Cool Bananas Children's Party Package

Our niece Abigail turned four in May and her daddy and mommy threw a birthday party for her at the Cool Bananas Parkroyal Hotel Penang and invited her friends from nursery.

The Cool Bananas Children's Party Package includes free flow of chilled soft drinks, a choice of 9 snacks, two fun games organised by the resort's activities staff, a complimentary cake, use of swimming pool and 70-foot long waterslide.

Abigail and her friends played in the swimming pool to their hearts' content and were later treated to a buffet which consisted of fish fingers, fruits, two types of pizza, pasta, fried rice, chicken bites, potato wedges and mini burgers.

I am quite sure Abigail had a blast at her 4th birthday party. Happy Birthday, Abby!

The price is RM35.00++ per person for a minimum of 15 children (RM32.00++ per person for PARKROYAL Prestige members). Advance reservation is required.
Time : 3.00 pm - 7.00 pm daily

Marrybrown

We decided to give the Marrybrown outlet in Bukit Jambul mall a try since this fast food chain seemed to have made a comeback with a few new outlets opening in Penang recently. To our surprise, they have quite an elaborate menu ranging from fried chicken to burgers to local delights to seafood to Value and Kiddy Meals (with gift), jelly ice cream, float, sundae etc.

According to their website, Marrybrown is Malaysian owned and managed. Marrybrown was founded in 1981 and is the largest home grown fast food chain with over 250 outlets in Malaysia, Indonesia, China, India, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Azerbaijan, Syria & Iran.

Seafood Porridge
Seafood porridge served with schredded crabsticks, MB crispy chili prawn paste, fried onion and spring onion.

Double Chicken Delight Combo
1 piece of Original / Hotouch fried chicken and 1 chicken burger. Comes with regular Pepsi.

They seem to try to position themselves as something in between the two existing biggest fast food chains in Malaysia. Actually, I have to give them the credit for doing quite a good job. They were enjoying very brisk business when we were there on a Saturday during dinner hours.

The seafood porridge, though lacking in ingredients, was quiet special with the chili prawn paste. The fried chicken was crispy and I liked the fact that the burger bun was very soft and full of sesame seeds.
