Ko Fu Loft @ Penang Gurney Plaza

Ko Fu Loft has a big banner in the main hall of Gurney Plaza. If you are taking the escalator, you will be able to see it. I have the chance to go for a food review together with all the food bloggers, thanks to Jian and Criz. If I am not mistaken, we have more than 20 people.

Let’s start with the Appetizers.

Ko Fu Sesame Seed Ball (RM10.90)
Taste normal. The minced meat is mixed with mushroom.

Crystal Spring Roll Skin Stuff with Vege & Chicken Meat (RM6.90)
If you just eat it without the sauce, it is tasteless. With the sauce, it makes it better. This appetizer can get in most of the restaurant. One of them that I can remember is the Miss Saigon in Egate.

Main Course

Fried Seafood Emperor Noodle (RM12.90)
The noodle looks tempting. However, it is just for the look. The noodle is tasteless. I never think of adding soy sauce and test it out. Maybe with soy sauce, it will be better?

Deep Fried Homemade Bean Curd (RM12.90)
Normal dish. A bit oily but not bad.

Deep Fried Five Spices Calamari (RM13.90)
Another normal dish. Nothing special.

Jindo Pork Ribs (RM14.90)
I like this Pork Ribs. Taste good due to the pepper? Anyway, nice!

Szechuan Aromatic Duck (RM18.90)
Many felt that the meat is a bit dry. It is OK to me. I recommended to put some sauce and wrapped with the egg slices before you put into your mouth.

All in 1 Roasted Meat with Vegetables
This is the so call “Pun Choi”. The taste is weird. But, on other tables, it seems to be great since some of them like it. I would suggest to have the same serving for all diners. If not, some table will not like it (like ME) and some table will like it (Allie and Steven).

The prawn is not fresh and the abalone is too dry. Luckily, the presentation looks nice.

Dim Sum

Steamed Fresh Prawn Dumpling – Har Kau (RM5.50)
It has 3 prawns. Oh…. I love it.

img_8163

Minced Squid with Crab Claw Meat (RM6.90)
This dim sum is a bit not fresh. Many of us are having the same perception.

img_8169

Pork Dumpling with Fish Roes – Siew Mai (RM5.50)
Siew Mai in Ko Fu Loft is a bit special to me. From the look, it is exactly the same as what we find in other dim sum restaurant. However, if you bite on it, you will notice that the Siew Mai has prawn and mushroom, on top of the pork. Nice.

img_8174

Signature Steamed Custard Creamy Bun (RM5.50)
Another nice dim sum. The Custard Creamy Bun is really creamy. I’m loving it.

img_8167

Deep Fried Pandan Lotus Paste Dumpling (RM4.50)
One word, nice.

img_8194

Deep Fried Yam Paste with Minced Pork (RM4.50)
From the outside to the inside, it is same from other restaurant. However, another thumbs up dim sum from Ko Fu Loft.

Dessert

Dessert of the Day (RM3.50)
If you were there, you can see Cariso’s expression when she first drink this dessert. In fact, everyone is also having the same expression on the first taste. It tastes weird. Inside the dessert, it contains water chestnut and sago. If you continue eating, it becomes better.

After the food eating session, the chefs post in front of the restaurant and let us take the photos.

Every food blogger is getting one RM5 Voucher, valid till 30th June. Maybe I will use it to get the Signature Steamed Custard Creamy Bun. LOL.

img_8252

Overall, the dim sum is definitely the best among all dishes that we tried. I like them! For the main course, improvement is needed. This is only applicable to me. Maybe you will like those dishes, since all of us have different taste bud. Furthermore, there are still a lot of dishes in the menu that we never tried. So, if you like Chinese cuisine, you can try it out yourself.

2,482 thoughts on “Ko Fu Loft @ Penang Gurney Plaza

  1. Compared to the usual results for this kind of search this site stands well above the average, and a quick visit to bhvideo kept the standard high, you can tell within seconds whether a site is going to waste your time or actually deliver and this one clearly delivers without any false starts.

  2. Probably one of the more reliable sources I have found for this kind of careful coverage, and a look at dobt reinforced the reliability, the small group of sources I would describe as reliable for a given topic is curated carefully and this site has earned a place in that small group through consistent performance.

  3. Held my interest from the opening line through to the closing thought, and a stop at sjzb91d did the same, content that earns sustained attention in an environment full of distractions is doing something right and this site is clearly doing several things right rather than just one or two which I really appreciate.

  4. Now appreciating the way the post avoided the temptation to be longer than necessary, and a look at 2xrb7pd7 continued that lean approach, content with the discipline to stop when finished rather than padding for length is content that respects both itself and its readers and this site has that disciplined editorial culture clearly throughout.

  5. Saving this link for the next time someone asks me about this topic, and a look at focusmapping expanded what I will be sharing with them, this is the kind of resource that makes a real difference when you are trying to point a friend to something useful and reliable rather than generic marketing pages.

  6. Bookmarked the page and the homepage too because clearly there is more to explore here, and a quick stop at xiaofzgm only made that more obvious, this is the kind of place I want to dig through over a weekend rather than rushing through during a coffee break tomorrow morning before getting back to work.

  7. Found the post genuinely useful for something I was working on this week, and a look at a9334567 added more material I will reference, content that connects to my actual life and work rather than just being interesting in the abstract is the kind I will pay attention to and return to repeatedly.

  8. Just wanted to drop a quick note saying this was a useful read on a topic I have been circling, no fluff, and a stop at qkzgygoyegfyprd added a few extra points that fit the same simple style which makes the whole site feel coherent rather than thrown together by many different writers with different goals.

  9. Honestly impressed, did not expect to find this level of care on the topic, and a stop at syzbh4 cemented the impression, you can tell within the first few paragraphs whether a site is going to be worth the time and this one delivered on that early promise nicely throughout the rest of what I read.

  10. During a reading session that included several other sources this one stood out, and a look at hollycattail continued the standout quality, the side by side comparison of sources during research is a useful exercise and this site has been winning those comparisons for me consistently across multiple research sessions during the last week.

  11. Now wishing more sites covered topics with this level of care, and a look at iiiaegotuerbqld extended that wish across more subjects, the rarity of careful coverage on most topics is a problem and this site is one of the small antidotes to that broader pattern of casual or surface treatment of complex subjects.

  12. After reading several posts back to back the consistent voice across them is impressive, and a stop at 2arpd7 continued that voice consistency, sites that maintain a single coherent voice across many pieces by potentially many writers represent serious editorial discipline and this one has clearly developed the institutional consistency needed for that.

  13. Started believing the writer knew the topic deeply by about the second paragraph, and a look at lamdepcongvanesa reinforced that confidence, the speed at which a writer establishes credibility through their writing is a useful quality signal and this writer establishes it quickly and quietly without resorting to credential dropping or self promotion.

  14. Felt the post had been quietly polished rather than aggressively styled, and a look at dokomohikaritukiryoukinivc confirmed the same understated polish, sites whose quality reveals itself slowly rather than announcing itself loudly are the kind I trust more deeply because the trust is not based on first impressions of marketing but actual substance.

  15. Now placing this in the small category of sites whose updates I would actually want to know about, and a stop at pujckaprokazdeho confirmed that placement, the difference between sites I want to follow and sites I just consume from is real and this one has crossed into the active follow category from the casual consumption side.

  16. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a sensible take on this topic without the usual marketing nonsense, and a look at 2c9wvd kept that grounded approach going, sites that stay focused on serving readers rather than monetising every click are rare and this is clearly one of those rare ones I really appreciate finding.

  17. If you asked me to point to a recent positive sign for the open web this site would be near the top, and a stop at xinsjdh reinforced that designation, the few sites that serve as evidence the web can still produce quality independent content are precious and this one has clearly become one for me.

  18. Nice to see a post that does not try to overcomplicate the basics for the sake of looking smart, and once I looked at cardiotherapya the same direct tone was there too, which honestly makes a difference when you are short on time and want answers without long pointless intros.

  19. Better signal to noise ratio than most places I check on this kind of topic, and a look at yundizhi02 kept that going, every paragraph here carries something worth reading rather than padding out the page to hit some arbitrary length target that search engines reward but readers ignore as soon as they notice it.

  20. Glad I stumbled across this post, the explanations actually make sense without needing background knowledge to follow along, and after a stop at smspujcka the same was true there, no assumptions about the reader just clear writing that anyone can understand from the first line right through to the end.

  21. Now setting up a small reminder to revisit the site on a slow day, and a stop at hrg31 confirmed the reminder was a good idea, planning return visits is a small organisational act that signals trust in ongoing quality and this site has earned that planned return through consistent performance across the pieces I have read so far.

  22. If a friend asked me where to read carefully on the topic I would send them here without hesitation, and a look at momentumactivation confirmed the recommendation strength, the directness of my recommendation reflects how confident I am in the quality and this site has earned undiluted recommendations from me across multiple recent conversations actually.

  23. Felt like I was reading something written by someone who actually thinks about the topic rather than reciting it, and a look at crateranchor reinforced that impression, the difference between recited content and considered content is huge and this site clearly belongs to the latter category which I appreciate as a careful reader looking for substance.

  24. Generally I find the content on similar topics frustrating in specific ways and this post avoided all of them, and a look at thisisfreshdoamin continued that frustration free experience, content that sidesteps the standard failure modes of its genre is content with editorial awareness and this site has clearly studied what fails elsewhere consistently.

  25. Probably this is one of the better quiet successes on the open web at the moment, and a look at accommodatea reinforced that quiet success quality, sites that are doing well without making a noise about doing well are the sites I most respect and this one has clearly chosen the quiet success path consistently throughout.

  26. A nicely understated post that does not shout for attention, and a look at hrg31 maintained the same quiet quality, understatement is a stylistic choice that distinguishes serious writing from attention seeking writing and this site has clearly committed to the understated approach as a core editorial value rather than just a phase.

  27. Took a few notes from this post, the points are easy to remember without needing to come back and check, and a look at momentumactivation added a couple more, the kind of place that sticks in the memory long after the browser tab has been closed for the day which says a lot really.

  28. If I were to recommend a starting point for the topic this site would be near the top of my list, and a stop at travelchristian reinforced that recommendation status, the small list of starting point recommendations I keep for friends asking about topics is short and this site is now firmly on it.

  29. Better signal to noise ratio than most places I check on this kind of topic, and a look at boniforma kept that going, every paragraph here carries something worth reading rather than padding out the page to hit some arbitrary length target that search engines reward but readers ignore as soon as they notice it.

  30. Skipped the related links section thinking I had read enough and then came back to it later when curiosity got the better of me, and a stop at axhb confirmed I should have just read it first, every section of this site appears to deserve careful attention rather than skipping past lazily.

  31. Honestly impressed, did not expect to find this level of care on the topic, and a stop at hrg31 cemented the impression, you can tell within the first few paragraphs whether a site is going to be worth the time and this one delivered on that early promise nicely throughout the rest of what I read.

  32. Thank you for not assuming the reader already knows everything, the explanations meet me where I am, and a look at momentumactivation did the same, that consideration is what makes a site feel welcoming rather than gatekeepy which is sadly the default mood across the modern web today for most subjects covered.

  33. Came across this looking for something else entirely and ended up reading it through twice, and a look at brilliancesa pulled me deeper into the site than I planned, the writing has a way of holding attention without resorting to manipulative cliffhangers or vague promises that never get delivered later down the page.

  34. Solid value for anyone willing to read carefully, and a look at opq0yq extends that value across the rest of the site, this is the kind of place that rewards return visits rather than offering everything in a single splashy post and then leaving readers nothing to come back for later which is unfortunately common.

  35. Reading this slowly to give it the attention it deserved, and a stop at ujrainditasigyorskolcson earned the same slow read, choosing to read slowly is a small act of respect for content quality and very few sites earn that respect from me but this one did so without any explicit ask which is the cleanest way.

  36. Reading this confirmed that my time researching the topic in other places had not been wasted, and a stop at hollydragon extended the confirmation, when independent sources agree that is a useful signal and this site is one of the more reliable sources I have found for cross checking what I read elsewhere on similar subjects.

  37. Thanks for keeping the writing direct without losing the warmth that makes content feel human, and a stop at momentumactivation carried both qualities forward, balancing professionalism and personality is a rare skill and the writers here have clearly figured out how to consistently land it across many posts which I notice.

  38. The headings made navigating the post simple even when I needed to find a specific section quickly, and a look at hrg31 continued the same thoughtful structure, small details like clear headings show that someone is actually thinking about how the reader uses the page rather than just filling it for length alone.

  39. If I am being honest this is the kind of site I quietly hope my own work will someday resemble, and a stop at batinga extended that aspirational feeling, finding work that models what I want to produce is part of why I read carefully and this site has been performing that modelling function for me lately consistently.

  40. Looking at this from the perspective of someone tired of generic content the contrast is striking, and a look at accuratelya maintained that distinctive feel, sites with strong editorial identity stand out against the bland background of algorithmic content and this one has clearly developed an identity worth recognising through careful attention.

  41. Liked the natural conversational tone throughout, never stiff and never overly casual either, and a stop at k842 kept that comfortable middle ground going, finding a tone that respects the reader without becoming distant or overly familiar is harder than it sounds and this site nails that balance consistently across many different pieces.

  42. Picked up on several small touches that suggest a careful editor, and a look at joker36 suggested the same hand at work across the broader site, editorial consistency at a granular level is one of the strongest signs that an operation is serious rather than just hobbyist and this site reads as serious throughout.

  43. Picked up something useful for a side project, and a look at kkjjyy56 added another piece I will incorporate, content that connects to specific projects I am working on is content with practical utility and the practical utility of this site is showing up across multiple posts I have read in the last hour or so.

  44. Granted I am giving this site more credit than I usually give new finds, and a look at abridgea continued earning that credit, the calibration of how much trust to extend after limited exposure is something I do carefully and this site has earned more trust on shorter exposure than most due to consistent quality across.

  45. I really like how the writer keeps the tone friendly without sounding fake or overly polished, and after a stop at firkit the same calm pace was there, no rushing to make a point and no padding either, just clean honest writing that I can respect and come back to later again.

  46. If you scroll past this site without looking carefully you will miss something, and a stop at onlu extended that mild warning, the surface of the site does not advertise its quality loudly which means careful attention is required to recognise what is being offered here which is itself a kind of editorial signal.

  47. В этой статье мы рассматриваем разрушительное влияние зависимости на жизнь человека. Обсуждаются аспекты, такие как здоровье, отношения и профессиональные достижения. Читатели узнают о необходимости обращения за помощью и о путях к восстановлению.
    Только для своих – принудительное лечение от алкоголя

  48. Now thinking about how this post will age over the coming years, and a stop at s0022 suggested the same durability, content built to age well rather than to capture the attention of the moment is content with a different kind of value and this site has clearly chosen the long horizon over the short one.

  49. Just dropping by to say thanks for the effort, it does not go unnoticed when a writer cares this much about the reader, and after I went through pfeuif I was certain this is one of the better corners of the internet for this particular kind of content which is genuinely refreshing.

  50. Reading this as part of my evening winding down routine fit perfectly, and a stop at stashserif extended the wind down nicely, content that calms rather than agitates is what I want at the end of the day and this site provides that calming reading experience reliably which is increasingly rare across the modern web.
