Dinner at Tomyam Udang Restaurant and Ghee Seng Tomyam Seafood Restaurant

Tomyam has always been our favourite list of food. So we planned to have dinner at Tomyam Udang restaurant on 4.8.2012.

Restorant Tomyam Udang is located at Jalan Gelugur, Jelutong, Penang.

This restaurant offers Malay cuisine. The majority of diners are still Malay. We were the only "native" chinese at the restaurant.

Stir-fried Chicken with Cashewnuts & Dried Chili. Ayam Goreng Gajus in Malay. Medium plate. It costs RM9.00.

Stir-Fried Kailan with Salted Fish. Kailan Ikan Masin in Malay. Small plate. It costs RM5.00.

It looks appetizing. 

Fried fish with three-flavored sauce. Ikan Siakap Tiga Rasa. It costs RM25.00. Deep fried to perfection.

Tomyam Udang in medium plate. It costs RM11.00. 

Stir-fried eggs with onion. Telur Goreng Bawang. One of our favourite home cooked meal. Medium plate. It costs RM3.80.

Sotong Goreng Tepung. Fried Squid with Flour. Small plate. The squid is deep fried and crispy with flour batter. It costs RM6.

The mainstay of every Malaysian meal is rice. As we had ordered variety of dishes to share, we needed to order more rice. 

Malay traditional dishes are excellent for working up the appetite. We plan to try more Malay cuisine on our next food journey.
