Why Pinxin Vegan, why?! 😭 I explicitly ordered from you this rainy evening because I thought you weren’t #deathbyplastic! The food is still as good as ever & authentically #malaysianeats but it’s a shame to see this step back in terms of progress 👎 I wish there was a little more #sambal to pair with the #nasilemak because it hardly covers all the sweet #tempeh they provide 🤏 It’s #soyummy though 🤤 This is one restaurant I continue to miss every time I leave #penang 🏝️ …but you won’t ever see it on a top vegan cities list 🙄

They upped the presentation on this! 🙌 Nothing too special— just #blackfungus 👮‍♂️, #broccoli 🥦, #babycorn 🌽, and #carrot topped with a nice #umami sauce 😋 Sesame I think?

This is the perfect dish to share! Especially when paired with a nice #sidedish 🥘 This is so much more #umami than their #oriental pearl #noodles — absolute win! 🙌 Or perhaps they just upped their sodium game 😉 If anybody @ me because salt is #unhealthy one more time I swear I’m not afraid of drawing out my “hospitalised for a sodium deficiency” card smh 😤 You get the perfect amount of #tofu (3) and vegetables (a lot) 🥦 Trust me I checked all the available permutations & decided this is best 😏 Being vegan in #Penang is so easy 😮‍💨 It’s literally embarrassing that people still think they need dead animals like yikes babe uneducated is not a good look on you 🥱

Oriental Pearl Soup Mini Pot

Probably my favourite dish from what we ordered, which is sad because it was the smallest portion and the most expensive😢. This #rendang-style hericium had #tempeh, #jackfruit, and vegan anchovies, making for a rich and satisfying bite. Was it worth RM23.90? I’m not sure. #overpriced #malaysianeats

Rendang Hericium

Finally tried #lionsmanemushroom, first time ever! The texture was so interesting, and while I don’t think it was reminiscent of meat it was very chewy and enjoyable. The satay sauce was soooo good, I could have drunk it alone. Unfortunately, the serving size was just way too small for the price. Only 2 satay sticks for like 16RM…. That feels like overkill. #overpriced #satay #malaysianeats

Dark Hericium Satay Sticks

This is described as pan-friendly traditional teochew bean curd roll with yam, jicama and peanuts, served with homemade sour and spicy chilli sauce. Never had anything like this, although I did enjoy it it wasn’t my favourite thing we ordered. It was quite chewy and had a lovely crispy exterior. The portion size of this was quite good for the price (RM 15.30), compared to the other dishes we ordered (review coming). #teochew #malaysianeats #sweetdreamsaremadeofgrease

What can I say… the #vegetables were boring and #unseasoned. The sauce on top was strange and didn’t add any benefit to the dish. Besides that, it was cold. Steamed for me means that it’s warm, right? #blandfood #Broccoli was not overcooked though, #corn was fine, #carrots weren’t steamed at all, they tasted raw. The #mushrooms in the center were okay. Rm13 wasted.

Steamed Mixed Vegetables

The #satay itself was nice! Made from Lion's mane mushrooms (Hericium erinaceus). #lionsmanemushroom The sauce was good but very oily and somehow didn’t taste like #peanut, despite there being obvious peanut pieces inside. This is where the positive stops. The #rice was sticky and cold, the two pieces of #cucumber were laughable, the four slices of fried #tempeh didn’t make it better. Some #cashews and an incredibly salty #sambal completed the drama. The #papadam on top was not crispy anymore. Honestly, I expected more from this popular place. Especially for RM21. #dobetter

Really enjoyed it, might have been a tad too spicy for me but still good. Really nice takeout box too, it said it’s fully recyclable and I hope that’s true! #nasilemak #georgetownpenang
