Auntie Gaik Lean's Nyonya Food

Father's day around the corner. We decided to treat our father with his favourite food - Nyonya style meal. In Penang, it is not uncommon to find many Nyonya style restaurant especially around heritage area. Many of these food outlet are serving equally delicious and authentic Nyonya food which can't find any where else in this planet :)

















We had chosen Auntie Gaik Lean's cooking today, which located near Lebuh Bishop, near Georgetown area. The restaurant decoration is full of nolstalgic items like old bicycle, bikes, lamps etc. It is very hard not to notice this unique place beside the main road.

The food is awesome, to us its almost on-par to my grandmother's cooking :p and best of all, my family likes the dishes and they had enjoy this meal together.
Here is what we had ordered:-

Loh Bak - Crispy fritters with chicken/pork mixture served with special Chilli source. Must Try! It was served hot right after it is ready. 
Otak-Otak - famous fish cakes. We can still see the fish flakes inside this dish as we dig in. Something that we don't get if ordered in other places.

Prawn cooked with Asam - sweet and sour taste with prawns served with Sambal. The prawns are fresh!
Fried Chicken Nyonya Style - crunchy and flavourful. Its extra tasteful with the dip sauce.
Chicken with bitter guard - tastefully prepared with carrots slices.
Goo Leng Peng - Sweet drinks mix with milk. My favourite drink since childhood.

Overall, the food is great and served in 10 mins after ordered. I definitely will come back to try out other dishes like curry fish, kerabu rice, any mor chip chicken and many more....

P/S: I had lost my receipt but overall these set of meals cost only RM120 + which is value for money.
