A Visit To Two Frenchies Bistro In Penang

FRENCHIES AS IT IS IN FRENCH?

Two Frenchies, it is called.. I googled for the meaning of Frenchie, a French person or a French Bulldog.  Googled deeper, this bistro is opened by two French expatriates in Penang and it has become a popular place to chill and relax in the evenings...

My friend made the reservation for four of us one evening at 7pm.  Being my first time there, I really did not know what to eat and I ended up ordering something which I find it amusing now when I look at the photos. 
Taken at dusk... Two Frenchies...
Starters... what shall I order... 
Seafood chowder... or something like that.... 
Comes with these condiments.... 
Blanquette de Saumon... 
Creamy salmon, market fish and vegetable stew served with rice pilaf... RM32.90
Croque Monsieur RM16.90
It is like French toast with turkey ham.. my version of description.. LOL.. 
Do not be deceived by this picture of the Confit de Canard...RM32.90
It might not look appetizing but this is the best order among the four of us.. 
The duck leg is cooked in its own fat and the base is made of mashed potatoes... 
I tried some and my decision is... 
 I would love to order this the next time.... 
And now presenting what I ordered for myself... LOL... 
Two Frenchies Signature Burger!  RM29.90
150g beef with melted cheese...
Crispy pork bacon among grilled onions and others.... 
Oh my goodness!  Did I really devour this burger??
I think I did minus the french fries, that is for sure!
Too much.... just too much... 
LOL...

    All looks tasty. Yum yum! I want to eat the duck dish but the creaminess of the potatoes may be too cloying.

    Food looks really delicious. Have you tried Having's in Ipoh? I think the chef is a Frenchman too.

    I wouldn't know what to order just referring to the menu. I like the duck leg. The burger looks good too.

Three Hours City Tour At Ensenada, Mexico

A THREE HOURS CITY TOUR when we embarked in Mexico on the second morning.   My sister booked the three hours city tour in Ensenada, Mexico, a van came to pick us up from the port.  Ensenada is the border of Mexico and it reminds me of Hatyai, a border town too between Malaysia and Thailand.  We were taken to a shopping area where we must haggle for the goods.  LOL.. Yes, something common in my own country... Anyway, we did not buy anything for ourselves... just a wooden handmade truck for my grandson which cost $8usd.   Nothing much to shout about on this three hours excursion, I was so sleepy on the way back to the ship that I dozed off and only awaken when we were driven through the town.  All in all, I just wanted to step onto Mexican soil and I would give this a miss if I were to go on this Mexico cruise again.  LOL... At the open area shopping walking towards the Blowhole... This is La Bufadora Blowhole, an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of shooting water over 60 fe

Exploring The Sea Cruise Royal Caribbean

CRUISING ALONG.... Once we deposited our bags in our cabins, we had our buffet meal at the Hammerjack restaurant and exactly at 4pm, we heard a loud Horn signal...  ITS TIME TO SAIL ALONG THE PACIFIC OCEAN! And while the ship started to sail, we humans started to walk and explore.... to familarize ourselves inside the ship....  Elevators on each side of the ship....  Making my mark....  On another side....  We walked along to check out our food outlets... This Promenade Cafe  had became our regular joint .... We like to sit there enjoying our hot drinks and desserts... Free flow of food day and night.... Passing through the bars to the casino... The casino will open only when the ship is in international waters...  At one of the jackpot machines... I wonder if they are real?? But they are only $1 bundles... Then we went up to the highest floor.... The swimming deck.... Taken against the sun.... Nice sunset in the evening.... The Happy Trio!

First Day In The Royal Caribbean Cruise To Mexico

ROW ROW ROW YOUR BOAT.... gently down the sea....  Royal Caribbean, it is my second time following this giant vessel, the first time was from Singapore to Phuket, that was a very nice cruise.  So when my son mentioned that he found a good deal online, this time to Mexico, I agreed without hesitation.  Let's Go! A three nights stay with food and lodging only cost around $250 per person with at least one senior in per room.  Meals were either buffet style or fine dining, we can choose and cafes were opened 24 hours for us to rest and relax.  How not to resist... LOL...  And so here we are... just one week after landing in US, I was on the sea....  Looks small from afar...  It was a giant vessel with at least 14 floors.... On the way to embarking after Custom Clearance...  Our room for the next three nights....  Small and cosy.... And adjoining to my son's family room through a door...  The one with balcony cost a bit more...  A short briefing about safety after we checked in....
