Had a quick dinner last night at the Qiu Seafood restaurant located at Desaria Commercial Center, Sg. Ara, Penang opposite Nasi Kandar Dinas (Sg. Ara branch). This restaurant offer seafood & non-seafood dishes at the reasonable price. One of my favorite I would say.
For a simple dinner, we ordered only 3 dishes - fish curry, stir fried chai-ta with salted fish & stir fried “kepah” (”sea-mussel“) with curry powder (”char kam hiong” in Hokkien).
I like the curry here which being prepared in Nyonya style. You can opt for either fish meat or fish head (normally Ikan Siakap or “Barramundi“, also called “Asian Seabass” or “Giant Perch”). We ordered fish meat curry this time because we’re in the rush sending our kids to tuition class. If not, fish head curry will be my choice as more time needed to really enjoy it. Price = RM24.00
Next come the stir fried vegetable (”chai-ta”) with salted fish which I would said very well prepared & taste good. The vege was crunchy & the salted fish was not too salted and crispy too. This is the first time we ordered this dish & it’s turned out to be unbelievable good. Price = RM8.00
Stir fried “kepah” or “sea-mussel” with curry powder (”char kam hiong” in Hokkien) is our favorite dish especially for our kids. This is the must everytime we visit Qiu. The thick & strong gravy really enhance the taste of the dish. Tried this type of dish in many places but this is the best for me so far! Price = RM8.00
Total damage (plus drink) = RM47.00
