Mr.Pot Cafe Along Gurney Drive (Georgetown)

I have heard from a friend that there is a new cafe in town. He recommended that I try it since he's been there and enjoyed the food. He was actually refering to Mr. Pot cafe which is located along Persiaran Gurney. Last Saturday morning, we crammed ourselves into two cars and made our way there. It was such a relief when we reached Mr.Pot since the kids were all restless and blabbing non stop in the car. Tranquility at last! The food will keep them distracted for a while.

While waiting for our food, I decided to take a look at the menu again. A great selection of sandwiches and toasted bread. They even got boiled eggs too.

Hey, they have got catchy menus. Perhaps this one is appropriate for our PM. If I were in his shoes, I'll be really depressed too!

We are concerned with your intake of fatty oil. I don't think so. I also see belacan chicken in this menu......

This one is suitable for those partying the whole night. Light and refreshing.

Who says that if you are fat you can't enjoy food? I'm already salivating over the burger.

They also serve an assorted variety of cocktails and hard liquors.

Finally, our toasted bread and sandwiches arrived. I managed to take a few shots before they quickly disappeared.

I had the ice coffee. Strong and kau (thick).

Mr.Pot is an equivalent to an upscale trendy cafe. Be prepared to pay more than your ordinary cafe. Having said this, it's comfortable and the ambience is great since it's located by the beach front. While the food we ordered were quite ordinary, it made this up by providing a nice spread of choices. An excellent place to chill out after work or during the weekends.

Summer Cafe at I-Avenue (Bukit Jambul)

Last evening we decided that we had enough of home cooked meal and agreed to eat out. We wanted to give the wok and oven a rest. We had a couple of choices but we ultimately settled on Summer Cafe. It's situated at I-Avenue shoplot which is close to the Bukit Jambul complex. The location is perfect for us since we did'nt want to drive all the way to town.

We were at the cafe before 6pm to beat the crowd and practically booked the whole cafe. You really cannot blame us for being this kiasu because this cafe can be quite crowded even on weekdays. It's located close to Bayan Lepas and a lot of factory folks do dine here. We decided we couldn't afford to any risks. I suggest you do the same if you do go there next time.

The menu offers an interesting selection of hand made noodles, salads and rice to choose from. The same goes for beverages and desserts.

A picture speaks a thousand words!

We had the garlic chicken rice and tomato egg chicken rice. Both were good.

.....and vegetable soup.....

Summer Cafe is great if you like simple food. There's absolutely nothing complex or fancy about the food here and it offers good selection too. However, do prepare to wait for your meals during peak hours. I suggest that you pack some biscuits with you when you come here. You will thank me for this!
