Jetty Seafood 船头海鲜楼, Bukit Tambun Penang

Coming back to Penang is always all about food and with the fast growing development at the main land it will be good to explore in depth for places of attraction and food. 
This time around it was a cycling event on the second bridge (the longest in Southeast Asia) which brought us here for another exploration. Next time I want to visit Pulau Aman and hopefully I can do it as soon as possible.
After the historical ride at the 2nd Penang Bridge we headed to Bukit Tambun for our lunch. The first dish that was served on the table was a deep fried grouper fish. The skin of the fish was crispy and in the insider it was fresh and tender .... I like the perfectly fried fine ginger strips topping & its aroma....
Too Boey Sui - poached small octopus with its lovely chilli sauce.
A simple stir fried veg to balance and supplement the lunch.
Poached spiky snails which I like to call them as helicopter clams .... you need to use a tooth pick to pick the edible part. It's was an interesting & tasty experience.
Bamboo clams fried with ginger - another delicious seafood to satisfy us.
Tofu with seafood ingredients served in a hot claypot. 
the covered linkway into Restoran Jeti (Jetty Seafood Restaurant).
Next to the restaurant is a cockle collection house where cockles are washed before sending off to the market.

The restaurant has a beautiful view into the water with its fishing boats harbouring on a raining day.

Gee Seng Seafood Restaurant @ Bukit Tambun, Penang

It is a holiday season now and time to get the family to visit my mother back in Penang with our good neighbour, the Ung’s family. After a quick stop and lunch at a shop next to Thean Chun at Ipoh Old town, we left for Tambun for some seafood snack.

Bukit Tambun is located at one of the river mouth near Penang Island but it is on the main land side. And somewhere in Bukit Tambun we ended up in this restaurant, “Restoran Makanan Laut Gee Seng”. A place with thousand of house flies…….. I guess this is the main characteristic of this place.
The poached helicopter clam, I enjoyed picking the clam with the tooth picks and tasted very good with the sambal belacan.

Crabs fried with salted egg were delicious and fresh.

The steamed scallop though small in size but it was succulent and fresh.

The steamed big mantis prawns with roe were very tasty but were the most expensive among all the dishes we ordered. Just be careful about it.

Good snack but Zuyi don’t seem to like seafood and the house flies ready put him off.

These four members love their seafood.

Somehow psychologically I felt that my toes were uneasy, probably it’s some kind of inflammation coming up, uric acid going up, gout coming soon so on and so forth….not now please as I was thinking maybe after this Penang makan trip…..
