Halal Chinese Food

They have a new offer on weekdays: Bento Sets for just $13.80+! I chose the Salted Egg Yolk Chicken Set and it comes with tangy tom yum soup, rice, sunny side up, and sago gula melaka. Add $1 for a refreshing iced lemon tea;) The salted egg yolk chicken tasted decent with the very mild salted egg yolk taste. I enjoyed the sago gula melaka (kinda tastes like Kuih Lopes)-what a refreshing treat! We also had the Chilli Prawn Pasta (12.80+) and IT WAS SOOO GOOD! So creamy and indulgent. Not at all overwhelming because of the spicyness. Still, it would be better if they had peeled the prawns too haha. Looks like STREATS’ revamped menu is looking promising!😉

For dessert, a trip to Penang Culture is never complete without a bowl of Cendol right? We had the King of Cendol ($6.95): the basic cendol with a scoop of durian. Unsurprisingly, it was too sweet but I like that they had kidney beans instead of red beans—it gave the dessert a ‘lighter’, more balanced taste. Always a delight to dine here!🍜😋

What’s the perfect food to eat on a rainy day? For me, it has to be something soupy! I needed a little pick-me-up because I’ve been feeling under the weather lately and I found myself with a piping hot bowl of Penang Assam Laksa ($7.95) at @penangculturesg. I’ve always wanted to try Assam Laksa and it certainly did not disappoint—although I just found out Assam Laksa’s only meat consists of Sardines which I’m not a huge fan of. Still, the broth was flavourful and palatable. Note that it’s pretty spicy! The White Curry Mee with Seafood ($8.95) was simply amazing and tasted almost similar to a bowl of Singaporean Laksa. I couldn’t help slurping the soup cus it was just SO good! We requested for no cockles and were substituted with chicken instead (how nice!).

ALWAYS GET THEIR AROMATIC GARLIC EGG FRIED RICE!!! You will not regret it—true to its name, it’s so fragrant and delicious but small portions though! I also enjoyed their Crispy Squid & their Peking Duck roll/wrap (not in picture sorry). Others are safe choices like Duck Cha Shu Bun, Molten Custard Bun, Siew Mai, Shrimp Dumpling & Seafood Chee Cheong Fan. The food was truly good (& my Chinese SIL can vouch for it!) but I just wish they would serve gradually and not all at once because we actually felt very stressed trying to eat quickly before the dim sums get cold... nevertheless, definitely worth a visit but do note that the food is pretty pricey so it’s best for family gatherings since you can try more items!😋

The last time I came here was a year ago and i’m glad that they maintained their standard! Finally got to try their Boxing Chicken and it was flavourful. The chicken is essentially drumstick and they just ‘push’ the meat from the thinner end towards the fatter part😋

Generous servings of Seafood Fried Rice ($6), Chicken Fried Rice ($5), HK Hor Fun ($6), SG Fried Bee Hoon ($6). The Lemon Chicken ($10) was delicious too! The Hotplate Beancurd ($15) was a little bland but came with generous amount of chicken and shrimps. Overall a satisfying experience for a quick halal tze char meal!

Variety of typical dim sums, including Duck bun ($4.90) very satisfying! Do make reservations!
