Italiannis @ Gurney Paragon ~ recurring visit!

 Italiannies is fast becoming one of my favourite dining outlets, especially since they brought it up North to Penang. I must say, they have good food on their menu, abeit the rather slightly high pricing of their dishes. Well, I guess with good quality food comes an equally as good price :)

One of my favourite must-order items is the stuffed mushrooms!! O.M.G these are sooo good especially to go with their free-flow of bread & vinegar... Tender meat and soft mushrooms topped with cheesy sause - ah, my mouth is watering as i type!

Next-up, we ordered the Fettuccini Carbonara and Seafood Risotto. We wanted a good variety of pasta so one noodle and one rice. Both dishes were tasty and filling. And I mean... really FILLING!

We were so full by the end of the meal it was hard to take another bite... but... then this kind waiter came-up to our table and offered us a taste of their yet-to-be-on-menu dessert on the house!
How can anyone turn-down dessert especially if it's on the house! Ás they say, there's always room for dessert!

The surprise dessert was bread pudding with vanilla cream sause. Simple yet delicious! It was really good! This dessert was served freshly baked out of the oven;  with the sweet smelling vanilla and cinnamon all rolled into one....



 



Italiannies @ Gurney Paragon

Italiannies has finally opened in Penang! Ever since my Uni days in KL I, when I was first introduced to Italiannies by my close friend, I've been hoping for them to open one outlet in Penang....

Yes, yes, they finally came to their senses and did...at Gurney Paragon.

I'm been busy all this while and not wanting to get caught-up in the usual jam at Gurney drive (believe me, holiday or no holiday... gurney is always jammed with cars) I had been postponing visiting this newly opened restaurant since it opened this year.

At long last, I said it's time to have some dinner at Italiannies!

So, today's just under RM100 dinner was at Italiannies. We ordered 1 appetizer, and 2 main courses. Drinks were sky juice (hehe..) plus their complimentary bread to add to the stomach-stuffing agenda... hehaha...

The appetizer was their signature stuffed mushroom

One beef lasagna - to me it was different and interesting as it was served in a (what i assume to be) cast iron pot!

One shrimp & mushroom linguine... This was the BEST of the rest! So tasty and full of flavour!

You can imagine how packed the place was when I went that day...but nice interior work, don't you think? :)
