CNY [Horse Year 2014]


Horse year, my year ♥ 

Owning only few days for CNY holiday, every moments deserved to be an important event. And these would be my power reservoir to become a better me in the new year.
Get a brand new outfit for the brand new year ♥ 
Reunion dinner on the preceding day with family.
The warmness that should never be missed.
Red packet "angpao" from parents for good luck.
Not forgetting to go around to get more angpao from other adults! This is the best chance to get extra pocket money. Hee~

Yu Sheng (tossed raw fish salad) on the 7th day, for continued wealth and prosperity.
Jade Emperor ritual prayer after the mid-night on the 8th day.
The day is more important than the first day for Hokkiens.
Fireworks, celebrations and good food~ 
♥ 
And of course, gatherings of family and friends!

Tomyummy Noodles House 东炎不败 @ Perak Road, Penang


Tom Yum Noodles with Fried Fish Slice and Green Salad
I'm a Tom Yum lover.

I'm blessed with the growing chains of restaurant selling good Tom Yum all around Penang. I would never miss to taste each of them. Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ

This is the first branch of the restaurant. The restaurant features an open kitchen with an attached counter placing the fresh food. There are a great variety of noodles and sides to be chosen. The mix-and-match becomes so trendy these days uh~

Tom Yum Ramen with Bacon, Bean Curd Sheets and Green Salad.
I would love to highlight their soup. The soup base is thick, spicy and savory. I guess their extraordinary soup base is what outweighs them from other restaurants and stalls. I'm particularly in love with the bacon. Bacon + Tom Yum soup would be the reason for my next visits. For the fried fish slices, I'm not in a flavor of them. My best fried fish slices of choice would still be from the humble stall near the Queensbay mall. 

Price-wise, it depends on what you add. You can get a bowl of noodles from RM 5 to RM 20.

Taste-wise, I would say that it is at the rate of higher than average.


I dined in at a late hour. I didn't want my supper to be too heavy with such a large portion. I requested for a small bowl and here it goes! So cute! 

Things go irresistible when Tom Yum comes in. Slurps~
