Cafe | Chez Nous

I actually stumbled upon this cafe months ago. But, it was not opened for walk-ins that time as it was two days before their opening. So, one of the Saturdays I went back again to try out their brunch w/ Chen after seeing people started to post in instagram.

 Chez Nous is a word originated from French which means 'At our house / our place'.

They have weekly rotating menus. Food styles are more on asian fusion, french, italian, sandwiches etc.

Very clean and simple interior.

Le boss loves turquoise color which explains everything painted / decorated in turquoise. Ahh, one of my favourite colors, too :D


They have variety of great drinks like Belgian and local beers, Vietnamese and Italian coffee, Chinese and Sri Lanka teas



Cozy environment for an afternoon tea

German Farmer RM20
Rating: 8.5/10
Personally love German Farmer the most. The potatoes and scrambled eggs taste soo good together. However, the bread was hard for me. lol. Maybe, we locals are more used to eating soft breads eyh. The boss offered me extra breads which is more soft but I paiseh-ly declined lah cuz I was too full to stuff anything in!

We had a short conversation with the owner, Philippe and his wife, Liz and got to know Philippe is from Belgium and Malaysia is the 14th country they decided to stay put in at the moment :O They have shared with us some lovely countries they have visited too.

Lastly, a picture w/ the friendly and chatty boss. And, me looking very happy here. lol

Cafe | Brown Pocket

Ohaiiyoo December!! Last month of the year alreadyy, pwease be good! Finally gotten back my baby white from repairing, and immediately brought it to chikchiak. 

Went to Chez Nous for brunch and Brown Pocket for desserts just yesterday. Will blog about Chez Nous later cuz fewer pics taken for Brown Pocket so I can blog a very short and quick one! ngehe 

The cafe serves mainly liege waffles, crepes, summer desserts and coffee.

Cozy environment and nice interior, but the selection of desserts are limited. Perhaps, more options will be added in the menu soon as they are still new?



Red Valentine RM16.90

Why are strawberries forever so 'photogenic' haa!? I realized all the food presentation confirm turn out well with the presence of strawberries geh. Agree, no? Speaking of their waffles, they tasted fine but a bit overrated. 

Nutty Banana Smoothie  RM13.90

Gala House Restaurant & Cafe

Have been quite caught up lately, didn't really have time to blog :/ Had one week break but it was fully utilized with plans, good thing eyh? So talking about last Friday, with the Penang bloggers gang, we had a farewell dins with Constance, whom will be leaving to her hometown for good. Constance can be said to be my second blogger friend that I've known in Penang. Seriously I will be missing her loads when attending events as a great companion! She has/always been a nice friend/sister to us.  

Well, Henry suggested Gala House to dine in that night, which all of us have never been before (previously was Soul Kitchen). Considered quite new lahh

Kimchii Salmon Spaghetti RM24

It could be better if the kimchii taste stronger?  

Caeser Salad RM9.90
Rating: 8.5/10
The salad is great!

Grilled Salmon RM28.90
Rating: 8.5/10
I personally like this dish the most! I usually eat only fresh salmons as grilled ones normally won't turn out nice. But, grilled salmon of gala's unexpectedly tasted fine! Some of them complaint it's abit salty though. For me, it's ok :) 

Lamb RM38

Gala's Steak
I can't rate, cuz I rarely take beef.

Complimentary cheesecake by the super nice boss for Ant!


Classic Bolognese RM16
Rating: 7.5/10

Overall, the main complaint is the indoor dining area is a lil bit warm and not-so-well ventilated. Maybe because of the narrow spaces. Otherwise, the workers are very friendly and the food was good too.

With the 女主角 main character of the night, Ant <3 All the best in your future undertakings! 

Polaroids.  

After din, chill out session at the Library.  
Just realised, we're so happened to wear monotone that night. hehe

Went to Wentze's birthday party right after that. My fridaysss had been pretty happening for the past three weeks. That's why I love Friday ! teehee :D
