Daorae BBQ Korean Restaurant in Bayan Baru Penang

Daorae is one of my favorite Korean restaurant in Penang especially at Bayan Baru area. You can't find any other better Korean restaurants at this area. When I very miss Korean food, I will come to this place.

Food / Environment / Overall - 8/10

People say it is expensive here and I think it is normal here. Can you get a very nice and also cheap Korean food in Malaysia? It is unlikely also right.

If there is really a money concern, you can order one dish only like what I did that day and they will give you a lot of side dishes. You can request more for those side dishes which is come with free. :) So it is not that expensive, if you really want to save!

The BBQ is not bad too, it is just that I don't order at that time. I will post more food photos when I come here again.

Bravo Italiana Food in Bayan Baru Penang

I think this restaurant used to be nice but somehow when I went there few weeks ago, the food is not up to the standard. Perhaps due to they're also lacking of workers as you can see from the picture below.

Food - 6/10

Soup of the day is not bad but that is too normal. Steak is also nothing special and spaghetti is overcooked and dessert is also so so. Anyway, I"m not enjoying the food here.

Environment - 7/10

Environment is probably can be considered good and romantic. But if the food is not good, let's don't talk about the environment.

Overall I will rate 6/10, I do not recommend to have dinner or lunch here. It is kind of wasting money because home cook could be better than it.

Best Char Kway Teow in Penang - Kampung Jawa

I think this is the best Char Kway Teow in Penang, which is located in Kampung Jawa. Although the most famous one of course is at "Lorong Selamat" but I find it sucks and expensive. Somehow it is no longer as good as it used to be. So, the fried Kway Teow at "Lorong Selamat" definitely not worth it and some more you could wait for hours.

The coffee shop name is called "WaHong Cafe" which is located at "Solok Kampung Jawa 6" as shown in above picture. It opens pretty early, I think even before 6 am. So every time when I have very early morning meeting, I come here for breakfast. It opens until noon too for lunch.

Food (Char Kway Teow) -  8/10 

It comes with 2 big prawns but the taste of the prawns is better than the one in lorong selamat fried kway teow and it also cheaper in terms of the price. One very unique about this Char Kway Teow is, when the serving comes, it is like one kind one. The kway teow is only half or sometime just one quarter of the plate as shown in the picture below. I like to call this "k ying" (Cantonse slang refes to odd looking shape) char kway teow.

Drink - 7/10

The drink is not bad, better than a lot of coffee shop in Penang. As usual, I enjoy my "Teh Si" very much.

Summary

I can only say "Must try Char Kway Teow" if you come to Penang. :)
