Goh Teo Kee Taman Sri Nibong

We were back at Goh Teo Kee Sungai Nibong for Grandaunt Rebecca and Granduncle Yip's farewell dinner before they left for their home in Canada.

The Sungai Nibong outlet serves primarily Teowchew cuisine and Goh Teo Kee is probably one of the more famous Teowchew restaurants in Penang. They have a very elaborate menu at quite an affordable price.

Curry Kapitan Pork Ribs

Stir Fried Green Bean and Lady Finger

Braised Teowchew Toufu with Green Leek

Dinner is served!

Stir Fried Fresh Oyster

Atlantic King Cod

Fresh Sea White Prawn

Stewed Dried Seafood Claypot

Oyster Noodle

Teochew Yam Paste with Glazed Gingko Nuts

We ordered the RM298 set (for 10 to 12 pax). However, since we had 13 adults and 3 small children, we had to split into two tables so they offered to divide the food into two portions for us.

The set came with all of the above including Double Boiled Soup except the Oyster Noodle which we ordered additionally.

Food was good as usual except for the soup which was a tad too salty for our taste.

Goh Teo Kee Sungai Ara

Goh Teo Kee is quite famous in Penang for its signature Teowchew dishes. They have three outlets on the island, one in Sungai Nibong, another in Sungai Ara and last but not least at Gurney Drive.



The outlet in Sungai Ara serves a combination of Teowchew and Thai cuisine. Their menu is very elaborate and they offer a wide variety of set menus for different group size and ala carte dishes. The outlet can accommate up to about 10 mid-size tables and is very clean and comfortable.

We ordered the RM398+ set menu for 10 to 12 pax.

Teo Kee Signature Four Seasons (Fresh Octopus, Soft Shell Crab Salad, BBQ Pork with basil leaves, Thai Lor Bak)

Everybody liked the dish because it was different from the conventional Four Seasons that you get elsewhere. The BBQ pork was very tasty with the basil leaves and special soy sauce as accompaniment.

Famous Stuffed Sea Cucumber

This dish went very well with most of us. The sea cucumber was very soft and stuffed with pork and water chestnut.

Special Yin Yang Chicken (with Plum Sauce and Thai Style)

Atlantic King Cod Fish Steamed with Soy Sauce

Siam Crispy Pork Trotter

Fresh Sea Water Prawn Thai Butter Style

Deluxe Scallop XO Sauce Tofu

Braised Australian Fresh Scallop with Brocolli

Teowchew Yam Paste with Glazed Gingko Nuts

The Teowchew Yam Paste is an acquired taste so not everybody will like it.

Overall everyone agreed that food was very good except for the prawn dish which was a tad bland and the pork trotter which was a bit dry. The service was simply excellent and the staff very attentive and customer focus. Even the restaurant owner, Han, personally served and attended to us throughout our meal at the restaurant. Definitely a very good dining experience indeed ;)

Goh Huat Seng Restaurant

We were at Goh Huat Seng on the eve of Father's Day to celebrate an early Father's Day with dad. As usual, the restaurant was packed to the brim and some people had to wait for about 15 minutes to be seated.

Goh Huat Seng is probably the most famous Teow Chew and traditional steamboat restaurant in Penang. They are famous for their steamboat served in traditional copperware and signature dishes like the Oh Chien Nui (Fried Egg with Oyster), Chim Cho (Crab Roll), He Cho (Prawn Roll), Char Mee Teow (Stir Fried Noodles), Lor Ak (Braised Duck), Hai Som Pau Bak (Pork Wrapped in Sea Cucumber) etc.

They serve steamboat sets at RM70, RM80 and RM100. Since the steamboat is made of copper and they also provide a mini fan to fan the fire, eventhough the steamboat burns on charcoal, the soup still heated up very fast. The steamboat ingredients were fresh and the soup was just right.

Steamboat (RM80)

Teow Chew Dishes

Char Mee Teow (Stir Fried Noodles) RM12

Chim Cho (Crab Rolls) and He Cho (Prawn Rolls) RM20

"Fathers and Daughters Have a Romance "

Fathers and daughters have a romance

That goes on for the rest of their lives,

Destined to ripen and age as they dance

Through the days of their husbands and wives.

Up near the surface their love is distinct,

Like a garden surveyed in the sun,

In which seedtime and full bloom are credibly linked

By a consciousness shared and hard won.

Deep down below, where the world is a dream,

And the dream is a world of its own,

All manner of memories the moments redeem

In a place where one's never alone

Happy Father's Day, dad!!!
