Ten Ichi November Promotions

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Ten Ichi November Promotions

It’s November. So… What are the offers this month? How I wish the RM9.90 offer is still available this month but too bad, only one RM9.90 promo.

This is RM9.90, Deep Fried Salmon Belly with Rice. Personally, I didn’t really like this dish hehehe… Why? It’s easy, deep fried ;p it’s a bit too oily for me when I had it since I had just recovered from a bout of diarrhoea few days ago before eating this.

Next, there’s Kaizeki Sets this month also.

The first set is Kaizeki Set A, original price is RM42 but now you can get it at RM28.90. If you love salmon, you should have this. The salmon is braised with special chef’s sauce. I love it!


Here are the side dishes, Stir Fried Japanese Kimchi and Crab Roll Salad. I like both of them.


More side dishes, Beancurd in Light Ankake Brooth and fruits. Of course you will get miso soup and rice in this set as well. Again, share this set with your friends. So that you can try another set of Kaizeki set too.

The next Kaizeki set is Kaizeki Set B. original price is RM56 but now you can get it at RM36.90

Left: I give two thumbs up to this set! I LOVE them!! See so many type of sushi? Yummy, yum, yum… This kind is the modern type of sushi. Very colourful right? It tasted so tasty too! Give me this again anytime!
Right: Ebi Salad is also very tasty! *SLURP* There’s actually pasta in there with the fish roes WOW! Luxurious food I tell you.


I can’t help it, NAH! Another upclose photo of the sushi ;p

Besidses that, they also come with miso soup, fruit, and Beancurd in Light Ankake Brooth.

Lastly, I recommended this also.

Aburi Salmon Maki, RM18.90. My comment will be I LOVE IT! That’s all I can say. *SLURP*

By the way, it’s not possible to eat the sushi in one go. They are too big unless you have a very big mouth hahaha…

Order them all, they are available everyday. Go with a group of friends and split the cost. Top up RM2 for each of you to get free flow of high quality green tea. Enjoy your meal!

Vogue Cafe

Posted on By sweet surrender 7 Comments on Vogue Cafe

I’m going to stop updating about my Penang trip for today ;p Will resume tomorrow. Haven’t reach 50% yet! Need to update something locally and outdated, if put there too long later I forget.


I know… I know… Almost everyone in the blogsphere went there already, summore some actually treat there like a home already hahaha… I’m super duper slow and late. It’s too out of the way for me and I’m more of a lone ranger and rather anti-social lately. I seldom go out to mix around, not that I like to do that last time, depending on my mood. Most of the time, I prefer to face the computer playing games after busying rather than going out, it makes me even more tired. A sign of growing old? ;p


I went there for lunch before I catch my flight that night to Penang. Everyone is saying good things about it. I will also say good things about it. Everything is quite good except I waited for almost 1 hour for my food but I’m not rushing to go anywhere so I don’t really mind. It was almost full house also. Good thing the food came out delicious else I will not be happy. Price wise it’s very reasonable and it’s worth it, they are not stingy with their ingredients. However, I just feel there’s something missing but I don’t know what. Don’t care about it, it’s not my business anyway.


Left: Mango Tango(RM5.90), highly recommended! Those are real mango, it’s not preserved, fresh mango, lots of them!
Right: Watermelon ice blended(RM4.90).


Stewed pork leg(RM5.90), it smelt so nice! The gravy was thick! Serve to you pipping hot. The stewed pork portion is quite big and I can assure you that that one serving of rice won’t be enough for you to finish the pot of stewed pork.


Butter chicken(RM5.90), I tried butter chicken from many places and they got nothing to rave but this one I give it two thumbs up! OH MY! Damn thick! I dipped it into the soy sauce+chili, it was heavenly. Honestly, I don’t really like to order dish like this which the rice is served with something on the same plate if I have a choice. They did a good job of seperating it, usually people will just use the same plate to serve it.

Wondering where is the location? You know 4 1/2 mile? Where 688 located? It’s at that commercial centre. The next door is a pet shop. Opposite is Unaco.

Penang Day 3 – Part 2: Burmese Buddhist Temple

Posted on By sweet surrender 8 Comments on Penang Day 3 – Part 2: Burmese Buddhist Temple

Extremely busy this week!! -.-”

After visiting Thailand, it’s Myanmar’s turn now. *LOL* It’s actually Burmese Buddhist Temple. Nothing much but it’s so much bigger than Thai Buddhist Temple.


There were so many photo opportunities there. The statues, the surrounding, the architecture, the colours… I just simple show you some. Didnt’ even bother the good and bad photos hahaha…


Corridor leading to the one of the worship chamber. People also clipped money on the tree as a donation. As for me, you think I will clip one? NOOO!! I’m so stingy hahaha…


The surrounding.


The wishing pond. It’s quite special. Notice the middle of the pond? That structure actually turn and turn and turn and there are bowls attached on it. Each bowl represents different thing such as wealth, luck, health etc. You can try your luck to throw your coin(s) into one of the turning bowls or even more if you have more coins and you are very good in aiming *LOL* Again, I don’t do this thing hahaha…


Huge glode, I’m so small… Next is actually a bell that you can ring. Does ring sounded wrong for bell? It’s weird, bell rings, correct right? However, this bell is so big, do we use ring? I can’t think now! Hahaha…


This is the very, very popular ice cream you can get somewhere outside the Thai and Burmese temples. Coconut ice cream, very refreshing! You must try this out. I don’t know how much but it’s definitely worths your money.

Next post will not be a temple post but after that it wil be again! ;p

Penang Day 3 – Part 1: Sun Yat-Sen, Breakfast, 2 Temples

Posted on By sweet surrender 5 Comments on Penang Day 3 – Part 1: Sun Yat-Sen, Breakfast, 2 Temples

Visited many places in day 3. Majority were temples. There are so many temples in Penang! It’s temple day on day 3 *LOL*


Now we venture into town instead of at Batu Feringghi area. At first we went to a very popular kopitiam that serves those cha siew, pork, duck, chicken rice but some of their food weren’t ready yet. So we went to visit Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Centre Penang, just next to it only. Only a small lane and the memorial centre’s wall divides them.


We were lucky to have the staff there explaining to us about Sun Yat-Sen. Did you know that he had a wife in Penang? Not many people know this. NO photos allowed in the gallery which is in the process of expanding. However, managed to sneakily took a photo of the small, cosy and very romantic setting restaurant located behind the gallery(photo on the right) with my phone. Nice right?

After we finished the visit, we went back to the kopitiam for our brunch.

I have no idea about the name ;p However, I’m sure Penang kia will know since they are very popular, just next door of the memorial centre. The set you see here is for one person only! Imagine 6 sets of this?


Guess how much it cost us? Including drinks only RM39.60! OMG! Such big portion and only cost this little. HEY! Tell me where can you get this kind of portion in Kuching? The soup was really SYIOK! Very appetising and the meat consisted of chicken, gong chiang(pig intestine stuffed with various pork parts), and three layer meat. This meal was really heavy and it lasted us one whole afternoon even until the evening and we didn’t feel hungry.

After that, we started our temples tour.

First stop, was a temple. I’m not sure about the name but heard that it’s some sort college for those that want to study Buddhism. The Bodhi tree was the main attraction. The weather was extremely hot and we went under the tree, it was so cooling! No wonder Buddha sat there to meditate. Heard that the tree was flown all the way to Penang and planted here but of course this is not the real tree Buddha sat under ;p It’s just the same type.

After that, we went to Thai Buddhist Temple. This is where the Sleeping Buddha located.

Those that like buildings or architectures will definitely visit all these temples because the architecture is very unique. Photography enthusiasts will sure love it too.


Entrance to the temple where the HUGE Sleeping Buddha is sleeping ;p


There you go… Say hi to him hahaha…


you can light the lotus candles by buying it from the temple. You can also play with the Wheel of Fortune. Only 50 cents. I didn’t play. Just put your 50-cent coin into the slot then it will turn and stop at a number. Find the number in the box and take out one piece of the paper, that’s your result.

Next up, more temples!

Penang Day 2 – Part 5: Dinner and a Birthday Party

Posted on By sweet surrender 2 Comments on Penang Day 2 – Part 5: Dinner and a Birthday Party

We went back early to have a rest and dinner before heading to a birthday party. After freshened up, played some simple boardgames, had a nap, off we went out to hunt for dinner.


The night view of part of Batu Feringghi. Lots of eateries there. There’s also night market along the whole stretch of road.


We reached Long Beach, recommended by our friend. Also asked us to looked out for the grilled buttered prawn.


We ordered grape ice blended, orange ice blended, pineapple ice blended, and watermelon juice. The ice blended in only RM4, and the juice is RM2.50(if not mistaken).The fruit juice is extremely cheap!


Left: A type of popiah, quite nice. No idea how much ;p I heard it’s Hainan Popiah but not sure.

Right: Mushroom soup. No idea how it tasted but I heard it’s so-so hahaha…


Left: Garlic Chicken Chop, very tasty! I’m the kind that don’t really like garlic but this is really tasty!

Right: O jien aka oyster omelette. Lots of oysters, very generous portion of oyster. You definitely can’t get this portion in Kuching with such price. I have no idea how much but it’s so much cheaper than what you can get in Kuching. Still, I prefer dry type ;p which I didn’t see any in Penang.


Left: Cha kueh tiaw, the only cha kueh tiaw we had during our stay there ;p

Right: The grilled buttered prawn that our friend recommended, I don’t remember how much but this kind of prawn won’t be cheap in Kuching. The price there is so much more cheaper than Kuching but I have no idea how much ;p It’s very salty but not bad.

After our dinner, we went back to our place and it rained! WAH! Lucky us! Else we’ll be WET as our car parked so far. It rained so heavily the whole night. Off we went to Minny‘s birthday party. This is the only blogger I met in Penang hehehe…

We reached there and there were so many people. Hung out and had some junk food. When the clock hitted 12, everyone sang birthday song and series of camwhoring started hehehe… She is TALL! She had to kneel down a bit to have photo with me. I’m so short… ;p At around 12.30am, we left as we need to wake up early the next day for our day 3 “adventure”.

Didn’t manage to meet other bloggers because of time constraint and worst still no contact number given to me! 😛

Finally end of day 2 hehehe… Don’t worry, you will get more parts in day 3(I think… ;p)
