Chulia Street Hawker Food

Hawker center

👍 The row of street food has been moved from the main road (Chulia Street) to the side road which I think is a good idea.

NASI DALCA & BRIYANI KHALIS

Malaysian restaurant

👍👍 I have stayed in Penang for decades but I am not sure why it took me so long to discover this place. Super sedap nasi dalca and definitely a must try if you have not tried before. I ordered ayam bawang, pickled cucumber and onions and one organ part of a cow (not sure if it is lung or other part). T...

Ah Leng Char Koay Teow

Hawker stall

👍👍 Good weekend to be visiting Penang. It’s the weekend just after “kwai chit” aka Hungry Ghost Festival (15th day of the 7th month on the Chinese Lunar calendar). Many ethnic Chinese tend to stay home so Penang is “ghostly” quiet. 😊 Has anyone seen Tong Hooi Kopitiam, where “Famous Ah Leng Char Ko...

👍 If there's one word to describe this place, it would be "MURAH"!! Oh my word.. Me and my wife was so shocked when we see the total amount for 7 adult makan nasi campur.. Gila murah..

Nasi Kandar Ahmad

Malaysian restaurant

👍👍 This is a Malay-styled nasi kandar. The kuah mixture brought out what's actually great about nasi kandar with a harmony of the multitude of curries and the addition of black sauce. The beef is both flavorful and tender enough but the chicken is slightly dry. The curry fish and fish roe was sublime....

Medan Ikan Bakar Teluk Tempoyak

Food court

👍 Every Grab driver we asked for the best Sea Food in Penang recommended Adnan Seafood by Teluk Tempoyak or Nurul Seafood (I can’t remember the exact location). We tossed the coin and decided to go to Teluk Tempoyak; we ordered a couple of plates of seafood, fish, squid, and clams, a mixed type of sea...

Dinas Bistro

Malaysian restaurant

👍 Came here with the family. The menu is filled with a variety of choices - there are local (Thai influence) food and some western options. We ordered the set meal with fish, shrimp, calamari and vegetable option. It was not bad but not great either. The portions were large and prices were okay. But t...

The Safe Room

Steak house

👍👍 Loved the maharaja fried rice, very hearty portion. The rice, rendang and fried chicken thigh were all expertly prepared and delicious. Mushroom soup was to die for, possibly the best I've ever had, don't miss it! The linguine was unfortunately overcooked, and the sauce was a bit too watery. Ice cr...

槟榔律驰名仁哥炒粿条 PENANG ROAD FAMOUS JIN KOR CHAR KUEY TEOW

Restaurant

😐 Limited seating and sharing table if u are with a small group is usually a must. As for the food here, the char koay teow is good, the cendol is good but the asam laksa and popiah you can definitely find better ones around. Parking can be a challenge here but there is an open air parking across from...

Penang Road Famous Teochew Cendol

Malaysian restaurant

🫤 One of the many street food eating places you can find on the island. Use to be tasty and nice but has lost out on flavour. Now its more of a tourist joint, locals has since shy away mainly due to the inferior quality and the pricing. It has become too commercialize that the originality is gone. If...
