I went to Penang with my wife last week.Since CKT is my favourite hawker food,i am determined to try as many version as possible(why not,this is CKT birthplace)

I did some research as usual and came out with the list below:- (taste is subjective ya)

1)Lorong Selamat (Red hat auntie)
-RM11 per plate
-Seriously hot(high heat),full of wok hei.I have to wait a few minutes only can eat (normally i just eat when served,no problem).Ingredients are fresh,taste is good
-Coffeshop auntie showed black face when i ordered 2 glass of plain water (RM1.40)
-Auntie handles one wok,another young guy handles one wok.i saw that guy smoking while frying the kuey teow.
-Wont return

2)Ah Leng senior (Ayer Itam)
-RM14 per plate (add mantis prawn)
-The spiciest CKT of all that i tried in Penang
-Ingredients are fresh,taste is good
-Maybe will return
-There is a loh bak stall in the same premise.Taste not bad la,price very reasonable.RM7 for my portion is a steal.In KL easily RM10 above

3)Kedai Kopi Bee Hong(opposite First Avenue mall)
-RM6 if not mistaken,with duck egg
-The thinnest kuey teow (for frying,not for soup)i’ve tried so far.So can absorb flavour and wok hei very well
-Actually my wife wanna go shopping and eat tang yuen at this coffeeshop.So can say i just stumbled into a gem,haha
-Surely will return.Why not?reasonable price,no need queue like crazy.

4)Hua Soon (Simpang,Taiping)
-Try this on the way back to KL
-RM4.40 with duck egg,served on large green leaf
-The old uncle frying with high heat from charcoal with an antique fan.Can see fireworks like frying Hokkien Mee.
-Not salty enough for me.Add a few drops of soy sauce then is ok.
-Con9lan7firm will return.RM4.40,apa lagi cina mau

Will go to Penang again this June/July,specifically to Balik Pulau for durian.So will take this opportunity to try other famous stalls such as :-

1)Sister’s
2)Siam road
3)Tiger
4)KTG

Penang lang have anything to add?all suggestions are welcome.I can use as reference for my next trip

Sister's nobody go liao.
Can try ah leng datuk keramat.

My favorite is siam road. Sometimes weekend not open and be prepared to queue.

I like tiger also, but my family not so.

Lorong selamat got another stall, a bit further up from red hat auntie. I go there sometimes. Price a bit cheaper than red hat auntie.

Sister’s now are managed by second generation is it?

The lorong selamat other stall is KTG right?google man with orange long sleeve

Lorong selamat can fuck off. Rude bitch

Oh yes, should be KTG.
Sister's every time i pass by, nobody inside.

Deswai don’t be LCLY too much. Penang lang don’t eat there, words spread far enough even tourist don’t give a duck.

hello RT

Siam Road unker?

Ptui lah.

I fried also better.

Oily shit. Eat already die faster.

Just go any hawker center and eat the CKT. Good enough. No need big prawn la...as long as the pork lard is fragrant and they fry with very hot charcoal then can go d. Don't overbloat those famous CKT sellers ego.

Siam road CKT is the best, no need go try others.
