Let's Drink Like a Fish!


Where else can you get a glass of beer at 50 cents but in Siem Reap.  Almost every pubs and restaurants in Siem Reap are selling their local draft beers (Angkor and Cambodia Beer) at this ridiculously low price.  Certainly a haven for people who can drink like a fish.  In fact the local beers are usually the cheapest beverages you can find in their menus...(yes, it is even cheaper than a bottle of mineral water). 

USD 10.00 is more than enough to get you drunk.  CHEERS!

My favourite nyonyas in Penang...








There are plenty of Nyonya restaurants in Penang but 2 restaurants that stand out and are at the league of their own are Seri Batik Nyonya Restaurant at New World Park and Nyonya Breeze Desire at Straits Quay.

The food there has never failed to impress me eventhough I have been there countless times.  

SERI BATIK - Dishes I would recommend are Lor Bak, Assam Pedas Fish, Pineapple Curry with Prawn, Joo Hu Char and Black Pork Chop.

NYONYA BREEZE DESIRE - Dishes worth mentioning are Potato Leaves in Coconut Milk, Sambal Petai Udang, Sambal Udang Goreng, Too Tor Thng and Nyonya Curry Chicken.

Reservation required especially on weekends.
