Makan : When Francis Meet Rempah

We stayed back in Penang last raya cos we just too lazy to head back to Subang .

So one of the activity we did during raya is to dine at Kota Dine which located inside Fort Conrnwallis. 

We went during lunch time .

To enter the restaurant you have to pay entrance ticket RM20(MY Card) adult which remember to keep the receipt where it will be use to deduct the bill. 

 We went at 3pm and still pretty crowded .

 We ordered one set lunch RM59++ and one ala carte meal

 One of the reason to visit this place is they are famous for their unique dessert

 Appetizer from the set : kerabu mango salad , pie tie and chicken rendang

 Ordered chicken rendang which is think taste so so only

 Nasi lemak wrap - taste ok only .... maybe coz the sambal taste the same as the rendang sambal

 This is the best dessert tiramisu ... filled with gula melaka coconut spinkles and pandan ...serve with kopi-o on the side... really yummy

 total bill came up to RM100 ...

 The fort was under renovation so we took some pics and balik . Especially when the weather is so freaking hot .

Travel Europe 2017 : Mercato Centrale , Central Market of Florence

First thing we did when we reach Florence is to get an ice cream. 

We stop by La Carraia which is located next to the florence bridge. 

See the line ..so long leh 

each of us got an ice cream - $3.50 .... pretty huge

So beautiful postcard view

After ice cream we walk over to Mercato Centrale which took around 30 mins stroll .

Outside Mercato ... there are small stalls selling leather bags ..
We did not look at anything as worried that might be fake

the ground floor market was close so we head upstairs to the food court

they sell lots of foods and this is one of them

fresh seafoods which you can select and get the chef to cook for you

beautiful desserts are also sold here

The next day , we went out early to visit their ground floor market which is mostly selling raw materials such as spices , meat , olive oils , fresh pasta

Brought back lots of spices ...

fresh habanero ....

locally made anchovies

brought balsamic vinegar from here too

homemade bread for sale too and they are huge ...and they sell as per piece and not cut in half .
People here eat lots of bread.

mom was hungry and ended up went to the foodcourt upstairs to makan.
She got sick of ah moh food so she ordered from this chinese stall - some vege rolls .

ordered this ...
