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

Bukan Ah Lan Ah, but Ah Kin Lah … taboleh tahan your infectious laugh man…

Loti Guan, your voice buay pai man! Why you xiao xiao one – like crazy gila like that. Your voice good lah. Very low and sexy. May I request you sing another time, seriously OK? Sayang, I not in Penang or Malaysia.

Ah Kin from Australia leh. Missing all the bising bising cheeky fun there! How can I connect to your program huh? Got any internet tok konh or not. I am internet sua ku lah.

I now turn on my lap top to your site and leave it running while I goyang around the home. Makes me home sick lah, like in Malaysia again – saya Anak Kelantan (KB Kia) lah!
