Eat : Janxden Greenlife (简单绿意) @ Georgetown, Penang

Hi Foodie Yo!

Today, I will be sharing with you all on my lunch experience in Janxden Greenlife (简单绿意) @ Georgetown, Penang. It is a vegetarian cafe where you can find from Chinese-style cooking to Italian Pasta and Pizza. Their menu is quite a variety consisting noodles, porridge, rice, pizza and desserts.



The Menu

These are what we have ordered!

1. Creamy Cheese Baked Rice (奶油芝士焗饭)- RM16.90

Chunks of egg-plant, carrots can be seen!
A very creamy texture where each of every piece of rice is covered with the cream sauce. Other ingredients include mushrooms and eggplant that are chopped into cube size, just nice for a spoonful of goodness. Topped with baked cheese on top. Cheese or cream lovers, you will love this!


2. Pesto Pizza (九层塔比萨) - RM20.90
Goodness

Pizza with Pesto Paste Topped with Cherry Tomatoes, Egg-plant, Mushrooms

You can definitely smell the delightful pesto sauce from far. For those whom are not in favour of pesto, this is not recommended. I am attracted by the colour of the pizza in the menu actually. Green pesto base with ingredients like egg-plant, mushroom and cherry tomatoes, all are my favourite. How can I missed this?! I am quite upset that the amount of egg-plant presented was not as much as I have expected but generally it still taste good. Generous amount of cheese. Did I mention that I love cheese?

3. Applejito (念念不忘)- RM9.90


Mix fresh Fruit Juice where no artificial colouring is added. Applejito (念念不忘) is a combination of Apple + Mint Leave + Lemon. Quite refreshing drinking in the middle of the hot day. But I believe that the size have shrink? I remember drinking this in a tall glass but now...


Overall the lunch experience was good. Attentive staff and relaxing environment. Also, food is good.

Eat : Wei Fang Bao Zi (味坊包子) @ Mount Erskine, Penang

Hi Foodie Yo!

Today bringing you all to Wei Fang Bao Zi (味坊包子) @ Mount Erskine, Penang. It is a Chinese restaurant famous for their soup-filling-bun or we usually call them tang bao (汤包)and dumpling (饺子).

The menu is not very wide. Limited selection from only tangbao, dumpling and noodle.


The Menu


Some brief description about their bun
Following will be the review of what we have ordered.

 1. Tea
The tea was ordinary. It was not served hot but I am ok with that. Probably because it is a free-flow self service.
Free-flow Tea (RM1.50)

 2. 炸酱面(Zha Jiang Mian, Minced Meat Noodle)
The noodle was well-cooked. I like how the noodle has the al dante consistency. Together with the noodle they have the soy paste minced meat, fine peanuts and shredded cucumber. In a mouthful, you can taste the rich-flavoured minced meat with some crunchiness from the cucumber and peanut. It is also my first time having noodle with peanut, tho. Other than the base was a bit oily to my liking, it taste quite good.
炸酱面 (RM7.00)

Every mouthful you get this!

3. 水饺 (Shui Jiao, Dumpling)
This is what they are famous for, their chinese dumpling. A plate comes in 5 dumplings. 5 fillings for your selection (Pork, Pork Sauerkraut, Pork Leek, Pork Celery, Pork Cabbage). If you cannot make up your mind on which you want to get, get all 5! The owner actually recommended to get all 5 fillings in a plate. Get to taste all fillings at one go. 

Even though the food presentation doesn't look good, but do not judge a book by its cover! The fillings are well cooked and they are able to preserved the juices of the meat in the dumpling. The skin is a bit thick too my liking but overall, I still like them.
Dumpling - Pork (RM1.00/piece)

Dumpling - Pork Leek (RM1.00/piece)

4. 生煎包 (Sheng Jian Bao, Pan-Fry Pork Soup Bun)
Another recommended dish. I love the crispiness of the skin and the juicy pork inside. Becareful, it is hot-from-the-stove. It might feel warm outside but it's burning inside. It comes in 5 piece for each plate. 

生煎包 (RM8 per plate)

This is the juice from the bun. 

add some chilly for some hot kicks

I love them with vinegar!

 5. 蒙古奶茶 (Mongolian Milk Tea)
 If you wanted to try something different, try this! It is called the mongolian milk tea. It smells a bit like fresh milk (the one that you can get from indian stall, not the commercialized one from the supermarket). Tastes a bit salty, and grainy. Not sure if it contains grain.
Mongolian Milk Tea (RM2.50)

It always feels great to have tea after a meal. The owner was sweet enough to offer tea pot as we were walking back and forth to top-up the tea. *haha* Well at least it sooth the tummy after so much meat.
Tea Served in Bowl
