Hello John n fellow Penang hokkien kakis,

This is a little OT, so please bear with me… Do anyone by any chance have the recipe of “Yin Chee K Bi” or something sounds like that. Sorry if it sounds offensives. Haha. Not very good with pin yin. Anyway, a brief description of the dish might help you to understand what I’m asking.

It is a fried chicken dish which I tasted when I was in Penang for holiday during the early 80’s. The dish was prepared by a Penang friend’s grandmother. Unfortunately, his fabulous grandmother had passed on along with the recipe…

I’m not really sure if this is a authentic Penang dish as I had asked many younger generation friendsand folks from Penang and they are clueless about it. I do believed that this dish was also served in the Penang Hill Top restaurant (can’t remember the name of the restaurant though) as I vividly remembered having it for lunch in the early 80’s.

Please help even if you have just a sliver of information about it. I hoped I can traced back to the wonderful memories of this great matriarch of this Hainanese household living in Penang….

Kind Regards n Merry Christmas
