Teluk Kumbar Seafood

Okay... 2 weekends in a row. Seafood, seafood and more seafood! So where did I go to this time around? Teluk Kumbar, south of Penang island, somewhere in between Bayan Lepas and Balik Pulau area. You will never know there's such a place there admist so many Malay Kampung's around. If you drive by the place and you don't look around, probably you will miss it on the fly. Thanks to Cindy's family coming to Penang, the past weekends has been nothing but rather eventful one. This place was eventually recommended to me by Hui Koon and Choon Guan a long time ago.

What can I tell you all about this place? It's a seaside restaurant with lots of fishing boats anchored around. It's a very calm area whereby you can eventually hear the sea slapping the shores while you can see airplanes made their approach to the Penang International Airport that's not too far away from this place.

Mom and Cindy being hard at work choosing the right amount of seafood to serve for 11 hungry stomachs.

I managed to order some Satay where it disappears from the plate on a fly! 30 sticks isn't going to cut it. So we backordered another 20 just to ensure everyone had enough of it. The Satay is really mouth-watering as you can see it. The Satay sauce is covered thoroughly on the Satay itself, making it rather irresistable. 70 cents for each stick, now where can you go find such delicious Satay that only offers plenty of chicken meat and not the fat?

A generous serving of deep fried squid... my favourite!

Cockles that has gone through steaming and served.

Fried Lai Liu Ha (a type of prawns) covered with egg.

Chuk Than stirred fried with charlotte and ginger.

Fried La La Kam Heong style (spicy style).

Deep fried Man Tou buns that goes very well with the Spicy Crab.

Prawns steamed with salt.

And of course, fried noodles.

There's actually more dishes served on the table than what you have seen on the pictures posted here. I was too busy indulging myself with these scrumptious food til I forgot to snap more pictures. The food is really nice, I'm giving this place a Rating 8 out of 10. Everyone walked away happily after meal, only to realize that tonight from 8:30pm to 9:30pm, its the Earth Hour. As we made our way home, we tried to look around if the Penang state did it's part to save the planet. Most of the national monuments turned off its lights; much to our delight that our government does care about the current global warming crisis.
