[Satay Garden]
Yeah this picture's kinda weird. From the inside, the words should be flipped. That's coz I took the picture from inside and flipped it on photoshop. Just coz I was too lazy to go to the other side of the restaurant to take the picture.
Bno, Diane and I decided to check out the new Malaysian restaurant in the village; Satay Garden. It opened yesterday. It looks really pretty on the outside. And it's uber bright inside. Lol Diane said she didn't like their chairs. They were really green.
I just tried their curry puff. Pretty good. =) Bno ordered their "Pork Rib Soup" which is actually "Bah-Kut-Teh". He also got a plate of Satay, rice and the whole deal. Rice, egg, peanuts, cucumber, peanut sauce. The lady decided she'd give us 2 extra chicken satays since there were 3 of us.
Ordering was very very awkward. You can tell they're first time restaurant owners. And I assume they're malaysian coz it's definitely different from being in a Vietnamese place or chinese place. They have a very small menu. It's got 4-5 items on it along with some drinks and desserts. But what I realized is they change their menu everyday. Which is pretty cool. So that way there are basically specials every day to start with and maybe when business picks up they'll have a full menu.
So yea, while you guys are in Ipoh eating your real malaysian food, I'm having my share of the "Canadianized" version of it.
