Summer Garden Food Bistro

Sandra May

Summer Garden isn't the usual tourist hang up the phone place like it is located from city center. Our favourite foods are vinegar pork knuckle, pork stomach, perut ikan, siam laksa and fried bungkung with sherreded ededcuttle seafood. The chef can provide outthe genuine nyonya flavours. In fact you can find exactly the same dishes we order every time we go to the restaurant . For dessert try the sago pudding with gula melaka (palm sugar). The one thing i find expensive may be the drink, even though watercress juice is tasty nonetheless it cost RM4.8 for a little glass. If you going to Penang and prefer to try a geniune nyonya food, this is actually the spot to be .. cab driver will be able to find this place .. Miss ML

This perhaps too-well kept secret of a eating place offers up really delicious, authentic Penang Nyonya food (not the same as Malacca Nyonya food) that tastes enjoy it came out of one's mum's kitchen rather than restaurant. We had the advantage of sampling a significant wide varietyof menu items once we have there been for a mid-size functionality - and also with the quantity of people, the meals quality was excellent. There have been several stand-away dishes - the nasi ulam (rice with raw shredded veggies & local herbs) was the star of the show. For somebody who generally has actually 3 tablespoons of rice for carbs, I gorged on the fragrant, yellow saffron-infused rice which got a very generous assisting of finely shredded herbal treatments, shallots and both fried dried shrimp and salted seafood. The 'chee kiok cho' (pork trotters in lovely vinegar) had been the only one There is on par with my mum's - and that is a hard work to check out. This is currently a hard dish to find beyond homes but to get one which does it well - it is a gem! The additional very good dishes we'd had been the braised pork, 'jiu hoo char' (turnip prepared with dried squid offered in a lettuce wrap), fried prawns and poultry curry. The desserts were also house-made - and incredibly good. The Japanese-design cheesecake was lighting, fluffy and acquired a more powerful cheese punch that i like, when compared to industrial Japanese cheesecakes which really do not taste like they have got any cheese inside them at all. We furthermore sampled the durian mousse cake (limited to the durian lovers!) - that was light however had good enough durian flavour since it was made out of quality durian flesh. The ambiance of the area was informal, relaxed and friendly - a good place to relax with friends and family.
