haha.. look so delicious~~
can also try out curry mee, pancakes n char koay teow
at Cathay hawker.. in pulau tikus.. near Eon bank

nasi kandar oso nice

normally i go Gurney Drive eat at Song River.

can I spam my blog links too

The food there pawns. Too bad they sell it in small portions. I always have to get second helpings.

im watering

how bout penang char kueh teow?

or prawn mee?

any suggestion where to go if wanan have a trip?

Put la some map on how to go

in my opinion...gurney drive's food is not tat good compared to other places..

yeap map would be nice

i got map but my map mostly klang valley.

song river is at Gurney Drive, just drive you can see the name wan la.

Penang Tua Pui also have map on the blog.

as for CKT - the one i had is at Pulau Tikus area. not sure shop name. cheap and nice.

i am coming to penang~~~~~

hmm.. i think i will post a series of the important information here at coming weeks....

it will be helpful to get the map here too.... we will try our best to great a thread with full of info about Penang Food at Penang

ohya.. n northern beach food r nice too~~

I just returned from Penang. The fried kuey teow at Gurney Drive is simply delicious - with large-sized prawns and fresh taugeh.

There r a few shops i.e sister char koay teow at McCalister rd - Go for the morning one, afternoon fried by another sister no good. They served "r koay" - Yam cake and also steam otak otak

Abu Siti Lane - There a famous ICe Kacang n Char koay teow but u got wait very long n self service. And very expensive compare to KL. U probably pay from RM5.00

New Lane - open at nite. Plenty of hawlers food here. CKT n chee cheong fun is very good here too. Is near Sunway Hotel Penang

The Gurney Drive Fried kuey teow is design for tourist only, big prawn to chop your head, and not original style (More like Fried Prawn than Fried Kuey Teow, since too much prawn for me)
Go Penang Bukit Mertajam Duck Egg Fried Keow Teow is the best!

This hawker stall sells good and tasty nasi lemak. Three choices = nasi lemak biasa, nasi lemak ikan and nasi lemak udang. Only RM1.50 per pack. I tried nasi lemak udang - N.I.C.E. with three large prawns and tasty gravy. Forgotten the place...somewhere around Masjid Kapitan Keling.

Ok. I think hawker food in Penang very boring and generic. Here's my list of the exceptions:

CHINESE FOOD:

Koay teow soup -

Sg Nibong not very good these days. Std dropped drastically.
Best i had and i will stand by it is Jelutung parallel long road to Jalan Perak. Corner traffic light before Shell. Atap shops. Only at night but need to go early or have to wait damn long. Can cook with Pompret. REALLY REALLY SUPERB!

Hokkien Mee (aka Prawn mee) -

I think the one called Greenhouse on Jalan Burma (?) really good. Famous already. The same recipe in Red Garden as well which is opposite Soho.

Teow Chew Thai Style Mee/Soup/etc -

Ranggoon Rd. which is parallel to Lorong Selamat. Opposite tea house near the end of the road. Lunch. AWESOME STUFF!!

Fire roasted chicken wing/drumstick -

By far 1 of the best you will ever have in M'sia. Gurney drive, shop called Song River. Night time. MY FAVOURITE!
Same place, 10:30pm onwards, the grilled seafood is AWESOME!

Steamboat (the traditional teow chew way) -

Goh Huat Seng. I think kimberly street near Komtar.

Chee Cheong Fun with Har Kou (prawn paste) -

The one in Genting, island glades off greenlane is the BEST! very smooth.




WESTERN FOOD:
Penang is a very poor choice for western food. Even Ipoh trumps it hands down! But the one i recommend are..

Bella Italia - Jalan Burma. Quite authentic. They make their own pasta.

Jones st. coffee shop - std western stuff - off kelawei rd. corner by Shell before 1-Stop. Good price, big portion. Love the oxtail soup there. I think it's better than that corner house turned restaurant near Gurney Plaza.

Northam Beach Cafe - Mexican stall. The chef is really Mexican! His wife (chinese) runs it now. Good stuff.

Too bad there are no good steaks in Penang.
