Penang Cuisine in Singapore
As everyone knows, Penang is famous for her cuisine. For those with a good appetite, Princess Terrace at Copthorne King's Hotel is still one of the best, offering a huge variety of Penang fare. I like their Hokkien Mee and Char Koay Teow as well as their Zhiu Hu Car (a kind of salad that is quite like the Indian rojak). Having a sweet tooth means the widespread dessert is a die die must try! The variety of colorful nonya kuehs, the bubor cha cha, ice kachang are what I usually tuck in. However, due to the constant nagging of my siblings and well-meaning friends, I have tried not to go for the buffet spread. Although Chef Mary Chong has spread her wings to London, the current chef, Mr. Loh, is just as good.
Hence, it was a great delight when I discovered Jason's Penang Cuisine when I was at the Ministry of Environment Building. Jason's has moved to the CBD (Central Business District) area and is now located at Amoy Street Food Centre, Stall No. #02-120. If you wish to have a party, you can call the lovely couple Jason or his wife, Linda, at 98495815. They would require 2 days advanced booking. The plate of char koay teow with prawns, cockles, chives, bean sprouts, eggs and crabmeat at $2.50/$3.00 per plate is real value for money! The Hokkien mee oozes with real prawn flavour and comes with a generous amount of fresh prawns, braised pork, bean sprouts, egg and vegetables. I brought my client, Mr. Edmund Ong (the gentleman who is 60 but looks like 40) and was surprised that health conscious Mr. Ong could not resist having a second bowl of Hokkien mee!! The dish is so good that he temporarily forgets his meticulousness with his diet!
Come and try the above recommendation. If you have time and want to entertain in style and comfort, Princess Terrace is the place to dine in. If you are in a hurry and not particularly too hungry, or if you are on a tight budget or strict diet, go for Jason's Penang food. The food centre is pleasant but is a little warm as there is no air-conditioning, but who cares when the food is perspiringly delicious!!
