Fort Cornwallis

Few more days till graduation! If you ask me if I'm excited or feeling sad and reluctant to leave I couldn't give you a proper answer as I myself don't understand myself either but as time getting lesser I'm having more gathering and meeting up friends I don't usually meet. And also trying more and more food, cafe and stall in Penang. More food photos on my Instagram while this is an overdue post, one month back? 

Insisted on posting this article as this is that one place I would love to highly recommend people who visited Penang not only for their street food but for a little luxuriously dining experience on Malaysia food.

The place would be Kota Cornwallis! Their food is really really good, agreed by my friends too. They served local food in dining style. I and my friend really love their food, the way they cooked it, the dish they used, the arrangement of the food, the taste and even the smell of it. Below are our order, nyonya, laksa, tandoori and creme brulee.
Nyonya and laksa (each RM25)

You can see from the photo above, nyonya is presented on the left and laksa is presented on the right. I particularly like the laksa as the presentation of it is unique! They serve with six rolls of laksa noodles each with prawn, some cucumber slice, pineapple chunks wrap with rice paper and two fried version of crispy wrap not sure what's that made of but taste good which is juicy inside and crispy on the outside. The broth came with it is also flavorful with prawn scent. Who had thought of this, the combination is brilliant! The nyonya taste good too. It's arranged by layer served with base of otak, blue flower dyed coconut rice in the middle and topped with achar and rendang chicken. Last but not least the tandoori dish below. It served with two pieces of tandoori (it's hiding under the papadum) and two fried dumpling filling with lamb meat. The small little green thing there is a small bit piece of yoghurt.
Tandoori (RM29)
Creme Brulee (RM19)

I love this too! So so smooth. Each creme brulee served with different flavours and all three are great to me! But my friends commented that the gula melaka ones is too sweet for them. Anyway, I'm surprised with the original ones where you find black glutinous rice at the bottom and they matched perfectly with each others.
Flavour: Original with black glutinous rice, Pandan and Gula Melaka

Oops, not to forget that you need to pay for an entrance fee of RM10 for Mykad holder to enter the Fort. It will be slightly more expensive for non-Malaysian. Anyway, you will get a rebate of RM10 if your bill exceeds RM20, it's a great deal :) Remember to keep the receipt and show it to the waiter when you are about to pay your bill. In another way, you get to visit Fort for free! Embrace the history. Anyway, some night they do have performance and so, you might need to check for their event online.

And that's all for food, now people and selfie time!








Ending this post with our entrance ticket. Spot my charm bracelet *wink*
