Kemunting Lakeview Restaurant @ Sg Kob, Mahang

This restaurant is located in the Mahang area of Kedah. The lake water fish dishes are good and tasty. I love them. To get to here from Penang, use the BKE highway and pass thru Kulim High-Tech park. After turning into Kulim High-Tech Park, go straight and at the fourth traffic light, turn left towards Mahang. Follow the road and go straight on. You will pass by Petronas on your left and caltex on your right. Straight on and you will pass by police station and pusat serenti on your left. Then about 1KM, you will come to a junction with the below sign board - Restoran Kemunting Lake View (GUINNESS). Follow it. You will notice that there is almost similar signboard with Tiger. Don't follow that. It will lead you to another seafood restaurant (competitor). Make sure to follow the one with GUINNESS logo. Comparative to the one opposite Petronas station (recommended by Astro Ah Xian), this one is more cleaner, brighter and most of all less less flies and road leading into the restaurant is in much better conditioned than the Restoran Kolam Ikan (oppo Petronas station). This restaurant is also floating on the fish lake. So you will have a nice view of the lake with the fishes swimming by your side. Besides fishes, paddy frog dishes are also their specialties.








Catfish in the water
lampan fish in the lake



Steamed lampan fish - it is a very nice fish to eat. The flesh is very smooth, tender and has that fresh sweetness on every bite. Just eat it slowly....while enjoying every bite of the fish and this will prevent you from swallowing any bones....this fish has many bones...

3 tastes tilapia fish



Restoran Q Wok Nyonya Curry House @ Bayu Mutiara (near Juru Auto-city)









This restaurant is located at Bayu Mutiara, Bukit Mertajam. It's just 1km away from Juru Auto-City. It's a new restaurant which just opened recently. Price is quite reasonable but the taste wise is so-so...err...I would say my grandma's nyonya dishes were much better than food in this restaurant...Missed my grandma's cooking a lot......


Good Hakka/Tai Po noodles @ Taman Inderawasih, Prai









The tai poo noodles is hand-made by the towkay neoh's husband. Normally this coffeshop is crowded with OL/OM & factory people especially during lunch time but if you reached there by 12 noon, I'm sure you will still find yourself a table. The coffeeshop is behind Public Bank where you can park your vehicle at the Taman Inderawasih medan selera parking space. Besides the hakka/tai poo noodles, the 'Koay teow th'ng' there is quite nice as well.
