Food and board games..Oh what fun! - Part 1

So, it was 2012's Deepavali and it was smack right in the middle of the week.
Since I am unable to go back to my hometown, and DH was back at his hometown, I stayed put here in Penang and spent an awesome day with my cell group members.

Initially we wanted to try out ECCO Restaurant in Georgetown but it was closed. So we ended up at Sun Yoon Kee Restaurant at Cintra Street, recommended by JJ.

Food was delicious, and portion was just nice.

Pork spare ribs (RM 12)

Stir-fry kailan with garlic (RM 8)

Just look at those mouth-watering prawns....nom nom!

Sun Yoon Kee's signature tofu (RM 10)

Salted vegetable and duck soup has always been my favourite. My family has this soup every Chinese New Year, and those days (many years ago) we used to have 2 bowls of rice to go with this soup.

Sun Yoon Kee's salted vegetable-duck soup is rather on the sourish side, but I kinda like it. There are peppercorns in the soup which brings out the flavour of the soup.

Salted vegetable and duck soup(Kiam Chai ark) - RM 14

 Before we ordered the dishes, JJ told us that Sun Yoon Kee is famous for their siu bak (roast pork).
Indeed so..the outer part of the siu bak is crispy whereas the meat is tender and juicy.

Siu bak and Char Siu (RM 16)

 This was the last dish we ordered, and we thought that we had ordered fish alone, but to our surprise this came with hor fun. According to the boss, this is their signature dish. I felt that the fish slices were tasteless (saltless). Good thing the gravy balanced up the entire dish..

Fried fish with hor fun (RM 20)

The total bill came up to RM 89 (including 5 bowls of rice and 1 refillable pot of tea). Cheap cheap!

If you want to pay a visit to this restaurant, here's the address:
