Xuan Xin Restaurant 港式小厨 @ Gurney Plaza, Penang
It has been a very long time we never go for a movie. Yes! We both are super busy lately… … Mr bear is a workaholic, we hardly see each other. So, when he could spare some time with me, I’d be very happy like a little girl. I’m indeed cherish the precious moment with him : )
Last week, we had our late lunch @ Xuan Xin Restaurant before movie. We both were in a good mood, enjoying the day off work ^o^

The Bill

Overall, the food is above average, decent except for the black pepper crab (RM6/100gram), kinda disappointed with the taste, it was more like the crab in black bean sauce, missing the black pepper flavor that I love : (
As for the menu, it has a wide variety of choices, set meal for two, group of 3-4 or 10. Great for family and friends gathering.
Next up, my favorite Chinese seafood restaurant with the best in town black pepper crab and Nestum Cereal Prawns/ Mantis Prawns ^ ^

what a nice place to go.. we had been to the place… but yet to post abt them as we found out most of the dish is too salty even it it take with rice…
will go for review another round….
Beautiful decor. The food looked wonderful. I love spicy!
Hi, PenangTuaPui.
OOppsss, that sound terrible… thankful, our lunch was pretty good : p
yea, I’d definitely go for another try. But i do think it gotta improve the uneven food consistency and service, otherwise… …it is a waste of $$ dining there.
Hey, screamin’ Mama
I’m a spicy lover too!! Other than mushroom soup, clam chowder, tomyam soup, & many many more, my another fav goes to hot & sour szachuan soup.
It is very appetizing!! : )
Hi from Santa Barbara, we enjoyed the view of the restaurant and the dishes looked very tasty. We just like to see what you are ordering? Really fun for us here. best, s
Hi!!!

I been there since the beginning of operation and glad to hear that you enjoyed the food.
Dear food paradise,
Enjoyable, reason was quite satisfied on the food, another thing was because we were feeling good on our off day, hehe : p
beautiful restaurant. beautiful food. crab looked the best. what currency was the receipt in?
Hi, brad
thanks for dropping a line here. In Malaysia we use Malaysian ringgits (MYR)
: )
Crab, is my fav ^ ^
But this is not the best… …
Contrary to what a pleasant experience u had at Xuanxin we had a totally different experience there.It was of utter disappointment though u had praised the food there ,our food was nuthin to shout about.on top of that to make matters worse out of the 6 dishes we had ,there was a stone pebble in the prawn dish.Unbelievable,n to add insult there was strands of hair in our coffee blended drink.We conplained n had a change of the drink but turned down a replacement of the prwan dish as we feared to think of what to expect next.I believe u must be so lucky to have good food there.
Oh bennystar99, that’s so bad.
I’m so sorry to hear that. The quality drop?? I need to find out.
