AEON Seberang Perai City @ Bandar Perda, Bukit Mertajam

August 22, 2008

22nd AUgust 2008 is the opening day for one of the biggest shopping mall in Northern Malaysia - AEON Seberang Perai City or also known as Jusco Bandar Perda in Bukit Mertajam. It is such a nice coincidence that I happen to be in Bukit Mertajam at the same time it opened the doors to the public.
To be honest I have been waiting for this mall to open for years. Because, we the BM kias really deserve a better mall and AEON Seberang Perai City is the perfect answer.
I think the one of the most exciting part is that the first Big Apple Donuts & Coffee outlet in Penang will also open here. It is something food bloggers in Penang have been anticipating. Best of all, it is only 10 minutes away from my house!

Big Apple Donuts & Coffee @ AEON Seberang Perai City

Oh yeah Big Apple Donuts & Coffee has finally opened in Penang. Surprisingly the first Penang outlet is opened in AEON Seberang Perai City or Jusco Bandar Perda in Bukit Mertajam, not any other shopping complexes on the island side.
Today is AEON Seberang Perai City’s opening day and I just went there with my mom. Guess who has already bought and eaten the donuts, lol.

A box of 6 donuts is RM9.50. Currently Big Apple is having a special Merdeka month promotion where you would get 3 donuts free for every 6 purchased or a box of 6 donuts free with any purchase of box of 12 pieces.
Iced cappucino is also available at a cheap price of RM2.50 with any purchase of box of 12 pieces. You will only get the vouchers after an initial purchase but I am pretty sure the vouchers can be found easily online too.

Ji Bao Gai @ Sentosa Corner Kopitiam

August 21, 2008

***This is a filler post***

Currently, I am in Bukit Mertajam 大山脚 and I have very limited access to my blogging tools. So, update will be back to normal again once I get back to Selangor. Anyway, I have been eating quite a lot of Ji Bao Gai (fried paper wrapped chicken) lately in Serdang. Ji Bao Gai is exceptionally popular in Serdang and Seri Kembangan area. Almost all the Yong Tau Fu restaurants there serve it.

Thinking back, I had Ji Bao Gai 纸包鸡 too when I was small in BM. It was different with those in Serdang. To show you, I found a place in Taman Sentosa, BM which sells Hong Kong Stlye Ji Bao Gai as well as fried chicken.

fried chicken and ji bao gai

If you haven’t tasted Ji Bao Gai before, you are missing out one of the nicest chicken dish in Malaysia. Ji Bao Gai is done by marinating chicken meat - usually chicken wing, thigh and drumstick in soy sauce and seasoning, which is then wrapped in greaseproof paper and deep fried.

Leong Ya 梁雅 is undeniably one of the best known restaurants in Serdang for their Ji Bao Gai. Their version is different because they use ginger and has more gravy. But the one in BM shown above is very dry and taste much like normal honey BBQ chicken. The fried chicken is pretty good though, crispy skin and fresh meat.

The stall is called Winner’s Fried Chicken and can be found in Sentosa Corner kopitiam, Taman Sentosa. It only opens at night. I ate here just a while ago for supper.

Besides Ji Bao Gai(1) and fried chicken(2), they also have fried chicken gizzard(3) and fries(4), like any other fried chicken stalls you’d find lah, lol.

White Wantan Mee @ Tua Pek Kong Bukit Mertajam

July 10, 2008

If there should be a most iconic food for Bukit Mertajam 大山脚, it would be none other than the noodles sold beside BM’s Tua Pek Kong Temple. It has been given a lot of names from White Wantan Mee to Tok Tok Mee to Tokong Mee. However, most people I came across prefer to call it White Wantan Mee. I think this is because it’d sound more recognizable for the masses and also create curiosity for strangers of Bukit Mertajam. Now, wouldn’t you want to know how wantan mee looks and tastes like, in white?
