A delicious dinner @ Delicious, Straits Quay

Hello all, I have returned after being so quiet for more than 1 month. I need to admit that I'm still lack of enthusiasm to blog sometimes, especially when i'm busy and tied up with work or events. Recently I have received a call from a blogger, reminding me that I have been MIA for a while in blogsphere, and my colleague who is also my blog follower, keeps nagging about me not posting up anything recently, that's why now I'm forcing myself to complete this drafted post, which has been pending in my blog list for a while :P

Min Fei's parents and sister came over to Penang (in July) for a short visit. We brought them to Straits Quay for a dinner, which I believe is the most happening place in this island currently. 

I know that this is a very late post (sorry for that :P). It is still a big challenge for me to update blog on a daily basis. So I am keeping all my photos and will try to write up something when I have the urge / inspiration / "semangat" to do so. 



clockwise from bottom left: onion soup, Rendang short ribs, Mascarpone Pesto Chicken served with fried potatoes and asparagus, pan-seared crispy skin salmon
clockwise from left: spicy zucchini spaghettini with feta cheese and pine nuts, Carbonara Spaghettini, homemade Pesto Spaghettini
Marsala Lambshank (yummeh)

The food was good and they all came in very big portion, and of course with a slightly high price.
If you are interested to try the Marsala Lambshank, it's recommended to share it with another person unless you are a big eater.

I was told that the dessert sold there is very nice and worth a try especially the Coconut Cake, but we had too much during that night. None of us was able to try the dessert as we were struggling hard to finish the main dishes. =.= so i will come back for the dessert and afternoon tea some day. :)

Penang is a small island. We met cousins there with my grandma too. Too bad she's not in the pic. 




What's your favourite hangout / restaurant at Straits Quay? Do share with me ya :)
