Penang Buffet

Since i started living in school hostel 2 semesters ago, i've been frequenting the gym at Fusionopolis and that's when this Penang buffet restaurant - Penang Place caught my attention! 

Finally managed to find my buddies to try out this place a day after we received our results (yes, im now a graduate!!!)

Penang Place, Fusionopolis

Restaurant was relatively quiet when we first got there at 6.30pm but it slowly filled up and by the time we left, it was pretty crowded already!








Extremely yummy Penang-style char kway teow. Tasted exactly like the one i had in Penang last year ;)



I know they don't look very appetising on my plate but the stingray and curry were pretty damn good ;)


We don't wait for latecomer(s). lol.

Penang Laksa and Hokkien Mee corner! 

A really small portion of assam laksa but tasted authentic nevertheless! Love the shredded fish bits they added!





They had a small corner for chinese dim-sum. According to SH, their fried chicken wings were really tasty but after they were all taken by other customers, they refilled the tray with satay instead so none for me =( Booo.


Pleasantly surprised they provided a DIY Rojak counter, complemented with an array of fruits for you to choose from, staying true to the Fruit Rojak style i had back in Penang ;)

The PRO at work. hehehe. 


Dessert counter comprised of the usual longan desserts and traditional Peranakan kuehs. You can also find mango pudding and gui-ling-gao from the fridge (in the background)





My favorite dessert corner? ICE-KACHANG machine!!! haha.

How do you guys eat your ice-kachang? For Nisha and me, it's always "ice-kachang, but no kachang (red beans) and lotsa corns!!" haha. So much for calling it ice-kachang. lol.



No ice-kachang is tastier than the one you made youself, don't you think? 


The bill came up to be around S$29/pax which is slightly more pricey for a small buffet restaurant like this one but i like how the food reminded me of the great meals i had back in Penang and the quality and authenticity of the food choices made this trip worthwhile!

Oh, and you can read about my Penang travelogue if you are keen here:
Day One, Two, Three and Four.


Until next time!
