Restoran Pulau Roasted, Jelutong

Restoran Pulau Roasted, Jelutong, Penang (23 November 2013)


Restoran Pulau Roasted (GPS: 5.39634, 100.31424) is a coffee shop in Jelutong, Penang. I believe it is a rather new coffee shop because it was the first time I noticed it (but then again, I don't come to this part of town often). (I found out that it was previously known as Yam Yam Sek Sek Cafe in 2017, Single Bowl Cafe in 2015 and Beyond Cafe in 2013 - so much for the turnover!

Restoran Pulau Roasted occupies the corner shoplot at Taman Kheng Tian Apartments. We arrived there early in the morning, and saw that it has a Wan Tan Mee and a Pho Viet stall, so we decided to order one bowl of wan than mee (medium size, RM4.50) and a bowl of pho (also medium size, at RM8.00).

The Wan Tan Mee is salty, which is fine by me (I like salty food, though not the healthiest thing), but too salty for my wife. Having said that, I have had better wan than mee elsewhere.

The Pho is the Vietnamese version of our gu bak koay teow. It is RM8, which is more or less about the price of a bowl of gu bak koay teow. One thing I have to say is that it arrived with the lemon on a spoon submerged in the soup, so you wet your hands trying to squeeze it. The taste of the pho is okay, but not so great that we would eagerly make a return trip.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
