A popular zhi char place along Gurney Drive. We had claypot tau fu, Guinness chicken, braised pork ribs with yam, stir fry vege and bitter gourd omelette. Everything was good.

I decided to try this restaurant through Grab after reading the reviews. Actually, I don't mind spending more money on food delivery platforms, but this restaurant should really be avoided.

This is a restaurant I always visit whenever I go back home; I've been eating there since I was a child. Scrambled eggs with bitter melon and braised fish are must-orders, and oyster fried noodles are also my favorite.

We used to patronise Home Style at Permai 32. For a change we visited their branch Jia Shi at Gurney Drive. It was Mother's Day. We managed to find parking at Lorong Birch (behind), though the restaurant had her own small car park.

Jiashi Restaurant is tucked along Gurney, a nice location though parking can be a bit tricky. The food is on the good side, with prices that are reasonable for Penang Island.

The food was alright, but it was a bit noisy because it was crowded. You should ask about the prices of the items on the menu that are priced at market value, plus a 5% service charge and a 6% tax.

The bitter fried egg is very special 苦瓜夹蛋。 If can add more bitterguard will be good. The claypot fish with yam is nice. The rest of the fishes is more on heavy taste type, even vegetable.

Ordered the braised tiger grouper with yam which is not common in Singapore. 1kg RM240 (80sgd) and I got a 700g order. Taste good. Also had the big river prawn hot fin for RM50+. Both recommended.
