Amazing Vegan Food In Penang!! Pinxin Vegan Cuisine

Image
As most of you know, I am plant-based 95% of the time. So when I was thinking what should I focus on in my second episode of Eat What Leh? series on Youtube in Penang, I thought it would be really cool to have a full day of eating as a vegan in Penang.  Finding vegetarian or vegan food in Malaysia is not a big of a problem because us Chinese and Indian are mostly vegetarians. There are many vegetarian economic rice shops that can be found in the streets of Penang and it is also most people's preferred choice as it is really cheap. But I wanted to try something different so I searched up for some vegan restaurants and here are two that I went to.  I really love the baroque inspired interior design in Pin Xin that had definitely been thought through really well.  There are also motivational quotes around the restaurant that definitely did not failed to motivate me to being 100% plant-based.  It worked guys.  L-R: PinXin Nasi Lemak (RM18) , Pr...

Breakast Buffet: Belcancao @ Four Seasons Hotel, Macau

Image
A good breakfast equals to a good start to the day. Well, most of the time. This is also why breakfast is even more important and a thing that I look forward to the most when I'm on a holiday. On our second day in Macau, we started off our day with a breakfast buffet at Belcancao which is in Four Seasons Hotel.  Whether you feel like having Japanese, Korean, Western, Chinese cuisine or even nasi lemak, they have it all. This will be one of those days where you'll find yourself spending too much time on breakfast though I don't mind sitting here for hours especially with the atmosphere in there that is somewhat classy yet comfortable. They also have a outdoor sitting area if you want some natural morning air to accompany your meal. You wouldn't miss this wide spread of pastries as it is just right in front of the entrance. For a pastry lover, this was a little bit too overwhelming for me. There's  croissant, Portuguese egg tarts, Spinach Cheese Quiche, Cr...

NOODLE LAH! @ WAN CHAI, HONG KONG

Image
"Noodle LAH!" was where we had our first meal in Hong Kong. Pretty sure the word "Lah" seems familiar to us Malaysians and that is because this restaurant was founded by a Malaysian. I've been to their previous outlet 5 years ago, but I was still small back then so the memory is quite blurred.  I've always find cute and quirky menus make the whole experience more memorable and fun! I'm really glad that I only had to decide what to eat based on their breakfast menu as I'm pretty sure that I'll have a harder time deciding, if I was given the actual menu to choose from.  I was craving for a hearty bowl of soup as I wasn't feeling well after our ferry ride from Macau earlier. Their Hearty Fufu ($40/RM20) really did satisfied my cravings. It is a bowl of tomato soup with fusili, minced pork, fried eggs and veggies. If you're homesick or you just miss home cooked food in general, order this as it will bring you closer to home. ...

Guide To Instagramable Spots In Ipoh!

Image
  If you're not familiar with the term "Instagramable", it is basically a word people uses these days for places, food, objects that is good enough to be posted on Instagram. You have the Instagramable cafes, coffees, ice-creams, basically anything that'll make your feed looks wowwwzzzaaaa.   I recently went to Ipoh which if I've written a blog post about what we ate, see and did there ( click here ) and also uploaded 3 vlogs on my channel ( Part 1 , Part 2 , Part 3 ) and had posted many pictures from the trip that I think were " Instagramable ". I've asked you all on Instagram whether should I make a guide to all the spots/places I went and majority voted "Yes" so here are some of my favourite spots. 1) The Yellow & Blue Building We stumbled across this building after our breakfast at Kedai Kopi Sin Yoon Loong. It is just across the road and it is definitely hard to miss! Almost similar to the Choi Hung Estate in Hong...

What We Did, Ate & See In Ipoh

Image
  Most of you might not know this but I was actually born in Ipoh. I used to find Ipoh boring because whenever we're there, we just stay indoors and spend time with our relatives. We don't go to the town area or have breakfast at kopitiams (coffee shop).   Now that I'm older (not that old ok), I love exploring cities, food hunting and taking pictures. I told my family that we are not going to lock ourselves at home for this trip! I did some research of places that we should eat or go and created a little itinerary. So here is a short breakdown of what we did, where we ate and went! [watch my Ipoh vlogs: Part 1 , Part 2  , Part 3 ] What We Ate? 1) Breakfast @ Kedai Kopi Sin Yoon Loong  I just realised that in my 19 years of living, I've never tried Ipoh white coffee in Ipoh. We always go back for the Ngar Choy Gai, Heong Piah, and the yee mee near my uncle's place. So I asked Mr.Google where can I taste the best Ipoh white coffee? There were q...
