Danok Waterview Restaurant @Danok, Thailand

Waterview Restaurant is one of the most visited restaurant in Danok. The restaurant is located quite outside from the main town. The road lead to there is very small, so my family bring me to there before sunset.

Waterview 餐廳是Danok其中一個很值得去嘗一嘗的地方。餐廳就坐落在從Kastam Bukit Kayu Hitam 進來泰國的右手處。途中去Waterview餐廳的路又小又狹，建議第一次去的朋友們最好在日落之前就去啊！

When we walk to out sitting place, I got so fascinate by this place love how the decoration in a tradisional concept: kampung style decoration by using the dry coconut leaved to build the rood, low table for us to sit and pillow to support us when we are lazy. Another one great thing about this place is we have a fantastic view by overlooking the lake and hills. We feel so relax even though that day was a hot day and we feel like we are in sauna. 

還沒到門口就已經有服務生站在門口歡迎我們並且帶我們到座位上。一路走來，被這裡美麗的景色吸引得目不轉睛。這裡的裝潢是採用非常原始傳統的裝飾，屋頂是由乾椰葉造的，用餐的桌子也很低，必須坐在地板上（有坐墊）用餐，還有厚厚的枕頭讓我們靠著。吃過晚餐後可以就這麼躺著欣賞湖邊的風景還有享受徐徐吹來的風，很舒適。雖然當天的天氣真的熱得好像在做桑拿一樣，不過這一點也不影響我們的興致。

This shows how big is the restaurant and what I have been and what I have been told, if you do come during dinner or the night session, it would be even nicer as the whole restaurant is light up beautifully but will miss the scenery. I guess, we cannot take one stone kill two birds.

Dinner time, this place is usually very packed!

餐廳很大吧？！朋友告訴說我說晚上的風景更漂亮，不過卻看不見眼前的景色～魚與熊掌不能兼得，這也給了我們可以再來第二次的理由。而且，晚餐時間會超級滿的！想要在晚上來的朋友們，最好打個電話來訂桌子。

Besides that, the way they deliver the foods is quite interesting. They are using BOAT! Normally your dining table is beside the lake. After you order the foods, they will drive the boat and cross over the lake to your dining table. Then, a waiter or waitress will take the foods from the boat to you!

這餐廳除了有著怡人的景色，還有一個更加吸引人的地方，那就是他們送上餐點的方式居然是用船來載？！這就是為什麼所有的用餐地點都會在湖邊的原因吧？他們會將餐點從在湖的另一頭的廚房用小船過來，一來不會影響食物的素質，而來速度夠快！很有趣對不對？

Their famous fried-pork

餐廳推薦的燒豬肉

Crab in claypot with "dong fun"

還有螃蟹冬粉

There is an interesting question! A lot of people always ask me : Where is Danok?

Danok is located at South Thailand. Using North-South Highway, move to north until the end! Right after you pass Kastam Bukit Kayu Hitam to Thailand, the place is Danok. Malaysians need passport or boader pass in order to go to Thailand. 

很多朋友都問我說Danok到底在哪裏？是什麼地方？

Danok就在泰國南部，也就是每年舉辦泰國潑水節的地方。從Malaysia，通過Kastam Bukit Kayu Hitam的地方就是Danok了。馬來西亞公民需要Passport 或者是Border Pass才可以進入泰國。

If you still don't know, I think Google Maps can help you!

如果你還是不清楚那是什麼地方，或許Google Map可以幫到你 ！

Waterview restaurant is a beautiful place to dine at, and you should come here when you are in Dannok for whatever reason it is.

Waterview餐廳除了環境優美之外，食物的品質也達到一定的水準，而且價錢不算貴，喜歡吃泰國餐的朋友可以帶家人或一大群朋友來這裡用餐。

Operation Hour: Lunch & Dinner only

Dinner at Kimberly Street

No idea where to start...so many pictures and food I've taken that day. I skipped my breakfast and lunch again =="
不知道怎么开始写，因为在槟城的第二天，我们Skipped掉了早餐和午餐。其实晚餐时间还拍了蛮多照片的，那就全写晚餐吧～

Yay, relaxing holiday I have. Sleep as late as we can, and wake up naturally ♥
其实在槟城那两天都很享受～想睡的时候才睡，第二天又睡到自然醒♥

We drive to Kimberley Street and decided to have our dinner here.
我们驾车经过了汕头街，看到这里还蛮多吃的，于是决定在这里吃晚餐。

The famous 4 stalls are around Kedai Sin Guat Keong, located at 86 Kimberly Street. They all start their business at 6pm except the Char Koay Teow, ealier at 5:30pm. The 4 stalls are 

在汕头街，有4个档口是非常非常出名的。所有档口大概在6点开始营业，除了待会儿介绍的炒粿条，他在5点半就开始开档了哦～出名的档口就是这以下4个:

(i) Char Koay Teow(炒粿条)– Stall outside Kedai Kopi Sin Guat Keong 
(ii) Koay Chiap(鸭肉粿汁) - opposite Kedai Kopi Sin Guat Keong 
(iii) Koay Teow Th’ng (粿條湯)- on the right of Si Ko Th'ng(Almond tea) stall 
(iv) Si Ko Th’ng(四果汤) & Heng Jin Teh (杏仁茶) or Almond tea - on the right of Char Koay Teow stall

Our 1st try is Char Koay Teow:

            第一档尝试的就是炒粿条：

Char Keoy Teow: RM3.70 (with egg) / RM3.00 (without egg)

I think this Char Keoy Teow is the best Char Keoy Teow in Penang. Fried flat noodles with prawns, slices of pork sausage, egg and cockles. It can be spicy, so just request to adjust how spicy you like it. (This is non-halal. Muslims should beware of this)

这个应该是我在槟城吃过最好吃的炒粿条了。粿条配上虾子，煮肉片，鸡蛋和我们所谓的屎蛤。还可以向老板要求加辣或者

是不辣～～但是个人认为少许的辣是不错的～呵呵～因为炒粿条里有猪肉，所以穆斯林的朋友

可能需要回避哦～

2. Fried Cake

曼煎糕

Fried Cake with sweet corn (RM 0.70) , without sweet corn (RM0.80)

The pancake is just......so so...The pancake is very thin, but the retraction is full. Full of peanut and sweet corn as you can see from the image ♥

曼煎糕没有想象中那么好吃（个人比较喜欢皮厚厚的曼煎糕）～这里的曼煎糕皮薄，但是馅料满满的！满满的花生米和甜玉米，就如图中一样～♥

3.Ah Hai's Koay Teow.

阿海粿条汤

Ah Hoi Kway Teow + Egg RM4.00

Further up of the road, we found Ah Hai's Kway Teow stall which situated at the busy intersection of Cintra & Kimberley Street. Slightly different from the common fish ball Kway Teow found in Penang or KL. Ah Hai's Kway Teow id freshly cooked with fish cake, pork slices, pork liver, minced pork and fish balls.  Round off the piping off the piping hot dish with poached egg. Patrons can choose from yellow noodles, mee hun, instant noodle or more. Prices range from RM 2.80 ~RM4.00

路口再往前一点，就可以看到阿海粿条汤的档口。阿海的粿条汤和槟城还有KL吃的粿条汤有一点点不一样。他们家的粿条汤里有鱼饼，猪肉碎，猪肝，猪肉还有鱼丸。送上来的时候还是新鲜热辣的呢！！好好吃！！象平时一样，有好几种面条供食客选择：黄面，快熟面等等。价钱大概是RM2.80~RM4.00

4. Famous Soya and 苋仔糕

Soya without jelly (RM1.30)

Soya with Jelly (RM1.30)

苋仔糕 RM2.20

I'm still wondering the soya with jelly and without jelly is having the same price :p

The soya is smooth, just like drinking water but full of taste of soya.Yummm~~ The uncle is selling 苋仔糕at the same time. We never see this before so we decided to try and now, I still don't know what it is and the ingredient. It tasteless but it totally different when we put it some sauce given. 

到现在我还是很好奇怎么有凉粉和没有凉粉的豆奶都是一样的价钱的？豆奶很顺滑，就和我们喝的白开水没有什么分别，只不过这白开水有着浓浓的豆奶味。看到档口同时也卖着苋仔糕，由于好奇心作祟，所以就买了一碗试试看。吃完后，还是不懂这是用什么做的～吃起来一点味道都没有，不过调味酱的味道很不错 :p

After we had our dinner, we decided to enjoy the night view in Penang.

吃过晚餐之后，就决定驾车在槟城随便绕一绕看看夜景。

Have a good day. Good night and sleep tight~

美好的一天～大家晚安咯～～

A taste of Teksen @George Town

I'm back !! Not longer here I think, really hope I can have more time spend on my blogger. I think my blogger have been ignore since I start my course :(
我回来了。不过应该不会留在这里太久，实在是有太多功课要赶！很佩服那些可以兼顾到的人啊！怎么我就是做不到呢？

We went to Penang on February but now just have time to share it, Oh!! Now already is the end of May :(
2月的槟城之旅到现在才有时间写，现在几月了？5月都快结束啦！！！

We walk around Chulia Hotel and try to looking for some food. Damn, we skip our lunch that's why we are so thirsty and hungry, especially during rainy day. Luckily we found Teksen, we saw pretty much of people dine in here, so we decided to have our dinner over here.
言归正传，我们跳过了午餐没吃（因为忙着拍酒店的照片哇！哈哈哈）所以晚餐时间还没到，肚子就玩起了交响乐啊。傍晚下着毛毛雨，又不知道附近有什么东西吃，所以只好再附近找找随便吃就好。无意中找到了这间。因为看到很多人吃，所以就抱着好奇心进去试试看了。

Crowded inside. Luckily, managed to find an empty table. Table turnovers were quick here. The environment here was nice, airy, bright and clean.

里面真的好满！！可以形容为“高朋满座”啊！幸好服务员帮我们找到了空桌子，基本上两个人的座位不难找。令我很满意的是，这里虽然人很多， 但是环境很干净明亮，还狠通风。

It did not disappoint. Much more than a tourist attraction, it is always a good sign when a restaurant appears to be full of locals. Tek Sen is a great place for people who appreciate a locals experience with authetic local food, friendly service and excellent value. Let's see what dishes we order?
果然跟着人潮走是没错的。 虽然说这里像是游客会来的地方（外国人占了20%吧？！）如果想吃当地菜的话， 这里将会是一个很好的选择。食物一级棒，服务员很亲切，还有一点的就是，虽然这里用餐的游客占了几乎一半，但是价格并没有因为这样而提高。来看看我们点了什么吧 :)

My favourite, bitterground with salted egg. The bitteground was fried with salted egg, and it become not so bitter. Just can't get enough of this.
我的最爱！苦瓜炒咸蛋。 苦瓜浸过盐水过苦之后再和咸蛋炒在一起，原本的苦涩味变淡了，而且还不时品尝到咸蛋味。好想再吃哦！

Three Emperor Egg (RM8)

This slightly dish is made from three different eggs : Chicken Egg, Salted Duck Egg and Century Eggs. Three of type of this eggs are used together in cooking which make this steam egg with delicious three different egg tastes along it. Its been my favorite since i m an egg lover . The custard of this three emperor egg is smooth , velvety and bouncy at the same time. Signature dish in Teksen Restaurant, they serve delicious three emperor egg.

三皇蛋。顾名思义，三皇蛋是由3种不同的蛋蒸在一起：鸡蛋，咸鸭蛋和皮蛋。三种不同的蛋类放在一起蒸熟，有种难以形容的美味。自从在KL吃过一次三皇蛋后就从此爱上了鸡蛋。三皇蛋蒸得刚刚好，很滑，不会老。这可是他们家得招牌哦！

Deep Fried Chicken with Sour Palm Sauce Topping (M: RM14)

As the title mentioned it was fried chicken with sour palm sauce topping, my hubby boy loves it so much and he can finish it all just eaten by him. Must try this out!!

梅子鸡。如标题，鸡肉炸过之后再用梅子酱淋上翻炒，带有一点点的辣！真的是让人又爱又恨啊！！

Our beverage. Hubby boy ordered a Michael Jackson which is Mixed Soya Milk with grass jelly (RM2.00) *silly name* and the right handside was homemade crysanthemum tea(RM 1.50)

我们的饮料。左边那杯是Michael Jackson,其实是豆浆参仙草，不过这个名字真的是太好记了！而我的是热乎乎的菊花茶，雨后的傍晚来一杯这个最好了。

This is menu of Teksen Restaurant, you guys can have a quick look.

这个就是德成的菜单， 大家可以看看。

Overall, This place is fantastic. Nice, big, airy restaurant mainly frequented by locals. The food was excellent. Everything was perfectly cooked with delicious flavours. Our meal came to about RM50, which considering the quality is really good value. Seriously, if you like Chinese food you have to eat here. I can't wait to go back!!

总的来说，这饭店实在是太让人难以忘记了。餐厅够大，够通风，而且是当地人爱吃的！食物很棒，基本上也没有什么地方可以挑剔的！就连超级龟毛的男友也对他们赞不绝口啊，说如果再来penang的话，一定会旧地重游。

Christmas Night in Geographer Cafe

I was attracted by the Bistro decorations many years ago, and listed No.1 in my Most Favorite Bistro after this Christmas Dinner It's become a must visit place for me when I been Malacca.
If you have no idea what is Geographer Cafe then you must be KIDDING ME!!!! How can you not know about it!!!!
其实早在好多年前就已经被地理学家餐馆给吸引，无奈小时候还没有那个经济能力去享受。可现在不同了，自从我在圣诞节当天去过以后，我想我以后只要到马六甲走走，应该都会再来这间餐馆享受下午茶吧！如果你说你没听过地理学家餐厅的话，那你一定是在开玩笑！夏日的么么茶听过吧？这里可是他们其中一个取景的地方哦。

The Geographer has been on Jonker Street for years, and sits inside a beautiful heritage house. The classic style of the shoplot has been renovated, maintaining the charm while funking up the decor. 
地理学家餐厅在坐落鸡厂街已经好多年了，除了夏日的么么茶，他那独特的遗产老房建筑也是他们闻名的原因之一。以前那种经典的店屋已经逐渐装修成了现代时髦的餐厅，然而他们却依然保持着以前的文化以及建筑特色。有机会到马六甲走走的话，不妨进去看看。

I found this promotion brochure when I surfing internet, and call for reservation without considering!! So Crazy and so cheap. How can we stand it?
在网络上“潜水”的时候无意中发现了他们的圣诞优惠广告，我二话不说就立刻打电话去预订了位子。那么便宜那么超值！怎么可以错过呢？

We reached there by 7pm and all the waitress are ready to serve us. My first impressions were one of adoration for this stylish, comfy little place, and I was even more thrilled to see their promise of “no MSG” to ensure that our meals were naturally tasty. 
我们很准时地7点就到那里报到，而那里的服务生似乎早就已经做好了准备，一念我这很难念的名字: Saimnicy ,他们就知道我们订了2个人的位子，并把我们带到座位上（他们是不是早就把预定名单背起来了？）进来的第一印象就是很舒适，很有圣诞气氛。不过让我更期待的是他们一直强调“食物无味精并依然可口”的承诺。

As the promotion brochure written, they serve red wine/white wine, salad, mushroom soup,main course, dessert and beverage.
依照他们优惠广告中的菜单，红酒/白酒，沙拉，蘑菇汤，主菜，甜点以及饭后饮料，一样都不少。

White wine and Red Wine
白酒和红酒

Cream of Mushroom Soup served with Crouton Bread

Who doesn't like mushroom soup?!!! Taste a lil bit with other mushroom soup I ever tried.It doesn't taste like canned mushroom soup we  bought from super market but it taste like homemade mushroom soup.
有谁不爱蘑菇汤呢？他们的蘑菇汤喝起来味道有点不一样，喝得出来绝对不是我们平时在商场里买的罐头蘑菇汤，味道更像是熬出来的，喝起来真的很不错。

Fresh Garden Sald with Olive Oil

Grilled Chicken Combo

Here's a sneak peek at Christmas & New Year special: Grilled Chicken Combo. Available ala-carte as well as with their special Christmas and New Year set menu. Food eventually made its way to us, and first impressions were so brilliant. The food, while neatly prepared, had real charm.
这就是他们的圣诞以及新年优惠的主菜，即使在特别节日不要Dinner Set,也是可以点单座的。主菜一到就吸引了我们，真的好大一份，还一度担心自己吃不完呢。

Christmas Fruit Cake

We are so full after finish the main course, and ask the waitress serve the Fruit Cake after 10mins. And they really serve the fruit cake after while, such a good service!! *give them a claps*

吃过主菜之后就觉得肚子再也装不下甜点了，所以有吩咐了服务员在10分钟后才上甜点。出乎意料地，他们还真的是在10分钟后准时送上。*为他们良好的服务态度鼓掌吧*

Lastly, they will ask you: Do you prefer coffee or tea, or me? *just kidding* And we choose coffee :p
上过甜点后，服务生会再来问：你要咖啡还是要茶？
