Food Review: Sticks Fire Bistro@Queensbay Mall, Penang

One of our evenings, we went to Sticks Fire Bistro to try out their food. The meal turned out to be really horrible. The place was okay. The live band was horrible. The service was horrible. Worst of all, the food was totally indescribably horrible.

Well, an exception for the appetizer. Probably because spring rolls is a simple dish so, there is no other way they could screw it up.

This is their so-called Salmon Pasta. Do you see any salmon? I saw cheap, small, little pieces of salmon here and there. It was tasteless as well. Disappointing.

Their Juicy Burger. They indicated to me that it is going to be quite big but what the hell? It was not even half of the size they showed to me. Anyway, it was good. My problem was with its size.

And these were their soup and dessert. Pretty pathetic, right? And we ain’t going back there anymore.

Tokyo Street@Pavilion KL

It was the week that I first went for my, well, previous job’s training. Yeah, this post is backdated. Like super backdated. In fact, most of my posts now were backdated.

After almost a month in Penang, I finally could have the food that I missed the most. The food that I previously could have at least once a month when I was still staying in Kuala Lumpur, and they are kampua and bian nvk!

We headed to Pavilion after and went to its recently opened Tokyo Street. I heard of it but never had the chance to go over. It reminded me of some other streets in Sunway Pyramid.

We found a few interesting stuff there such as a huge Domo!

Then a photo booth and well, typical me, went to fool around with it.

Feeling thirsty? They have Ochado for you and trust me, this is better than Chatime. I doubt I can find Ochado in Penang. What a pity.

And before we headed back, we went to get something from Parkson and ta-dah!

Behold my first damage, from Tokyo Street. A toy chocolate camera. Yes, that is a camera! My friends who saw this would not believe it!

And the second damage, from Parkson. I am into Laneige products thanks to my ex-housemate. They did their job and my complexion is getting better now.

Food Review: Kaffa Kafe@Straits Quay, Penang

Kaffa has three outlets in Penang but we chose to go to the one that was recently opened in Straits Quay. Also, it was our first time there as well. We ordered two sets of meal and some appetizers since we skipped our breakfast and lunch that day.

The mushroom soup was just nice and reasonable portion. However, could have given us more garlic breads though.

Our first appetizer was Vietnamese Lemongrass Chicken Salad. Portion enough for two persons. It was good so no negative comments on this.

Our next appetizer was Grilled Beef Bites. The portion was reasonable and it was good as well. Not disappointing at all.

One of our main courses was Baked Seafood Pasta. However, too much of it will make you feel sick. Fortunately we were sharing our food.

I love everything about steaks and ribs so I ordered Braised Beef Rib. Though the portion may be small (fortunately we ordered appetizers), it was good and the boyfriend loves it.

And if you want to stay longer in the café but got nothing to do, just borrow their iPad and play some games! Bawesome, right? However, you are only entitled to use it for 2 hours. No, you do not have to pay any cent. All you’ve got to do is to register in their register book. I wonder how many iPads they have in the café..

Anyway, to wrap things up, if you were to drop by Straits Quay in Penang, Kaffa Kafe ain’t a bad place to go to. Just head over there and you will agree with me.
