Sri Nibong Cafe, this coffee shop is located at the entrance to Taman Sri Nibong. There are many nice delicacies here. One of the famous and not to be missed out, Koay Teow Thng here. it has been operated for over 30 years. The soup is packed with pork flavor and topped with minced meat and wolf herring fish balls. The option for adding on with egg is offered before being served. The Char Koay Teow by Ah Teong is also one of the great Penang food that must order. The wantan mee here is also surprisingly good and according to the owner, this stall has been operated for over 20 years.

Hokkien Mee Stall in Bobo Cafe is serving one of the most delicious Hokkien in Penang and is well acclaimed by many people. The soup of the Hokkien Mee here is thick and ended with a touch of sweet ending. Besides the Hokkien Mee, the iced coffee here is also one of the specialties that are served in the consented milk can container.
A Locals’ Favourite Breakfast Spot In Penang
The Walnut Cheese Cake is very good...you must try if you are here!!
除了人类的食物和甜点，这里也有售卖狗狗的菜点。
Spaghetti Aglio E Olio – RM18.90 – You can never go wrong with this dish. For me, I will always order this to determine the food quality of the cafe. This strong garlic-flavoured spaghetti was not a disappointment and the portion was enough to fill up my tummy. It was cooked with lots of garlic, bacon, mushrooms and sprinkled with herbs and cheese powder.
这家咖啡馆可说是Hidden Gem in Balik Pulau!!!
Serving unique butter coffee for almost a century, Bee Ghah coffee shop is still up and running. Passing down to the 2nd generation. Mr. Teoh owner is the last person that takes over the baton. No person will be taking over this shop after this. This classic and nostalgic place that served simple and nice breakfast also served delicious Nasi campur for morning and evening. The toasted "Bengali" bread with kaya and butter served to dip into the butter coffee to eat is one of Penang's ways of eating breakfast. I sincerely hope this shop will have another generation that keeps this lifestyle going.
So, the next time you’re looking for a hidden gem to explore in Penang, make your way over to Bee Ghah Kopitiam. Maybe when you have a sip of the Kopi Butter, you’ll never look at ordinary coffee the same way ever again.
I personally feel that the price of the Char Kuey Teow is slightly more expensive too but it does have two very big prawn inside it, making it still acceptable.
Here's the location.
The chicken rice stall offers a combination of roasted chicken, roasted pork, and char siew drenched in a very bold taste soy sauce, which makes all the differences in taste. Even having the rice alone with the sauce is a total indulgence. Char Siew is excellent here, chicken is good while roasted pork is average. Mix the savoury chili here to the plate and it gives a total elevation of the taste.

This is my plate of Char Kway Teow which I share with my friend. It costs about MYR8.50 nett I think but I am not sure. It has very little wok hei but I am fine with that as I don't care much for wok hei. I like the prawns a lot. They are juicy and not crunchy at all. I dislike prawns that are crunchy. By default 3 prawns are provided. This char kway teow stall is known for its bigger prawns. I would like to eat this again when I visit Penang but I doubt my friend will bring me here again.
Pride of the Ipohan- Ipoh Nga Choy Kai/ Ipoh Chicken Rice can now be found at Relau area... no less. The place is especially famous amongst the factory employees and would be most packed during lunch hours. The most attractive factor apart from the above-average taste would be their extremely wallet-friendly prices... I mean, where can you find a bowl of Hor Fun at Rm 1.50 and a huge serving of blanched Sprouts at Rm 3? Locating the place can be a little tricky for the uninitiated, while you are driving from Bukit Jambul towards Relau area, after the traffic light right in front of sPICE Arena, go straight and before you hit the second traffic light, Beng Aun Coffee Shop is on your right. The Chicken Rice stall is housed inside Beng Aun Coffee Shop.
We enjoyed the way how the Maggi was fried - slightly wet and fried with egg, nice seasoning and topped with a round egg, which egg yolks ooze upon probing it. To our surprise, the fried maggi noodle also served along with a few slices of fried fish fillets.
A cup of coffee with latte art is expensive, and mostly you could get it at a cafe with nice setting only. However, if you have time, try this local kopitiam style coffee with latte art at Taman Bendera Cafe in Relau. The owner, Mr. Walter aspired to establish his own cafe one day later, yet he started small by practising his skills on brewing a cup of rich local coffee with latte art.
Braised pork belly are perfectly cook to flavor, generous portion of pork belly meat covering whole plate of rice.
As for the dried pan mee, I felt the taste is slightly blend but after added with some soup in it, the taste makes it more flavourful.
Simple options of menu, both thin and flat noodle have the option of dry and soup. Portion came with the option of small and big, big appetite people can request for extra large though. If you are a fans of their fish ball, can add on with fish ball soup too.
店里的环境挺舒服的，有户外和室内座位；很适合也朋友聚会聊天哦！
On a personal preference, the fried maggi noodles here is one of the many we have came across that we truly enjoyed. It is fried to a bit moist, and the chef put onions and shallots to spice up the noodles. Although there are various ingredients available for add-on, the price could go really to the extent for RM 15 - RM 20 per bowl, thus we enjoyed to have it just with decently fried fish fillet.
