The first time I had Nasi Briyani Hameediyah was like six or seven years ago. Masa tu memang rasa sedaaappppp sangatlah and have been telling meself that I'd go there again if I were ever in Penang. So, when I was there last weekend, naturally Restaurant Hameediyah was on my must-visit list.
This is my nasi briyani ayam goreng paha.
'The best nasi briyani in Penang?!!'
mmm ... maybe in Penanglah kot...
I guess my taste bud has since 'evolved' and
I don't find their nasi briyani as oompphyyy as before.
It's still nice but it doesn't really leave an impact as it did before.
But their fish curry is yummilicious.
Memang sedap menjilat jari.
Check out the awesomeness in that oily gravy.. huhu..
Their dhal gravy is on okay-okay affair.
Okay, here's the restaurant.
Not hard to miss, actually.
It's smacked between some pre-war shophouses.
The best landmark would be the Chowrasta.
It's just a block away from Chowrasta.
Here's their murtabak maker.
I guess he's as ancient as the restaurant itself
but he's very efficient.
An epitome of a competent and dedicated staff.
Tu dia murtabak tengah masak.
If you want to eat murtabak, be prepared to wait.
It's gonna take a while before you get your makanan.
Chestnut (buah berangan) seller at Chowrasta.
Original. SUPER. Premium lagi tu.
This uncle is very the jovial.
So we bought a few kgs of berangan from him.

Pae's theory : dolu2 I've not yet tasted the 'goodness' of mandy rice
so nasi briyani Hameediyah to me was like THE rice.
mm.. maybe there's some gospel truth it Pae's theory...

The (in)famous Chowrasta.
It's chaotic, dusty, hot, humid, crowded.
I guess those are the attractions of Chowrasta :D
Mesti pergi sini kalau mai Penang.
