Penang Hawker Food

Penang, the heaven of hawkers food. Some of the fares are koay teow thng (果條湯), below. This comes with fish balls, duck/chicken meat, fish cake slides and at times internal organs...



The Penang curry mee is always mouth watering. This can be found at Lorong Seratus Tahun (off Macalister Road), New World park hawkers centre or the Bee Hooi kopi tiam in Pulau Tikus.


Penang Lor mee is another fare that one should not miss. It has a very thick soup based (below). The coffee shop beside the Kuan Im Teng temple in Pitt Street is always crowded, Pulau Tikus market hawkers centre or the corner coffee shop at junction of Jones and Burmah road in Pulau Tikus.
Sar Hor Fun. For lunch time, one can go to Fu Heong restaurant at Kimberley street. At night, try the Pulau Tikus hawkers centre at Market street.
Nasi Kandar breakfast? Why not, at Mustafa (Chulia Street)
Hainanese chicken rice at Cintra street (below)
All these should end at the world famous Ice Kacang at New World Park hawkers centre!!

HK Experience at Lin Heung restaurant (蓮香樓)

It will be an experience to venture into one of those typically "local Hong Kong" dim sum restaurant. One of those, Lin Heung restaurant (蓮香樓), it was opened for business during 1926.
An experience that one will never forget is that, all the tea serving waiters are dressed in white and pouring steaming hot water over the tea pot(s) in stun-dull-impressionless face.
One party might need to share (any) table of any size. Example, a 4 pax table might sit 8 or 9 pax !! But the experience it impeccable that one can cherish on.
Enjoy the Dim Sum !!



Before you leave, don;t forget to order a pack of Po Er (蒲耳茶) tea that are wrapped in traditional paper bag (below).

Home Baked Chicken Pie

Nothing beats home baked chicken pie.
Baked to perfection !!
Enough gravy for a few dip with buttered whole wheat toast

Am sure its a great dinner for Sundays
