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.

Their signature dishes

Fish meat & tofu in claypot, RM18

Kang kong, RM8

Original lala, RM8

Sweet & sour chicken, RM10

Front view at night

Our bill add up to RM49

Around 7pm, we drive to Four Seasons Resort which is just few kilometres away. The room rate for a standard room starts from RM1800... Well, we went in, greeted warmly by the staffs and continue our camwhoring until 7.40pm... ^_^

After that, we drove down to Petronas Quay for dinner. Walk around and settled our dinner in Tapas.

Comments from my friend is that the mushroom soup is very nice. But the other soup... (forgotten the special name) is ... (speechless). Look at the photo below, a picture describe a thousand words. Patrick says it is worst than drinking bitter tea. As for Kean Wei, he says that after the ice melted, it taste not bad. To know how it taste, go try it out. ^_^
