Hameed Pata Mee Goreng
The sotong taste sweet and spicy at the first few mouthful. Then it tasted spicy all the way until I finished the noodle. If you are a sotong lover, you should definitely try this out.
d_luaz postedSuperbMy wife which is not an Indian Mee lover love this as well, so I would say it's really good. I'm not a fan of sotong on mee, but this is nicely done.
Teo Chew Cendol
The best chendol in Penang for years and still number 1
d_luaz postedSuperbI found nothing too fantastic, but my wife love it. Still a nice drink under the hot sun, standing and eating by the road side is an experience, and very affordable.
Old Green House Restaurant (老青屋)
d_luaz postedSuperbI am not a fan of Hokkien mee, but this is tasty. The stall worker will ask if you want to add many things (10+ of them), so mine come up to RM 12 stuffed with all kind of ingredients, but it's good. Without additional stuff, it's less then RM 5 per bowl.
Hot Bowl Nyonya Delights
d_luaz postedGoodInteresting taste of white curry mee, it's good :)
Seow Fong Lye Cafe 小蓬莱茶室
d_luaz postedSuperbMy wife love the Char Koay Kak, while I like the Chee Cheong Fun (RM 2 for 2).
Joo Hooi Cafe 愉園茶室
d_luaz postedSuperbDecent duck egg fried keoy teow from RM 6+. The famous chendol is just next door, but the shop charge a surcharge to bringing the chendol in.
Kheng Pin Cafe 群賓茶餐室
You can find different types of hawker food there like Char Koay Teow, Loh Bak, Yu Sang Kai Chok (Porridge), Chicken rice and others. Kheng Pin café is an old style café where you will still find those old fashioned marble tables and wooden chairs.
d_luaz postedSuperbLobak, crunchy and not oily. Less than RM 10 for 2 person.
Toh Soon Cafe 多春茶座
This place is suitable for breakfast and also tea time. This is one of the gem in Penang Island. It’s just a simple stall located at a small alley in Campbell Street but it’s always crowded with people. The coffee is the famous item in this cafe too, do order a cup if you drop by this cafe.
d_luaz postedSuperbSimple breakfast with coffee and toast and half boil egg, but it's a charming environment with a good vibe. Nasi Lemak available as well.
Ayu Mee Udang
d_luaz postedSuperbVery far from Georgetown, but the Mee Udang soup is really tasty with 4 big prawns.
New World Park Food Court
LEE ENG LAI, now in his late fifties, recalls that his grandfather Lee Kar Tee and grand uncle Lee Ah Keat started selling ice kacang as a roving stall in the Jalan Rangoon area in 1923. His father, Ah Kang (Kar Tee’s son), later inherited the stall and moved it to a permanent position. Eng Lai, his brother Eng Huat and sister Ah Kee (above) have been involved in running the stall since the 1960s, when it was next to a snooker bar. Originally, in the 1920s, a bowl of basic ice kacang cost half a cent, now it is RM1.50. Early in 2007, the stall moved into the new New World Park (Sin Sei Kai) food court opposite with ample parking.
d_luaz postedGoodTried the famous Swatow Lane ice kacang, it's okay but not worth a detour.
Kedai Kopi Lam Ah
d_luaz postedGoodFried oyster is crunchy and unique, worth a try. Didn't try the beef noodle.
Kafe Heng Huat 興發茶室
Kuey Teow was fried under charcoal fire.
d_luaz postedSo soI think it's too overpriced (starting from RM 8.50), and pay RM 3 for the parking next door. Taste wise it's okay, with 3 big prawn, but nothing too fantastic to justify premium pricing.
TiPsy Brew O'Coffee
Serving the finest specialty roasters, Tipsy Brew O’Coffee brew by hand using syphon, hand-drip, french press and any other apparatus they deem worthy on the day.
d_luaz postedSuperbTipsy is certainly getting more popular nowadays, probably thanks to their breakfast offerings on top of their cakes and coffee. I love having breakfast or after meal coffee here :)
