Try it out when in Penang and come out a winner in both taste and value for money.
Overall, Max enjoyed the Hokkien Mee as he found the broth to be well-balanced. However, Ming found the broth to be lacking in umami.
Penang is food paradise and one of the must haves is the Hokkien Mee (also known as Prawn Mee in Kuala Lumpur). If you look for the Best Hokkien Mee in town, you'd definitely come across the legendary 888 Hokkien Mee at Lebuh Presgrave (3rd Street) in Georgetown, Penang. Based on our experience, it's definitely the best we've had.
很过瘾，好多好多的配料任君选。
Overall, burger was nice but on a personal preference level, we would hoped for presence of onions and more shredded vegetables being added. One more thing we could not understand is the absence of egg. Bearing a premium price of RM 6.50 (normal chicken burger) yet egg was absence, this is something we could not understand.
I guess for the past 4 months, anything related to cheese is a crazy big hype. It is the same as when I was at Penang past 2 weeks and decided to make a visit to this new crazy hype or we all known as our classic street burger or ramlee burger in Penang is now evolve to another level. Street Grill, Burger Bakar that is located at Sungai Pinang, Penang is a classic burger bakar version that is infuse with chese! Only operating for about 2 months and the hype is over the roof.
Here's the location.
Char Koay Kak in Reservoir Garden is serving one of the best in Penang due to the char grill flavor and savory of the delicious char koay kak.
Frying the oyster omelet for more than 20 years, the owner of the stall is always busy frying at night time. The oysters are big and juicy covered with the flavorful omelet, this dish is so unforgettable and it make you want to come back for more.
[Pork-free, Muslim-friendly] Uncle, kopi ping ikat tepi tapau satu! Starbright Coffee serves traditional coffee from a cart on Lebuh Noordin.
We order hot too. to my own preference, the Ice cold coffee is a must have. Love the aroma, of it that gives you a very unique finishing. Sort of like sourness is quite close to lemon which is kind of different level of acidic. Best of all, this is our local coffee. I believe there are a few mixture of coffee powder in it to make it such a great drink.
If you love spicy, do prepare to be numb, drench in sweat and tears keep dripping. Its super spicy and usually I mix it with the one without spicy to get the mild spicy taste.
I believe you can see how much effort been put it to maintain the freshness of the fruit by judging on the amount of ice they have added on. We think fruits are best to go with their original sauce.
As for the freshly cut fruits, the choices are way more than the usual Rojak, the special ones are definitely Jack Fruit, Cherry Tomatoes, Papaya and Water Apple. The freshness of the fruits was successfully preserved thanks to the massive usage of ice cubes to maintain the temperature. Truly refreshing to have a skewer or two under the scorching hot sun.
The chapati is fluffy, moist and keeps nicely soft for a long period of time, thanks to Mamu's years of experimentation on the best combination of water and different varieties of flour. The roti jala, on the other hand, has a crepe-like softness as he uses lots of eggs in the batter.
The roti jala was just decent but the chapati did justice to its reputation. Thin, well puffed with a delightful char aroma (not charcoal but gas was used though), it was light yet with a pleasant chew. We mopped up copious amount of the sweet, spicy sambal sardin with every bite.
The Chapatis, flat unleavened breads made with the combination of atta flour (grinded whole wheat flour) and water, mildly toasted on a preheated dry skillet (tava). Thus, it’s and fiber-rich and low in cholesterol, making the bread healthy for just everyone, especially those with diabetics. The Roti Jala (Netted Bread or Lacy Crepe) on the other hand, is a local delicacy, especially during the fasting month in Malaysia. The mixture prior to being molded on a preheated skillet, “screwpine” brushed with oil, consists of flour, eggs, milk, salt, turmeric powder (coloring) and water. Both these delicacies would go well with any curry dishes.
Overall, this stall may have its loyal fans but we won’t be one of them. Thankfully, we only queued 45 minutes for this. If you fancy rojak on the (very) sweet side – this stall might be worth a visit, but we advise coming at night for a shorter queuing time. As for us, this will be our last visit.
Looking forward for its braised chicken feet and braised pig stomach which only offers in the weekends.
The Koay Teow Soup was good but not great. Soup is lightly scented but as we consumed it, the taste started to build up. It was scantly topped with slices of duck meats that hardly justify its higher price tags. If you prefer a bolder taste, add some pepper, soy sauce and chili to spice it up. Probably this is one of the most expensive hawker Koay Teow Soup we ever had in Penang.
we spotted a really good Nasi Campur located in Balik Pulau.
On the other corner, Koay Teow Soup has been running their business since the father's generation. The taste still nothing changes since then the broth's natural sweetness brings up the Koay Teow Soup flavor. For those that miss the real Penang Street food those days, this is the place to list down on the checklist.
Wahap is a classic stall at Jalan Dato Keramat that is selling Murtabak and also Roti Canai. This humble little stall is located just opposite Pos Office Dato Keramat. Serving delicious Murtabak and also special Roti Sarang Burung (Birdnest), the price of the dishes here is very reasonable. This place is a must to visit for those that love murtabak or roti canai.
rasa Char Koay Teow Basih di sini, sedap !
You can choose to have either white rice or tomato rice, then pick your favorite dishes from the wide selections available. Of course, follow the locals' way and drench your rice with a variety of curries to give it an unique flavour. On top of that, the Nasi Tomato is affordable in price and would not hurt your budget much.
The satay stall at new lane food corner is one of the few pork stay stalls in Penang that sells pork meat. The satay stall here is the branch of Batu Maung which has been around for some time. The taste of the satay is slight sweet taste with a touch of spiciness. The peanut gravy is packed with peanut flavor and is very rich and creamy.
Located along the quaint streets of Jalan Baru Balik Pulau is a culinary treasure that has withstood the test of time - Laksa Pak Aaq. For more than five decades, this unassuming eatery has been a steadfast purveyor of classic and traditional Malay-style Laksa, preserving the rich flavors and cultural heritage of the region.
Serving with shark meat slices and pickle radish, this salty porridge is so flavourful and delicious. It is great to have this on a hot day. The braise egg and intestine are also not to be missed as these have been cooked for long hours.
The taste of the curry mee is milky, packed with coconut milk flavor, savory and spicy. I love the thick and aroma soup that make this curry mee delicious.
