All About Hardworking


 骏发饭店 (Chun Fat Restaurant)

Mr. Fong - Chef (the Expert)
Mr. Fong

Mr. Fong started restaurant business since year 1979. He became like triathlete man to travel in between Alor Setar, Seberang Perai (Chai Leng Park) and Penang Island during 1982-83. He managed totally 3 restaurants mainly. He must be the superman to just manage 3 restaurants at one day.

Cooking Progress

"It was exhausting indeed to travel like this and difficult to manage, thus I decided to fully concentrate this restaurant in Penang Island after 1983," said Mr. Fong, staring on me with firm-belief eyes.

Freshness Is The Key for Colouring, Fragant & Taste

Serious Preparation for cooking
Preparing the cooking seriously.

Mr. Fong is expert in Cantonese cuisine and he stresses strictly on freshness. Only receives order, then he cooks on the spot. There is no so-called cook and stock in freezer. Not his practice nor his style. Every single raw cooking materials is fresh! There are three (3) factors that bring out a tasty dish - colouring, fragant and taste. Simple formula: -

Freshness = Colouring + Fragant + Taste

Customized and Recommended Dishes
It was correct timing when my brother-in-law treated family with Mr. Fong's recommended and customized dishes. Words unable to describe in details. I prefer to let the photos speak precisely. Hope this does not making you hungry then. Sounds evil huh? :-) Please forgive me on the
English translated name (Mr. Fong gave me the beautiful dishes names in Chinese).

  1. I like to eat at here too. I use to go there when I was a child and never forget the good taste!

    There are more creative yet good dishes that created by the chef and all are fabulous! The exciting part is the price is absolutely affordable!

    Suggest to anyone that go to penang "Never miss it when you go to Penang". Beside all the delicous hawker food this is another "MUST GO" place for food hunt!

    1. In fact, I also felt the same. Had the phone contact but the owner no longer intended to pick up the phone or the fact is he already changed his contact.
