Fruit Rojak - MYR6.90 (prices are nett) - jicama, pineapple, umbra or ambarella (kedondong), cucumber and surprisingly cuttlefish in crushed peanuts and shrimp paste sauce. Very tasty.
Original chendul - MYR4.90 - we requested for the palm sugar to be served separately so that we can put just enough to get a slight sweetness only. For an additional fee, one can choose to have ice cream or durian or chempedak (Artocarpus integer) added to the chendul.
It was early, way before lunch time so there were no customers yet.
We also stumbled upon Coffee and Art Fringe Festival Asia (CAFFA 2014) at Publika where there are about 10 stalls offering free coffee tasting but we do not like crowds so we did not taste any coffee there.
Any good? They sure are pricey though. Wonder how much the original actually costs in Penang.
ReplyDeleteYes, tasty enough. That we have to ask RealGunners to find out for us - how much the original costs in Penang now.
Deletehaha....Penang Road Teowchew chendul...I last had it 2 years ago...long queue under the hot sun and crowds!
DeleteI cannot stand the hot sun and long queue so would rather pay more to eat in their new shops in kl.
DeleteEh? The signboard looks not the same. I know the sons franchised the whole thing, but the original franchise's signboard seems different. I wonder if this is ciplak one or they redesigned their signboard.
ReplyDeleteFor the best cendol, still go back to the original stall :D
I guess they redesign gua. You can go ask them when you go to their original stall. Not in Penang, how to go to the original roadside stall? But then it is more comfortable to eat in this new outlets.
DeleteTak cukup kenyang ahh after the party? But the food is 'sik song' (eat for fun) only, not heavy, so I think I can also load in some rojak and cendol after a light party lunch geh... I love my cendol with extra gula melaka... Yummmzzz
ReplyDeleteChildren party so did not fight with children for the food, hehehehe. Yes, the gula melaka is very important for cendol.
DeleteOMG, the rojak is making me salivate :)
ReplyDeleteYou can have the authentic Penang Rojak in Penang! So lucky! :)
DeleteOh man. I feel like eating rojak now.
ReplyDeleteI dont drink coffee so I will definitely not go into that crowd :D
Not even a single drop of coffee? Fruit rojak is really easy to eat and very appetising too. I also want to eat it now.
DeletePrice is quite reasonable for Publika. Looks good too! Wow this place is really happening. I used to know the food outlets pretty well while I was working there, but just a year on and there are so many new places.
ReplyDeleteYes this place seems to be the in-place now.
DeletePublika is always an interesting place to hang out for all generations. I only dislike their parking lot layout which seems odd and unfriendly.
ReplyDeleteI went to this Teowchew Chendul outlet once at Sunway. Are they the same?
Their Assam Laksa is okay but Ah Cheng's Laksa is the best.
True, their parking lot is not as nice as Ikea's. Yes the same. You can see all the outlets here
