【槟城】Smoky Jack, Upper Penang Road [Closed]

Another gathering on weekend. Hehe! almost every week we joined together~eat,play and walk around anywhere~XD

Actually we had a couple portrait shooting on 8am at Youth Park!!
Fs decided to made a "sunny doll" to pray for good weather last night. 
Sweat~It's raining again today morning~it's a failure methods~><
*maybe I asked him use underwear made... ==*
Erm... We forced to canceled the model shooting again~sob sob~
So, we all keep continue our slumber~~hmm~ hmm~ hmm~~

Rynn and Micheal reached my hostel at 11.30am~
We all are monster hunter addict-er, and sure must play FEW round of missions first~XD
We headed to having our lunch at 1pm~Smoky Jack!! 
I have been eying on this place ever since I saw it from foodtok. 
Finally we made a trip here to check it out. 
It is a western food restaurant called Smoky Jack which can be found along Upper Penang Road. It is just next to Sega Fredos. 
What caught my eye was the sign of ribs and also the weird woody-look-like-tree-roots it had at the entrance.

Inside the Restaurant you would be amazed by the way it is designed.
It is very dark and how they did it up really made it one of a kind.
Today my pictures turned out lousy but this is what I manage to salvage of the inside of the restaurant.


Inside the Restaurant it pretty dark and this is how it looks like. It still has the tree roots everywhere on the wall. The chairs here, I name them lotus as don't they just looks like lotus petal .Haha~It was so cool!!
Took a looked up onto the ceiling and your jaw will dropped when you realized that there were literally dozens of old, battered doors hanging down on top of you. 
ceiling,made of doors
The interior designer must either taken elements from everyone’s worst nightmares or had a burst of creative genius when the concept for Smoky Jack was first visualized.*admire*

After settling down in an round table, I read through their menu. 
The menu is different with the website I saw before.
But It's not mind the foods are still same and reasonable.
They had appetizers such as paste and rice, salad and soup,main course and drinks.
After giving not much of a thought, I got my mind made up to try their set lunch, BBQ Pork Ribs(RM18). My sweetie choose Grill Salmon (RM18). And the other guys choose Golden Blue(RM18).

Set Lunches comes in category:
Set Lunch : RM 15 - RM23
All set comes with a main + tea/cordial drink + salad/soup of the day + garlic bread  + dessert 

The salad, consisting of lettuce, purple cabbage and thinly sliced carrot did not look invigorating at first sigh.

Salad
Like-wise, the garlic bread was commendable too for having the right balance of outer crispiness and inner softness. 
The garlic and butter topping was toasted just right and went well with the vegetable soup.
