Red Lacquer Penang Peranakan

Had discovered this restaurant in a deserted corner at JP2 so decided to come here for lunch. i ordered the promotional set lunch. You can choose the appetiser and main course for $10.90++.

i chose the loh bak (seasoned meat rolls aka ngoh hiang), inche kabin (nyonya fried chicken served with worchester sauce) with rice and iced lemon tea. The loh bak is not bad. Taste a little different from the usual ngoh hiang. The inche kabin is fried without batter till the outside and inside are very dry. i don't usually appreciate fried chicken this way but i guess i'm in the mood for a nice lunch so it tasted ok to me. hee... i liked the achar that was served as a side to the rice though... Not too spicy nor sour.

And i still managed to top up $1.90 for cendol as dessert. The coconut milk is served separate from the ice which thoughtful (i thought). i would have wished that the gula melaka is served separately too. So that i can pour in as much as i like! hehe...

The place is quite empty for a weekday lunch. Maybe JP is now too big so the crowd is dispersed. No pictures. Use your imagination! haha...
