Tainan Restaurant @ Midlands Park Centre, Georgetown, Penang

I never notice there is another Taiwanese Restaurant in Midlands Park Centre. I used to go Midlands Park (or so called One Stop) for computer related stuff when it was still happening back then, but never knew about this restaurant.

This Tainan Restaurant was operated by sisters since it was opened. Until end of last year, it was taken over by a young man, Mr Chong.

The interior of the restaurant is very simple. It is more on family style rather than those elegant environment.

Menu. I like the wood cover of the menu.

Let’s start with some snacks.

Eel Roll 鳗鱼卷 RM6.00. This is nice. It has a lot of ingredients inside the roll. Will order this again for my next visit.

Taiwan Sausage 台湾香肠 RM8.50. Nothing to shout about on this. Pretty normal Taiwan Sausage.

Taiwan Wantan Soup 红油炒手 RM6.50. For those who loved ginger, you will like this very much. Ginger juice is used to mix with the mince pork. From the first bit until the very last bite, you can taste the ginger. To me, I am OK with this, but not to my friend.

Taiwan Beef Noodle 台湾牛肉面 RM7. The soup is thick and the taste is similar with the taste of other soup. We cannot think of it at first. But later, we remembered after a number of tasting. It is like the taste of an oxtail soup.

The noodle used is different if compare to other Taiwan Beef Noodle. The beef I had was tender to my liking. According to the owner, they went to the market to get the beef everyday. So, it is fresh! It is recommended to eat it while it was hot.

Golden Chicken Wing Rice 香草炸鸡翅饭 RM7. You can taste the rice wine from the chicken wing. For chicken wing lover, this is a MUST for you.

Golden Chicken Drumstick Rice 鸡腿饭 RM7. The drumstick is not bad overall. I am quite like it.

Pork Chop Rice 排骨饭 RM7. The Pork Chop is crispy and NOT OILY. Yes, I am very particular on this. Nice.

Saucy Chicken Rice 贵妃鸡饭 RM8. Wolf Berries are used for the sauce. The sauce is sweet and the chicken is tender enough. My friends like the egg very much.

Special Pork Rib Rice 豆瓣酱排骨饭 RM7. This is another dish that I like. It is so nice to have it with the rice, due to the saltiness of the sauce. It blends well with the rice, makes you craving for more!


Photo taken from FoOd PaRaDiSe. I somehow forgot to take the photo of this dish. I think I am either busy photo shooting or busy eating. Haha. 🙂

For all the dishes above, you can opt for the Set Meal by adding RM4.50, which comes with a Drink, Soup of the Day and Dessert. The dessert on that day is Barley. The desserts are varies from day to day. They have Green Bean, Peanut, Longan White Fungus or even Ice Cream. All depends on your luck.

Soup of the day. The soup is very nice. I like it.

Tainan Restaurant has this so called Free Set Meal card.

Every set meal will entitle you a stamp. Collect for 15 stamps and you will get a Free Set Meal, except for the Seafood Set Meal.

With the cheap price range, you cannot complain much about it. If you want to try Taiwanese Food with a reasonable price, Tainan Restaurant will be your choice. I will go and try out other food next time in future.

2,555 thoughts on “Tainan Restaurant @ Midlands Park Centre, Georgetown, Penang”

  1. Reading this fit naturally into my afternoon walk because I was reading on my phone, and a stop at twilightfernstore continued well in that walking format, content that survives mobile reading without becoming awkward is content with format flexibility and this site has clearly thought about how it reads across different devices today.

  2. Now understanding why someone recommended this site to me a while back, and a stop at fasttrendhub explained the recommendation, sometimes recommendations make sense only after experience and this site has finally clicked into place as the kind of resource I now understand was being recommended for sound editorial reasons by my friend.

  3. Adding this to my list of go to references for the topic, and a stop at cleverdealstation confirmed the rest of the site deserves the same, definitely the kind of resource that earns its place rather than getting forgotten the moment the next interesting article shows up in my feed somewhere else on the web.

  4. Reading this with a notebook open turned out to be the right move, and a stop at velvetgrovecrafts added more material to the notes, content that justifies active note taking from a passive reader is content with real informational density and this site is producing notes worthy material at a high rate consistently.

  5. Genuinely useful read, the points are practical and easy to apply right away, and a quick look at sunwovenmarket confirmed that this site is consistent in that approach, looking forward to digging through the rest of it when I get the chance to sit down properly later in the week or this weekend.

  6. Speaking as someone who used to recommend blogs frequently and got out of the habit this site is rekindling that impulse, and a look at digitalcartcenter extended the rekindling, the recovery of an old habit triggered by encountering work that justifies it is itself a small kind of pleasure and this site is providing that recovery experience.

  7. Reading this slowly in the morning before opening email, and a stop at frostbaycollective extended that protected attention, content that earns the prime morning reading slot before the daily distractions begin is content with elevated status and this site has earned that prime slot consistently in my recent reading habits clearly.

  8. A quiet kind of confidence runs through the writing, and a look at luxuryfindshub carried that same understated assurance, confidence without bragging is the most attractive register for online writing and the writers here have clearly developed it through practice rather than affecting it through stylistic tricks that would feel hollow eventually.

  9. A slim post with substantial content per word, and a look at blossombaycollective maintained the same density, the content per word ratio is something I track informally and this site scores high on that ratio compared to most sources I read regularly which is a quiet indicator of careful editorial work behind the scenes.

  10. Probably the kind of site that should be more widely read than it appears to be, and a look at shadowglowcorner reinforced that quiet wish, the gap between a sites quality and its apparent reach is sometimes large and that gap exists for this site in a way that makes me want to mention it more.

  11. Picked up a couple of new ideas here that I can actually try out, and after my visit to velvetfieldstore I have even more notes saved, this is the kind of resource that pays you back for the time you spend on it which is rare to come across in this corner of the web.

  12. Reading this felt productive in a way most internet reading does not, and a look at goldendriftmarket continued that productive feeling, sometimes the open web feels like a waste of time but sites like this remind me why I still bother to look around rather than retreating to old reliable sources for everything I need.

  13. Looking forward to seeing what gets published next month, and a look at goldenferncollective extended that anticipation across the broader site, finding myself looking forward to a sites future content rather than just consuming its existing content is a stronger commitment level than I usually reach with new finds and this site triggered that.

  14. Started a draft response in my head and ended without publishing it because the post said it well enough, and a look at silverpetalemporium produced the same effect, content that satisfies my urge to add to it by being complete enough on its own is rare and represents a particular kind of editorial completeness here.

  15. A piece that handled multiple complications without becoming confused, and a look at premiumgoodscorner continued that organisational clarity, holding multiple threads in a single piece without losing any of them is a sign of skilled writing and this site has clearly developed the editorial discipline to manage complexity without sacrificing readability throughout.

  16. Excellent execution from start to finish, the post never loses its rhythm and the points stay sharp, and a quick stop at swifttrendstation kept the same level going, consistency like this across a site is the marker of a serious operation rather than a casual side project running on autopilot somewhere else.

  17. Reading this site over the past week has changed how I evaluate content in this space, and a look at frostpinecollective extended that recalibration, the standards I bring to reading on the topic have shifted upward as a direct result of regular exposure to this kind of work and that shift will outlast any single reading session.

  18. Reading this gave me a small sense of progress on a topic I have been slowly working through, and a stop at prismoakcollective added another step forward, learning happens in small increments across many sources and finding sources that consistently contribute is the actual practical value of careful curation in an information rich world.

  19. Just nice to read something that does not feel like it was assembled from a content brief, and a stop at blossomhavenmarket kept that handcrafted feel going, you can tell when a real human with real understanding is behind the words versus a templated piece churned out for an algorithm to find.

  20. Skipped lunch to finish reading, which says something, and a stop at amberlighthousegoods kept me at my desk longer than planned, when content beats the lunch impulse the writer has done something genuinely impressive in an attention environment full of immediately satisfying alternatives competing for the same finite block of reader time.

  21. Thanks for the honest framing without exaggerated claims that the topic will change my life, and a stop at goldenfernmarket kept the same modest tone, restraint in marketing language signals trustworthiness and the writers here are clearly playing the long game by building credibility rather than chasing immediate clicks through hyperbole.

  22. Really thankful for posts that respect a reader’s time, this one does, and a quick look at cloudridgegoods was the same, no need to scroll through endless intros just to get to the actual content, that approach alone is enough reason to come back here regularly for the kind of writing offered.

  23. Thanks for the moderate length, neither so short it skips substance nor so long it bloats, and a stop at radiantshorestore hit the same balance, the right length is one of the hardest things to calibrate in blog writing and I appreciate when a team has clearly thought about it rather than defaulting.

  24. However casually I came to this site I have ended up reading carefully, and a look at echoferncollective continued earning that careful reading, the conversion from casual visitor to careful reader is something content earns rather than demands and this site has accomplished that conversion for me over the course of just a few pieces.

  25. Reading this between meetings turned out to be the most useful thing I did all afternoon, and a stop at rapidtrendzone kept that productivity feeling going, content can sometimes outperform actual work in terms of what gets accomplished mentally and this site managed that today which is genuinely a high bar to clear consistently.

  26. Probably the kind of site that should be more widely read than it appears to be, and a look at echopetalbazaar reinforced that quiet wish, the gap between a sites quality and its apparent reach is sometimes large and that gap exists for this site in a way that makes me want to mention it more.

  27. Granted I am giving this site more credit than I usually give new finds, and a look at amberridgegoods 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.

  28. Different feel from the algorithmically optimised posts that dominate the topic, and a stop at urbantrendzone reinforced that human touch, you can tell when a site is being run by someone who reads what they publish versus someone just hitting submit and moving on quickly to the next assignment without checking the result.

  29. Better than most of the writing I have come across on this topic recently, simpler and more direct, and a look at twilightcreststore continued in that same way, a real outlier in a crowded space full of repetitive content that says little while taking up a lot of reader time today which is unfortunate.

  30. Worth flagging this post as worth a careful read rather than a casual skim, and a stop at urbantrendarena earned the same careful approach, the few sites that warrant slower reading are sites I now treat differently from the daily content stream and this one has clearly moved into that elevated treatment category.

  31. Liked the way the post got out of its own way, and a stop at glowforgeessentials extended that invisible craft, the best writing you barely notice while reading because it is doing its work without drawing attention to itself and this site has clearly mastered that disappearing act across the pieces I have read.

  32. Honest assessment is that this is one of the better short reads I have had this week, and a look at blossombaycollective reinforced that, the bar for short content is low because most of it sacrifices substance for brevity but this site manages both at once which is harder than it sounds for most writers attempting it.

  33. Honestly thank you to whoever wrote this because it scratched an itch I had not quite been able to articulate, and a stop at blossomhorizonstore kept that satisfying feeling going, the kind of writing that meets unspoken needs is special and this site clearly has writers who understand their readers more than most do today.

  34. Coming back to this one, definitely, and a quick visit to digitalpickmarket only made me more sure of that, the kind of writing that makes you want to set aside time later rather than rushing through it now while distracted by everything else competing for attention on the screen today across so many tabs.

  35. Even on a quick first read the substance of the post comes through, and a look at modernoutfitstore reinforced that immediate quality, content that does not require a slow careful read to demonstrate value but rewards one anyway is content with real depth and this site has produced work of that demanding depth class.

  36. Worth recognising that the post did not pretend to be the final word on the topic, and a stop at echohollowmarket continued that humility, content that admits its own scope and limits is more trustworthy than content that overreaches and this site has clearly developed the editorial maturity to know what it can and cannot claim well.

  37. Worth flagging that the post handled an angle of the topic I had not seen elsewhere, and a look at digitaldealcorner extended that fresh treatment, content that finds underexplored corners of well covered subjects is genuinely valuable and this site has demonstrated that exploratory editorial approach across multiple pieces in my reading sessions today.

  38. Glad the writer kept this short rather than padding it out, the points stand on their own without needing extra context, and a look at echopinecollective kept the same approach going, brevity is a sign of confidence in the substance and the team here clearly trusts their content to land without filler.

  39. Started forming counter examples to test the claims and the post handled most of them implicitly, and a look at digitaldealzone continued that anticipatory style, writers who think two steps ahead of the critical reader save themselves from a lot of follow up work and this writer has clearly internalised that habit consistently.

  40. A memorable post for me on a topic I had thought I was tired of, and a look at velvetoakcollective suggested the same site can refresh other tired topics, sites that can revive my interest in subjects I had written off as exhausted are doing rare work and this one is clearly doing that for me today.

  41. Found this really helpful, the explanations are simple but they actually answer the questions a normal reader would have, and after I followed goldendunemarket I had a clearer sense of the topic, no extra fluff just useful points laid out in a sensible order that made the time worth it.

  42. Honest assessment is that this is one of the better short reads I have had this week, and a look at blossomhavenmarket reinforced that, the bar for short content is low because most of it sacrifices substance for brevity but this site manages both at once which is harder than it sounds for most writers attempting it.

  43. 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 urbanpinegoods 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.

  44. Reading this confirmed that the topic deserves more careful attention than it usually gets, and a stop at amberpetalmarket extended that elevated framing, content that raises the appropriate weight of a subject without being preachy about it is serving a quiet but important editorial function for the broader cultural conversation about it.

  45. Reading this post made me realise I had been settling for lower quality elsewhere, and a look at mysticthreadstore extended that recalibration, content that exposes how much I had been accepting in adjacent sources is content with calibrating effect on my standards and this site is performing that calibration function across topics for me reliably.

  46. A piece that exhibited the kind of patience that good writing requires, and a look at echogrovecollective continued that patient quality, hurried writing is easy to spot and this site reads as having been written without time pressure which produces a different feel than the rushed content that dominates much of the modern blog space.

  47. Reading this prompted me to subscribe to my first newsletter in months, and a stop at boldtrendmarket confirmed the subscribe was the right call, content that earns a newsletter signup is content that has cleared a higher trust bar than a casual visit and this site has clearly earned that level of commitment from me.

  48. Now considering whether the post would translate well into a different form, and a look at silkduneemporium suggested similar versatility, content that could move into other media without losing its substance is content that has been built around ideas rather than around format and this site reads as idea first throughout posts.
