A couple of weeks ago, we visited a friend who stays in Farlim. He gave us a treat at Pizza Station in old Sunshine Farlim. Thanks CK!

Because of him, we got a chance to try something new. Also, we got an opportunity to observe the pizza making process. As you can see, the boss is a bit shy to let us shoot his photos. Hehehe...


Twisty Garlic Bread @ RM3.80

We ordered the garlic bread without the wild mushroom soup, a wrong decision. A good mushroom soup is a complement to good garlic bread. So, my advice is to order both. :)
For the pizzas, we opted for 2 regular supreme "thin & crispy" crust at RM30 (for two).


Italiano Regular Pizza

The Italiano pizza with chicken ham, pepperoni, mushroom, onion, green capsicum and top with mozzarella cheese.


BBQ Meat Galore Regular Pizza

BBQ Meat Galore with chicken sausage, ham, chunky chicken, tangy BBQ sauce, lemon mayo & Mozzarella cheese.
Overall it was a satisfying meal. The pizza and garlic bread was nice hot from the oven. :)

Mango Yogurt Cake (Baked in Rice Cooker) 电饭锅做蛋糕


After the several successes of cake baking in the rice cooker, I endeavored to try a new flavour. It's my own mix and match kind of experimental recipe. I'm proud to say that it turns out yummy! :)

Initially after baking, the cake was a bit dry. Surprisingly within a night, it transformed into moist, fragrant and soft cake. It's unbelievable! Anyone knows the theory behind? Please share with me.

Mango Yogurt Cake

260gm of mango yogurt
120 gm of Caster sugar
4 eggs (Grade B) at room temperature
50gm of sunflower oil
200gm of self-raising flour
1 tsp of baking powder

Method:

1. Beat the eggs and Caster sugar under high speed until fluffy. (I beat it for about 15 minutes)

2. Pour in the yogurt and mix well.

3. Gently fold in the sifted flour and baking powder with plastic spatula.

4. Lastly, add the sunflower oil and mix well with spatula.

5. Using spatula, transfer the batter into inner pot of rice cooker. Give the pot a few good shake to remove the air trapped in the batter.

6. Bake the cake using "quick cook" menu.

7. When it's done, leave it cool. Upside turn the pot to leave the cake bottom-up on a big plate.

Papaya Salad (Kerabu Betik)

It's my first time making a kerabu dish. I'm using the raw papaya freshly plucked from in law's back yard to make this papaya salad. The process is really simple and the outcome is quite impressive. The combination of sweet, sour and spicy online will get you excited. It's a good appetiser to kick start a meal.

Papaya Salad

Ingredients:

1/4 of unripe papaya, peeled, seeded and shredded
1 bunga kantan, finely chopped
handful of mint leaves, coarsely chopped
some bird's eye chilies, chopped
5 kalamansi, juiced (adjust to your own liking)
pinch of salt
brown sugar to taste

Method:
Mix all the ingredients and keep it cool in fridge before serving.

Nested in the Southern region of Penang island, Hai Boey is one of the good spots to hang out for fresh seafood. Here, you can enjoy your seafood with love ones by the seaside.


Salted Egg Yolk Crab RM29

Two mud crabs weighed 650gm were deep-fried till perfection and then sauteed with salted duck egg yolk sauce. The simple ingredients were just nice to impart its flavor. Definitely mouth watering :)


Groupa in clay pot RM45

Every time when we visit this place, we'll never forget to order this dish, Groupa with their special sauce cooked in clay pot and garnished with parsley. The fish is fresh and meat is tender. Another recommended dish!


Tiger Prawns in Spicy and Sourish Sauce RM30

2 tiger prawns weighed 200gm is a bit expensive at RM30. Each of us just got to savor only half of a prawn. But, I would like to give this dish a thumbs up as the prawns are fresh and succulent. The gravy is a real appetite booster.


Stir Fried Emperor Noodles (serves 4) RM15

We opted for fried emperor noodles instead of rice. The noodles is springy and fragrant. So far, this is the most flavorful emperor noodles that I've tasted. :)


Seaweed tofu with mushrooms RM15

Their signature tofu is one of a must dish. Their home made tofu is smooth and silky, viola!

The food here is not bad if you order the right dishes and if the seafood is fresh....the only thing is that it was quite pricey....total damages for the above dinner RM140.40 for 4 person. :P
