Street Food in Penang is really some of the best food. Fisherman’s Wharf delivers some pretty good food from it’s stalls and a great view of the sea. In the end, we settled for a few things f…
The Manakeesh of Mr.Majd here is very crunchy with the delicious and appetizing topping. The Shawerma here also packed with smoky flavor while juicy inside. The price of the Manakeesh (pizza) here is also very reasonable, the 2nd piece is 50% off or buy 2 get 1 free.
Seafood lovers are not forsaken too.... the budget-watchers may visit the Lok-Lok stall to savor the range of Lok-Lok offering... served with their home-made dips while those with deeper pockets could try the baked Crabs... available in different sizes and price points. Otherwise, the BBQ Platter would satisfy both your meat cravings and seafood desire.
Here's the location.
The Kolo Mee is good.
I love the noodle used for this kolo mee.
If you are here looking for something light to eat, then their French Toast is just enough for a light breakfast with a cup of coffee. The coffee that i try here at Thor Corr Phou Zi is their Signature Coffee with Nestum Topping. The coffee is nice but the Nestum does not really add much taste to the coffee, it is special for decoration.
The Fish Meat Curry Mee is a creamy one bowl noodle in a flavorful broth with okra and eggs. It also comes with a scoop of homemade chili paste that will enhance the flavor and increase the level of spiciness. This bowl of noodles is so delicious and satisfying.
【土库铺子】的咖喱面,可是他们开店以来最受大家喜爱的。
Stir-fried yellow noodles with clams is simplistic. Done with a pleasantly sweet taste of clams and mild zingy ginger kick, the noodle is served with accompanying spicy sambal.
There are many other selections recommended by the crew, namely kappa, sotong and etc but we had a Butter Mantis Prawn (RM 12) instead. The creamy and sleekness were well balanced, giving a rich taste if you take the sauce to complement the white rice.
The 3-flavored Black Pomfret did not impress us from the appearance but it was in fact, skillfully cooked. The flesh was moist and soft while the outer parts of the fish were deep fried to a crisp... slathered with a sweet-savory sauce. It can be dangerously addictive to munch on the crisp sides of the fish or to enjoy the meaty-bite with Rice
My personal favorite here is their fried Tua Pan Koay Teow but i heard many people recommend their Curry Noodles. The Curry Noodles is spicy and you can mix with Bihun and Noodles. The serving size is not big. If you are not a fan of pork blood curd, remember to inform them not to put it in as it will always be serve with pork blood curd. Overall dining in here is nice but the service is a little slow.
As for taste wise, it appears to be lackluster for us and probably we will return if we were too lazy to commute to elsewhere for a morning dim sum.
This curry mee is white curry mee version in which the base of the soup is made of coconut milk and the taste and spices rely a lot on the curry paste. Overall this curry mee is rich and flavourful and is one of the delicious curry mee in Penang.
Classic Curry Mee – RM4, served with pork blood curds, squid slices, bean curds or ‘tao pok’, bean sprouts and the best part, the curry paste. Having curry mee as my breakfast is not my style but if a curry can seduce me to finish up the entire bowl, this is consideres one of the best curry mee to me.
The omelette is packed with charcoal fire aroma while the oysters are fresh and juicy. The combination of these two is a perfect match.
The big pot with all our selected ingredients are painted in red colour with the exception of a slight green colours from the coriander leaves. Even the okra we selected were covered in red colour also, signifying the chef really fry everything altogether with chili. Having said that, the taste of course was spicy too (we chose moderate level of spiciness).
We had Five Stars' Curry Fish Head to go with rice and their rendition skewed towards the sweeter side. The Curry fragrance and flavor were there though and the fish was fresh but just a little, oddly sweet. The consistency was good though, perfect to spoon over rice
Food here at Five Stars Restaurant is simple but tasty.
🍜 Join me on a culinary adventure as I uncover another food trail of Jawa Mee at O&N Cafe in Island Glades, Penang! 🌴 Having visited this quaint cafe three times before, I finally seized the opportunity to try their legendary Jawa Mee during my last visit.
I have been patronizing O & N Wantan Mee for decades. I used to eat this wantan mee when I was in primary school. My first blog on this wantan mee was way back in 2007 when O & N was still a stall at Delima Mas Coffee Shop. Over the years, they moved from Mandarin Cafe to owning their shop. It has been 30 years since then. I love the taste of the wantan mee here and also now they are having additional nasi lemak that is very splendid as well.
This place is packed with good food at a reasonable price. The curry mee and the koay teow thng here is also delicious and very reasonable in price. The curry mee - RM4.50 packed with coconut flavor while the chili paste is thick and spicy. The soup of koay teow thng here is packed with collagen and the for those that love pork skin and intestine this is the place not to be missed.
Ah Hwa Char Hor Fun is selling the most reasonably-priced Char Hor Fun in Penang. With RM4.50 per plate and RM5 for large size is worth the money and the portion is generous. Not just the price is reasonable, the taste is delicious and packed with wok aroma. I sincerely hope that these type of stalls will keep running with good business. Please do inform me if you know any other similar stalls so that I can help to spread the good words around.
Although it's priced at just RM4 per bowl, the noodles and ingredients given are generous. The taste of the soup is classic with a savoury touch. The soup is not too thick but it's flavourful with a balanced taste of prawn and pork ribs.
Uniquely about Sun Kee is their Char Koay Teow with Oysters. So far there are not many in Penang. Serving fresh and juicy oysters this is the place for oyster lovers. Besides the oysters, the prawns here are fresh and big too.
Sun Kee Oyster Mee is one of the shops in Penang that specialized in selling dishes with oysters. The fried oyster omelet here is so nice and the oyster is so fresh, juicy, and succulent. Another highlight is the oyster stir-fried glass noodle, it is so flavourful and savory with an indept oyster aroma. The bak kee is another dish here that has been improvised from the classic recipe, the taste suits the younger generation. The herbal soup here also must not be missed as all of them are double boiled for long hours with nice herbs fragrant.
Located beneath the sprawling canopy of a majestic tree, adjacent to the quaint Hui Wang Cafe, a culinary legacy has silently thrived for four decades. The unassuming stall is where Uncle Ah Tian, a revered figure among food enthusiasts, has diligently served up the timeless allure of Hokkien Mee. With an unwavering commitment to tradition and flavor, Uncle Ah Tian has garnered a loyal following, turning his stall into a beloved culinary landmark.
The stall in front Hooi Wang Cafe under the tree has one of the delicious and reasonably priced Char Koay Teow. RM6 for a big plate and with duck egg is hard to get in Penang nowadays. Moreover the prawns given are big and fresh.
The pan mee is instantly cooked for each order and the broth is very thick and aromatic. Each process of cooking is done with heart and sincerity. The same goes to the nasi lemak.
All other Hotpot ingredients were fresh; note-worthy ones include the Taichi Duo-Shrimp Paste and Fresh Fish Slices. The Taichi Duo Shrimp Paste has two flavors- original and spicy. Both were good and there were bits of the bouncy Shrimps in the paste.
The pleasant aroma of the hot pot, along with the clever garnishing of sesame and peanuts make it addictive further. Besides, addition of egg also increased the aroma. Somehow, the flavour offer a glimpse of Szechuan taste but has been localized to Malaysians' general taste buds.

Sin Nam Huat Chicken Rice are one of the famous Chicken Rice Chain Stalls available in Penang. Been to a few of the Sin Nam Huat Chicken Rice shops in Penang and would say you can't go wrong with them. Their Roasted Chicken is their signature dish while their roasted duck and barbecue pork is also just as good. Their home made chili sauce also is a must for condiment.
