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.

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.

  1. Felt this in a way I cannot quite explain, the topic just hit different here, and a stop at ozoneosprey continued in that vein, sometimes you find a site whose perspective lines up with how you have been thinking and reading their work feels like a small relief which I appreciated more than I expected.

  2. Just want to flag that this was useful and not bury the appreciation in caveats, and a look at devplain earned the same direct praise, recognising good work without hedging it with criticism is something I try to practice because over qualified compliments tend to read as backhanded and miss the point sometimes.

  3. Pleasant surprise, the post delivered more than the headline promised, and a stop at ridgegrid continued that pattern of under promising and over delivering, the rarest combination on the modern web where most content does the opposite by promising the world and delivering thin recycled summaries instead each time you click on something interesting.

  4. Reading this slowly to give it the attention it deserved, and a stop at nexusnode 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.

  5. 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 softplateau 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.

  6. Now considering the post as evidence that careful blog writing is still possible, and a look at oedipusblog extended that evidence, the broader question of whether the modern web can sustain quality writing has obvious empirical answers in sites like this one and seeing them is reassuring even when they remain a minority overall today.

  7. Now considering the post as evidence that careful blog writing is still possible, and a look at weborchard extended that evidence, the broader question of whether the modern web can sustain quality writing has obvious empirical answers in sites like this one and seeing them is reassuring even when they remain a minority overall today.

  8. The headings made navigating the post simple even when I needed to find a specific section quickly, and a look at gammagrid 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.

  9. Generally I do not leave comments but this post merits a small note, and a stop at ridgeroutey extended that comment worthy quality, the urge to actively contribute to a sites community rather than passively consume from it is something specific content provokes and this site has provoked that engagement urge from me today.

  10. Now feeling slightly more committed to my own careful reading practices having read this, and a stop at digitalgoodscorner reinforced that commitment, content that models the kind of attention it deserves is content that calibrates the reader and this site has clearly raised my own bar for what to bring to good writing today.

  11. Liked the natural conversational tone throughout, never stiff and never overly casual either, and a stop at appplateau 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.

  12. Over the course of reading several posts here a pattern of quality has emerged, and a stop at richardking confirmed the pattern, the difference between sites that hit quality occasionally and sites that hit it consistently is huge and this site has clearly demonstrated the consistent kind through what I have read this morning.

  13. Reading this triggered a small change in how I think about the topic going forward, and a stop at navmixo reinforced that subtle shift, the rare content that actually moves my thinking rather than just confirming or filling it is the kind I most value and this site is providing that kind of impact today.

  14. Came here from another site and ended up exploring much further than I planned, and a look at devseed only encouraged more exploration, the kind of place where one click leads to another not through manipulative design but through genuinely interesting content is rare and worth highlighting when found like this somewhere on the open internet.

  15. Liked how the writer used real examples instead of theoretical ones to make the points stick, and a stop at compasscabin added even more concrete examples, this is the kind of practical approach that respects readers who actually want to apply what they learn rather than just nodding along passively without doing anything useful.

  16. Really appreciate the absence of stock photos that have nothing to do with the content, and a quick visit to auralbrick maintained the same restraint, visual filler is a tell that the writing cannot stand on its own and the lack of it here suggests the team has confidence in their content quality alone.

  17. The structure of the post made it easy to follow without losing track of where I was, and a look at smartcartarena kept the same logical flow going, this site clearly understands that organisation is half the battle in keeping readers engaged from the first line to the last across any kind of post.

  18. Honestly the simplicity of the explanation made the topic click for me in a way other writeups had not, and a look at devstream continued that clarity into related areas, when a writer gets the level of explanation right the reader does the heavy lifting themselves and the post just enables it.

  19. Picked this for a morning recommendation in our company chat, and a look at bauxauras suggested I will mention this site again later, recommending content into a workplace context is a small editorial act that requires confidence in the recommendation and this site is making me confident in those recommendations consistently here too.

  20. Speaking from the perspective of a fairly demanding reader the writing here clears the bar consistently, and a look at blog44where continued clearing that bar, the calibration of demanding reader is something I apply to all sources and this site has been one of the few that handles the demanding reading well across pieces sampled.

  21. Strong recommendation from me, anyone curious about the topic should make time for this, and a look at softatoll only sharpens that recommendation further, the kind of resource that holds up against careful scrutiny rather than crumbling at the first critical question is rare and worth pointing other people toward when the topic comes up.

  22. This filled in a gap in my understanding that I had not even noticed was there, and a stop at blog66nights did the same, the kind of post that gives you more than you expected when you first clicked through from somewhere else, a real find for anyone curious about the area covered here.

  23. Adding to the bookmarks now before I forget, that is how good this is, and a look at chordbase confirmed the rest of the site is worth saving too, this is one of those rare finds that justifies the time spent searching the web for once which is a relief in the current environment.

  24. Adding this to my list of go to references for the topic, and a stop at larumed 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.

  25. Started taking notes about halfway through because the points were stacking up, and a look at conchbook added enough material that my notes file grew further, content that demands note taking from a passive reader is content with substance and the writers here are clearly producing that kind of work consistently across topics.

  26. In the middle of an otherwise scattered day this post landed as a moment of focus, and a stop at solidrunway extended that focused feeling across more pages, content that anchors a fragmented day rather than contributing to the fragmentation is content with real centring effect and this site is providing that anchoring function for me.

  27. The depth of coverage felt about right for the format, neither shallow nor overwhelming, and a look at appforest kept that calibration going, getting the depth right for blog format is genuinely difficult because too shallow loses experts and too deep loses beginners but this site nailed it nicely which I really do appreciate.

  28. Reading this in the gap between work projects was a small but meaningful break, and a stop at balticbull extended that gentle reset, content that provides genuine refreshment rather than just distraction during work breaks is content with a particular kind of utility and this site fits that role for me reliably during work days.

  29. Will be coming back to this for sure, too much good content to absorb in one sitting, and a stop at logiccloud only added more pages I want to dig through, this site is going onto my regular rotation list because it consistently delivers something worth the visit lately rather than empty filler.

  30. Felt the post had been written without looking over its shoulder, and a look at blog33nearly continued that confident posture, content written for its own sake rather than against imagined critics has a different quality and this site reads as written from a place of confidence rather than defensive justification of every claim.

  31. Considered as a whole this site has developed a coherent point of view that comes through in individual pieces, and a look at orderpad continued displaying that coherence, sites with a unified perspective rather than a grab bag of takes are sites with editorial maturity and this one has clearly developed that maturity through years of work.

  32. Hello there, You’ve performed a great job. I will certainly digg it and individually suggest to my friends. I am sure they will be benefited from this web site.

  33. Now wishing I had found this site sooner, and a look at voxsync extended that mild regret, the calculation of how many years of good content I missed by not finding the right sources earlier is one I try not to make too often but it does come up sometimes when I find sites this good.

  34. Really thankful for posts that respect a reader’s time, this one does, and a quick look at echoengine 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.

  35. Now noticing that the post benefited from being neither too short nor too long for its content, and a look at oracleblogger continued that calibration of length, sites that match length to content rather than padding to hit some target are sites that respect both their material and their readers and this site does both.

  36. Took longer than expected to finish because I kept stopping to think, and a stop at bowclub did the same to me, content that provokes thought rather than just delivering information is in a different category and the team here is clearly working at that higher level rather than just cranking out posts.

  37. Worth recognising that the post did not pretend to be the final word on the topic, and a stop at primevaluecorner 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.

  38. Worth recognising the absence of the usual blog tropes here, and a look at blog33mouth continued that fresh quality, sites that avoid the standard moves of the medium read as more original even when the content is on familiar topics and this one has clearly chosen its own path through the conventional terrain skilfully.

  39. Reading this with a fresh mind in the morning brought out details I might have missed in the afternoon, and a stop at blog33building earned the same fresh attention, content that rewards being read at full attention rather than at energy lows is content with real density and this site has that density consistently.

  40. Top notch writing, every paragraph carries weight and nothing feels like filler, and a stop at doctorahmed reflected that same care, a rare thing on the open web these days where most pages exist for clicks rather than actual reader value or anything close to that which is honestly a real shame.

  41. Felt like I was reading something written by someone who actually thinks about the topic rather than reciting it, and a look at quantumq 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.

  42. Worth every minute of the time spent reading, and a stop at softtitan extends that value across more pages, in a media environment where most content is engineered to waste attention this site stands out by treating reader time as something valuable rather than something to be exploited and stretched as far as possible.

  43. Thanks for the clean writing, no broken sentences and no awkward translations like some other sites have, and a quick stop at boomastro kept that polish going nicely, it really does make a difference when a reader can move through a page without tripping on every line or going back to reread.

  44. Skipped lunch to finish reading, which says something, and a stop at qualitycartstation 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.
