HANA CAFE 하나카페 @ TANJUNG BUNGAH, PENANG





Finally, found some time to pen down the many pending personal posts that we stumbled upon while casually hanging out in search for new inspiration so called. And one of the conglomerative   stacks of ‘foodo-graphy’ actually comes from Penang, hehe.
  
It always feels good to see that the coffee scene over here in The Pearl of Orient is no longer growing but already blooming instead, from time to time whenever am back to the whimsical homeland of mine.




Of course, apart from spending quality time with family this trip back home, it’s also meant to be a bonding session with hometown comrades (with two April birthday babies to be celebrated too coincidentally), and I think no harm including some brief (or rather maximizing the time as best could^^) visits to those new cafes in town.





But first, how come I end up at a Hallyu café in a city of nowhere Korean wave is as apparent as back in the KL city?

Well, long story cut short, as Garfield drove by with the initial plan to either heading to Penang Hillside vicinities  or just drop me off at some foreign places to get me stranded, I chanced upon this Hangul-bearing board, and tada, that’s it! Curiosity seems to always gets the better of me :D





Hana Café seems to be better known for its Korean Fried Chicken and bingsu among the locals here. The menu is very straightforward, offering these signatures alongside other beverages like coffees and juices.





As it’s already 10pm that night, so going light is the best plan. Hence, a milky cuppa with bingsu- not too bad a combo huh? ^^

While waiting for the bites to arrive, I had a fast look around and saw a huge Teddy sitting comfortably at the coach! I think he’s kinda lonely, so I left my coffee to keep him occupied for awhile, hehe.




Basically, the interior revolves around wooden furniture to exude that vintage feel. And with that Teddy around, it somehow reminds me of the famous Korean drama, “Gong”- Princess Hours.

CLASSIC BINGSU (MYR 12)

Alright, perhaps its presentation wise might need some tweak, the ice flakes are fine and smooth though, instantly melt upon getting into the mouth. The red beans help to add some sweetness to the soya-infused mountains, sprinkled with the mungbean-taste powder, yum yum!




Having said that, I still prefer the version by Hanbing for the more indulgence of injeolmi.




The place offer al fresco, bright dining as well as some warm corner for intimate chattering.





After that quick lazing with Teddy, we finally made a move to Lotus for the latest movie by Batman vs Superman, as so, so much anticipated and highly recommended by Garfield, despite the movie actually seems tad lukewarm, even The Allegiant and 13- Hours are way better! :D




Oh, just in case you’re still wondering who and where does this Garfield comes from, it’s just the perfect sobriquet given to that buddy for the everlasting, second to none cheeky statements of all time. Ask everyone around him, surely a unanimous affirmation thou shall receive (=


Let’s hover to DCOVA for tea-time the next day! ^^
