S'mores @ Home

Taken off Wikipedia: A s'more (sometimes spelled smore) is a traditional nighttime campfire treat popular in the United States and Canada consisting of a roastedmarshmallow and a layer of chocolate sandwiched between two pieces of graham cracker.

Made smores everyday for almost a week! Made mine with Jacobs crackers, chocolate pastilles, marshmallows and a whole lotta whipped cream.

YUMMY OMG.

JUST LOOK AT THAT.

Lunch @ Ye Olde Penang Coffee Shop & Cakes @ China House

Sorry folks I couldn't remember the name of the old coffee shop my dad took us during his lunch break. Was one of those rare occasions when the whole family went to the apparent CBD in Penang to lunch with pops. Above is the fried rice. Not bad, but not that great either.

You get the usual mix of prawns and spring onions.

We were here mostly for the highly acclaimed roti babi. 

Yes,you heard right. Pork bread. Hahaha. Looks like the traditional chun pheah, but it actually tastes more like a french toast with minced pork stuffing. Quite nice, to be honest. 

Lam Mee. My family finished this within minutes. Reminded me of the same dish we get back home in Sitiawan. The gravy was so fragrant you can't help but slurp it off your plate. Plenty of chicken slices and veggies in there as well.

China House. I've heard many rave reviews about the place from Mom and friends and we finally came here for dessert. My dad had his mandatory 'after lunch' cappucino.

Of course we indulged in a couple of sweet treats. What would the world be like without cakes?
Above is the chocolate cake. Sinful to the last bite.

Italian cake. I loved this one, because of all the walnuts and cream cheese. Much like a carrot cake, but less dense. Mom didn't like this one though. Strange.

And the highlight of the three: tiramisu. Layers and layers of heaven. A must-try from China House. Need I say more?
