  • Penang: Sip & Chew Cafe

    Penang: Sip & Chew Cafe

    Front facade, super simple.

    Penang: Sip & Chew Cafe – Sip & Chew Cafe is a very very new restaurant/cafe located on Jalan Masjid Kapitan Keling, or English – Pitt Street. I went there on Christmas Day with Clarice. How I found out about this place is through Instagram where some random people I followed posted about it.

    Here’s me and Clarice.

    With much curiousity, I wandered around the street to find the place. It took me some times to find it and it’s actually located just next to the famous Kuan Yin Teng Temple. It was night time, and surprised to see the restaurant has only 4 tables inside and 2 outside. I assumed it’s a small scale cafe. Nevertheless, we went in and gave it a try despite the little customers.

    The staff was very friendly which worth a little mention. Sip & Chew serves western cuisine and their famous is the sandwiches, but we didn’t order cause I wanted something bigger portion to ease my hungriness.

    Potato salad as starter. Yums.
    Mushroom soup, which is pretty standard, taste like Pizza Hut’s. =D

    We ordered a set of Christmas Set dinner worth of RM24.90 and a Grilled Chicken With BBQ Sauce from the a la carte menu. From starter to main course were delightful, and there’s still room for improvement like the grilled fish with brown sauce was a little bit too salty. Other than that were pretty OK, and the very best part was the Flower Pot Desserts which Clarice and I like the most.

    Grilled Chicken with BBQ Sauce which I like.
    Grilled fish with brown sauce which is rather salty on my taste buds.
    HAPPY POTTED PLANT. Lo and behold, the mighty flower in a pot dessert! What is it? Flower it is, not edible, but the mud, the organics are edible!
    Cute! It’s Oreo grinned into powder that looks like sand and at the bottom, there’s ice cream, and a layer of cake. 

    The owner told us that the menu will be revised again, and I am looking forward for my next visit for the Flower Pot Desserts again, perhaps try some other food too, sandwich maybe?

    Heard that there’s a similar dessert at All Seasons Place, Farlim there, it’s cheese cake instead of ice cream, anyone know about it?

  • Penang: Coffee Chocolate Mille Crepe & Cafe Latte @ Twelve Cups

    Penang: Coffee Chocolate Mille Crepe & Cafe Latte @ Twelve Cups

    Penang: Coffee Chocolate Mille Crepe & Cafe Latte @ Twelve Cups – Penang’s road came into a massive war zone around Gurney Drive area, Air Itam and some other tourists area of Penang! So many other state’s vehicles have flocked into this little island on the weekend causing congestion here and there. After lunch, to prevent myself stuck in the congestion on the way home, I brought mom to Twelve Cups for a little after meal desserts and a cup of coffee to chill a while before getting ourselves into the traffic jam.
    Coffee Chocolate. Not my favourite afterall, found that Hokkaido Milk was better. =D
    A good cup of Caffe Latte.

    Lovely time with mille crepe and coffee at the cafe, but then it’s not lovely when being in the jam. Argh, seriously, something need to be done to help reduce the traffic congestion on this little island, but how?

    Penang: The Twelve Cups – Awesome Mille Crepe

    Entrance from Beach Street.

    Penang: The Twelve Cups – Awesome Mille Crepe – Malacca has a very famous attraction which is the Nadeje Mille Crepe Cafe, people who goes to Malacca will surely visit it for a try. So, mille crepe, the ang mo-style of layer cake is now available in Penang, no need to go until Malacca to try, moreover this one is not bad too!

    The GOOD wall.
    The counter.
    The counter again.

    Located at Beach Street, in a very cool colonial-style building of WhiteAways Arcade is The Twelve Cups Cafe where you can find brew coffee and of course, the Mille Crepe cake. Actually it’s my friend – Huan Sheng who is the designer of the cafe, that introduced to this cafe, and also, the cafe is own by his friend, and that’s why. Haha. Being an interior design student, I am always checking out new cafes and retail outlet to get more inspiration. Well, the interiors is freshy, clean and contemporary, might say is today’s style of cafe.

    Hokkaido Chocolate Crepe, the in-house signature Mille Crepe which I like and rather small.

    Cut the crap and let’s check out the one and only mille crepe Clarice and I ordered. Haha. It’s the Hokkaido Chocolate Crepe (RM10.90), with chocolate layering, the strong aroma of milk melted in my tongue, give me a refreshing sense of sweetness and satisfaction. Yes, it’s nice. However, the portion is a little bit small in my opinion and it should be cut bigger. =) Sky juice is free by the way. XD

    I will come back again for more!
