At Maken Kitchen in DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Penang, diners can now hand-picked all the ingredients not just the seafood but also wide range of meats and greens to choose from, including beef cuts, lamb chops, Bratwurst sausages, Chinese Cabbage, corn on cob and many more. 

After picking all the ingredients, diners can then head over to the Live Cooking Station to get the chef to cook in few different style such as stir fried, grilled and deep fried. Assorted condiments are available too ranging from Madras Curry Sauce, Tandoori Spice, Masala Style, Percik Style, Spicy Sambal, Sweet and Sour sauce, Chili Crab Sauce, Creamy Herb Sauce and many more. Most of us like the "Kam Heong style" the most. 😍😍😍

Makan Kitchen at DoubleTree Resort offers a wide buffet spread that caters for everyone! Even though I am on Keto diet (high fat low carb), but I can still find many food option here. So yes, I skipped all the rice, spaghetti, or food that coated with thick batter or thick sauce. 

So I started with Seafood on Ice which consists of prawns, snow crab leg and scallop. Prawns and carb contain no carbs while providing vitamins and minerals. Cauliflower is one of the main low carb vegetable so I like to eat how tasty the way the chef deep fried it which I never done it before. Here are the rest of the food I ate, not super clean Keto, but I made sure it is fatty enough! 😁😁😁

Overall, regardless if on a specific diet or not, I think Makan Kitchen provides more than enough to cater to all. I know that now we Malaysian are under the Movement Control Order and buffet probably not available. But trust me when COVID19 is over, you will want to have a big feast and no place would be better than DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Penang!

Thanks to the invitation from DoubleTree by Hilton Penang, bae and I got to enjoy their Chinese New Year Eve Reunion Dinner. It was only our second visit to DoubleTree right after the Christmas Buffet, so we kind of expected how nicely their food presentation will be. Without surprise, they live up to the expectation by having all the delightfully decorated food. 

We started off with the appetizers which consists of assorted salad as well as Seafood on Ice. For the Seafood on Ice, the chefs from DoubleTree by Hilton Penang creatively crafted an ice blocked with frozen decorations inside. This is probably the best that we have seen so far among all the hotels in Penang! 

For the main dishes, DoubleTree by Hilton Penang offers Wok Fried Cantonese Hor Fan with Assorted Seafood, Deep Fried Prawn with Butter and Chicken Floss, Stir Fried Beef with Black Pepper Sauce, Wok Fried Flower Crab with Kam Heong Sauce, Steamed Eight Treasure Chicken with Oyster Sauce, Fried Glutinous Rice with Baby Abalone in Lotus Leaf, Steamed Fish with Nyonya Sauce, Seafood Treasure in Cabbage Parcel and Green Garden, and lastly, Roasted Duck.

Apart from the main dishes, the hotel also serves some of the Chinese must-have food at the action counters such as Roasted Chicken, Char Siew and Roasted Chicken Wings. Grilled Seafood such as prawns, fish fillets, calamari rings, chicken sausages and lamb chop are all available too! 

Lastly, DoubleTree by Hilton Penang makes sure the guests would go home with a happy stomach by serving all the beautifully decorated dessert. To match the Chinese New Year theme, the pastry chef decorated the dessert with those cute Chinese element such as Mandarin Oranges and flowers.

Overall, given the location at Batu Ferringhi, I would highly recommend to stay a night there and celebrate the Chinese New Year with family and friends! With that, one can enjoy their facilities yet taking a good time to slowly enjoy the food, the environment as well as the festive celebration.

Thanks to the invitation from Hompton by the Beach, it was the first time for bae and I to visit and get a taste of their food at high ground of Level 11 - Spice Garden. Having said that, guests were able to enjoy the food while looking out to the coastline of Tanjung Tokong. 

Putting the view aside, let's dig in to the main dishes! Hompton by the Beach hotel offers a variety of main dishes such as corn on cob in milk, oven baked potatoes with herbs, sautéed herbed butter vegetables, grilled salmon steak in fruity glaze, slow cooker Hungarian beef goulash, roasted lamb shoulder with garlic rosemary sauce, cornflakes chicken with mango salsa and firecracker sauce, three-flavoured stir-fried prawns, squid ink pasta with chicken Bolognese sauce and herb and raisin buttered rice.

One of the must have highlights for Christmas has to be the Roasted Turkey. The carving station includes roasted turkey and roasted baby lamb with Christmas stuffing of roasted baby potatoes, roasted vegetables (including Brussel sprouts, trust tomatoes, pumpkin and red baby radish). The side sauces include Jus of Turkey, Cranberry sauce, Black Pepper sauce and Mint sauce. I have to say that their Roasted Turkey is one of the best you can find in Penang hotel. The turkey was still moist and juicy, which is rare to find in roast turkey! 

Apart from the main dishes and carving station, the chef at Hompton also prepared assorted appetizers. Entrée dishes include salmon gravlax, butcher platter on ice comprising of chicken terrine, chicken salami and smoked duck breast, smoked fish platter on ice with a medley of smoked salmon, tuna and smoked mackerel served with a side of horseradish cream,  sushi and sashimi platter, assorted sushi platter, fresh salmon tuna, a taco platter and a cheese platter with mixed nuts and dried fruits.  

What stands out the most from the rest was the Vegetable Sticks in Glass with Guacamole Dip! Being a low carb dieter, avocado is like the number 1 go-to-food. So you can tell how happy I was to find that Hompton offers guacamole. 😋😋😋 

Lastly, to end the Christmas celebration on a sweet note, dessert is unavoidable! Dessert includes tropical fresh fruit platter with preserved plum powder, strawberries, green and red grapes, watermelon, honeydew, papaya, green and red applies, raspberries, blueberries, water guava and jack fruit, assorted marshmallows and dried fruits.  

There is also hot chocolate pudding, Christmas pudding, Christmas log cake, Christmas spices fruit cakes, tiramisu, assorted Christmas cookies including gingerbread man cookies, New York cheese cake, red velvet cake, candy meringue pie, apple pie with vanilla sauce, fruit tartlets, stollen shortbread, panna cotta, chocolate mousse puff,  honeycomb with Christmas farm bread plus coffee and tea. 

Overall, I think it is worth a visit given that it is one of the newest hotel in Penang. On top of that, if you enjoy your dinner with lot of booze and a seaview, then you certainly have to choose Hompton by the Beach.
