I was on my way yesterday (4-16-10) to try Bosa 1 on Jones, but when I got there, I found they close at 3:30 on Friday afternoons. I headed to Spring Mountain Road to do some exploring. As I came alongside the Pacific Asian Plaza, I remembered a friend saying there was a great Malaysian restaurant there. There was Penang on the second floor.
I got an order of Curry Puffs for an appetizer. I wondered what was taking so long. The puffs are 4 good-sized pastries filled with a very good ground potato, chicken, tofu mixture with a curry seasoning. They were very hot from the oven - hence the wait. They were excellent.
For the main course, I got the Homemade tofu with scallops and lobster sauce. There were no scallops, but there was a good amount of shrimp. The tofu was absolutely sensational!!
I decided to give the Malaysian iced coffee a try and it was good. Not something I'd get every time, but it certainly was worth a try.
I'm glad I stopped here. I have enough leftovers for dinner tonight. The portions are so large, there is enough for two to share if you want. Service was excellent. And note, this is another Chinatown restaurant that does CASH ONLY.
