Tuk Tuk Thai Restaurant

Tuk Tuk Thai Restaurant is a fairly new establishment at the Kristal Point strip. There was just the two of us, me and another girl friend so we ordered three dishes, handpicked by my friend who has frequented the place before.

Tomyam Prawn RM15

Kailan Salted Fish RM15

Steamed Tuk Tuk Fish RM15

Overall food was good especially the Tom Yam. The steamed fish was a welcomed change from the usual. The restaurant is moderately sized, occupying just the ground floor of the shop lot at Kristal Point, yet the decor is done with good taste.

Lunch Set Menu

Look out for their lunch set menu if you want something really value-for-money.

Master Choo Kitchen

We stumbled upon Master Choo Kitchen while checking out the latest shopping sensation in Georgetown city - the 1st Avenue Mall. It was lunch time and this establishment stood out from the limited and usual food joints at the mall.

It was later found out that this restaurant orginated from Sungai Petani where it's famous for the egg tarts. This is their first restaurant in Penang. The Oriental themed decor is quite elaborate so we decided to check the place out. The menu did not fail to impress with its variety of offerings - dim sum, porridge, noodles, soup etc.

Cheese Tart (RM2)

Braised Chicken Drumstick with Shanghainese Noodle

Black Sesame Mixed with Brown Rice Powder (RM6.30)

Stone Steamed Oat Porridge (RM12.90)

Shanghai Crab Soup Dumpling (RM5.30)

Golden Bun and Curry Chicken

Fresh Crystal Prawn Dumpling (RM4.30)

Overall, the food somehow fell a bit short of my expectations. Unfortunately they ran out of their famous egg tart. The Shanghainese Noodle and Golden Bun are worth a try though. You will most probably find something that you like from the extensive menu.
