I'm Back! .. to.. Miss Saigon	Post a Comment
Sorry for away for so long... :-) Within this 6 months, I changed two new jobs. This was not a pleasant experience but now I know better what I really want. During this 6 months time, frankly I just do not have mood to write anything about food. All the food that I ate is either tasteless or I was rushing.. that's the reason why I didn't write anything about them. I'm sorry for those that visited my website. I really don't feel like writing anything in the past few months with all the changes took placed. Finally.. thing gets better now. I finally in the mood to write something. I found out Ms. Saigon from somebody's food blog. Penang doesn't have any Vietnamese food. Ms. Saigon surprised me. I wouldn't able to compare their food with the original Vietnamese food but.. I think they tasted great! Part of the reasons.. maybe is the "tauke soh" that serving customers in the restaurant - she walked in her style, and talked in her style and served customer with pride. She is a "special" tau ke soh.. :-) Vietnamese food to me, is about their rice paper spring roll and pho. This time I didn't order any of them but the glass noodle below that looks like Laksa noodle salad. I know what you are thinking.. ya.. right.. it looks very plain and shouldn't taste good, right? I thought so until I tried it. The gravy is made of lemongrass juice and other ingredient - it's sourish and refreshing. I love eating it with the mint leaves and because of this dish... I keep coming back to Ms. Saigon. I think this should be one of their signature dish! (But I realized that they have changed the chicken meat from thigh to breast meat recently.. :-(.. not as good as before anymore) Eel Cake is one of their promotional items. You might not able to get it anymore when you go there but it's alright. I don't really taste the eel in it. So.. forget about it. You could try something better and tell us! Lastly, this is a must try!! Apple Pie served in such a presentable manner! I love it! The apple slices looked like rose and the pastry below is so thin and oil free! The combination of it with the chocolate sauce is just perfect! If they could think of a way for me to eat it in one shot will be even better because I would have to mess it up while eating it. Well.. I just don't feel like doing so because it just look like a masterpiece of dessert!
