Penang - Macalister Mansion

Travel - Penang March 2015 


Day 3 in Penang, decided to take walks around Georgetown, wanting to explore Macalister Mansion and have lunch at the Living Room, the upbeat boutique hotel designed for the modern and sophisticated lifestyle. The building was restored from a British Colonial Mansion build from the early 1900s. Each space is distinctively designed and branded in the Mansion - The Living Room, The Dining Room, The Cellar, The Den, The Lawn. There are only 8 Rooms in this hotel.
The Entrance to Macalister Mansion, at first was not sure if 
this is the right placeas it look like a rich man's Mansion 
till I saw that head sculpture

TWG's French Earl Grey

Have you ever thought of why TWG tea taste better in cafes, hotel and TWG salons? Guess must be that special Pot from TWG and with the right temperature of hot water. The fragrance of the Tea just loses the sensation when its made at home did u realise it.... ? This Pot of TWG 'French Earl Grey' is RM $20.00.


Beautiful tiles

Have you ever been asked before like how do you know if its "French" on this Earl Grey? and How do you know if its "Moroccan" on Moroccan Mint? Didnt know how to answer because these question are  so "ah ... Duh".... It is just so heart breaking and disappointing to hear when these questions was asked. 

Lets move on to things that makes life worth living. The Set Lunch ! 
The 3 course Set Lunch RM $48.00. OMG!!!! 

Salad - Watermelon & Tempura Soft Shelled Crab,
Salad with Sesame Vinaigrette. Bread with mashed olive paste
Love the mashed Olive Paste spread on to the bread, simple and delicious.


Mains - Baked Barramundi with Curry Puree & Crispy Okra.
The crispy Okra with the curry puree is so favourful.

3 Mini cakes - Toffee Caramel, Beetroot Mousse and Chocolate

My personal favorites of mini cakes comes with lemon butter ice cream. Savoury with TWG's French Earl grey tea. This is what life is worth living for, to be able to taste the most favoursome and experience such beauteous creation. Beautiful combination.

Penang - Family Day Tour

Travel - Penang March 2015  Day 1 This was my 2nd time to Penang after 8 years, Penang has changed alot since the last time I was there. The Penang now has become more modernised with numerous upbeat cafes, yet its maintaining the nostalgic feel with collections from the old cultures through the streets in Georgetown.  After the Pinang Peranakan Museum, I was very interested in the doors and corridors old tiles from the streets in Georgetown. Hope these nostalgic sights will be around still through the years. Had arranged for a 14 seater Private Van to bring us around on a Penang 9 hours tour, its was very travel friendly with family and no rush as we had 3 elderly, 4 adults and 5kids on this trip.
