Wealth and Casino

I attended a Robert Kiyosaki session at Equatorial Hotel Penang many years back.

One of his comments that still resides inside my mind is that he said Chinese tends to gamble away their wealth, and I am quite agree with him.

To me, casino should be a place to make fun, not an avenue to make fortune.
Keep this inside your mind and you'll be having a beautiful life, and lots of fun (:

Chennai Curry House

I came across Chennai Curry House in Sungai Petani, Kedah.



From the outside, it looks clean and contemporary. If they managed to come to Penang, I think they are able to provide a good alternative to Penangite apart from the current nasi kandar chains.



The King at Hard Rock Hotel, Penang

Black or white ?




It's white in Penang

Breathtaking E&O Hotel waterfront

It's safe to stay at E&O Hotel, Penang because it has many cannons along its waterfront :)



Beautiful tropical garden with coconut trees dancing with the wind


Coconut might fall onto your head if you are not careful enough


In the nutshell, it's really a first class spot in Penang for total relaxation




Partial photo shots of E&O Hotel buffet lunch

I went to E&O Hotel for its buffet lunch not long ago. It's considered as a signature hotel in Penang. I feel honoured for being able to be there.

The grilled fish looks good but I missed the chance to taste one, it was snapped up so quick while I was busy taking photos

To my surprise, they also serve dim sum, and some colorful pao, mostly a-cup

Out of world innovation

Another masterpiece

To me, the best serving is the Char Koay Teow with zero pork oil, 2 thumbs up to them !!

But if i were to give rating to the overall food quality, i would probably give 6 out of 10, only 4 points if without the Char Koay Teow (:

Crabs and Scallops

I went for a buffet lunch at E&O Hotel, Penang
Managed to take a photo with a very friendly chef, and I imitated his hand sign

Out of all the things, this small platter of small crabs caught my attention


It's this small


about the size of a thumb


It's scallop also tiny


thin and tiny


No where near these scallops that i tried in other place many months ago.
Maybe tropical scallops tend to get hydrated more easily compared to 4 seasons countries.
