonable price. But we felt that the lala served on that day were a bit too small but taste is good. Nevertheless, the sweet and sour chicken dish reminds me of my mum's cooking.
