I come, I see, I Hunt and I Chiak Its mainly about food, some fashion, movie and the 'lengang' days of me~

In Penang, most people consider it a food heaven that cannot be deny, that one of the hottest place to dine at night and you love to rob a dinner table for your family and friends, which is a very normal things to do in a coffee shop, then you must not miss one of the famous place to dine Bee Hooi Restaurant. A place where you can find simple hawker food enough to kill off your hunger and craving that filled with a few famous stall, with cheap food yet good.

If you come here during public holiday or weekends, you might have to be a efficient robber.

A stall that I would not miss is this Frankie's Pizza with in the standard menu, 'Hawaiian Chicken, Tuna, Seafood, Mutton, and a few more. '

One of my personal favourite in the stall is 'Hawaiian Chicken or Mutton with extra cheeze topping' yum~

With my 'Mutton Pizza with extra Cheeze' RM 7-8 (Small) is well toast and ready to be eaten. Please do not compare the one with the restaurant as this is the kopitiam version as the crust might be thicker and hard a bit but after toast it well with well marinated ingrediant, its one of the best to get. Nice melted cheeze, with soft mince mutton with onion in it. Recommended~

For oyster’s lover, ‘Fried Oyster’ is one of the dish you would not want to miss. I find the fried oyster here is very classic, that fried it in soft layer with egg, mashed it a bit and top it up with Oyster. Its very aromatic and dipping it with the Chili, its just perfect.

My plate of 'Fried Oyster' RM 6 as the price ranges from RM6-RM15

One of the famous hawker in the kopitiam is this ‘Char Koey Teow’ stall run by the whole family, as the mom prepare the ingredient, the dad fried on it and the son deliver. You can be expected to wait from easily 10minutes to 30 minutes depending on the crowd as this mini hawker stall did feature in a few newspaper as seen in front of the stall which I forgot to snap it.

One of the good ‘Char Koey Teow’ to make it delicious is by using charcoal to fried along and plate by plate to ensure the koey teow and the ingredient are fried evenly. To eat the best ‘Char Koey Teow’ is always must go along with ‘Duck Egg’ if the place do offer and fried with charcoal.

My simple plate of 'Char Koey Teow with Duck Egg' RM4 which is my cheaper and nicer compare to the famous one Lorong Selamat. I do have big prawns too on my plate with well fried with wok hei, and dry with each koey teow is not that sticky and aroma of duck egg is well blend.

Then my mom ate ‘Koey Teow Theng’ RM3 which is a simple dish which is definately taste alot better than most of the KL stalls.

Besides this mention above, there are other famous stall too, like the ‘Loh Mee’ and a few other stalls. . . With no complain that this kopitiam serve quite a good range of food, worth recommending.

I have been reading a lot of status this morning, yeah, I know its hard to drag our ass to work since most of the people start to work today yet with very heavy Chinese New Year Mood and bombard with tons of work after a few days off, its kinda pain in the ass. Since now I am at Penang, let me start off with Penang Street Food first. This location had always been my all time favorite area to eat which I had been long time did not visit this place. Its a very cheap place to eat in.

It is usually pack with local crowds after 7.30pm. It is advisable to go early or if you would want to enjoy the local feel with standing and waiting for tables and manning your area then anytime would be good. Most of the hawkers here had been operating for more than 10 years already and its had been a signature area.

Let's start off with the street famous Char Koey Teow. In this stall, its famous that you can add on additional item, such as Mantis Prawn, Chinese Sausage, Duck egg or prawns. It is best that they uses charcoal to fried, the taste would be different.

This is my plate of ‘Char Koey Teow add with Duck Egg and Mantis Prawn’. Perfectly fried, dried and a bit sticky yet with wok hei and duck egg build in different aroma in it, is something which I expect. RM5

Next a stall which I would not miss is the 'Tong Sui Stall'. Cost RM1-RM3.50

'Almond Soup Tong Sui' is the signature of this stall. Not many people enjoy the taste of it but I have learn the fair taste, very thick in almond taste, not very watery yet add on with the yau char kuih, I can just still imagine the taste of it. Good for health as what I have been told by my grandmother when I was young.

Next is the 'Cham' I always had too. Clear tasty non very sweet tong sui base that goes along very well after eating of so many street food.

'Red Bean Soup' that had been boild to build up the aroma yet the bean is not soft and a bit solid as that is how the preserve the tasty'ness of it.

Heading to next stall is the 'Koay Teow Soup', again as not only they sell only the noodle yet you can add on additional dish with their famous signature 'Cham' (consist of egg, chicken feet, pig intestine and taufu) or if you do not like som eof the item, you can just order randomly.

'Dry Koey Teow' taste quite good, not very salty as expected yet the koey teow is silky smooth yet a bit oily make it taste good. RM3

One of my favorite ‘Pig Intestine’, been boil and steam very very soft, yet very juicy when bite it as the watery home cook soup soy base had made it very aromatic.

Another stall which is very famous with local folks is this stall that you must not miss. ‘Kuih Chap’ that serve with homemade kuih style as noodle base yet add in all the Duck spare part in it. Besides their famous signature, they also do serve porridge which is a top notch too.

can add on this part if you like.

This are all the ingrediants that going to add into the bowl.

Here comes my very 'Kuih Chap' with all the duck spare part.

With the home made kuih that replace noodle which is a must for 'Kuih Chap'. I just miss this alot, very aromatic soup base that filled with duck and salty taste yet the meat of the duck is very soft, and my mouth watering meal. 1 bowl is enough to kill me off. Small RM5

Another stall that I discover which is the 'Belacan Fried Chicken' which walk a bit further down from that 3 stalls.

Deep fried as very crispy on the edge, yet the chicken meat is very filled with belacan taste as I buy it hot from the wok.

One of the thing I fell in love with this stall is the 'Deep Fried Salted Fish Taufu'. Although its not similiar like 'Chou Taufu' but it something I love. Deep fried till the outer layer is solid yet when you bite on it, you can taste the softness of the taufu yet salted fish aroma is there and dip with the chili sauce given, is something I could not ask for. RM 2-RM 3 sell in 10 pieces.

This is one of my favorite Penang Street Food area. Recommended~

I did heard about at Bukit Mertajam there is one famous Char Koay Toew stall located along a road side. Then went over to find my friend she do not really know the place so ended up in this stall which is she familiar with. It was quite late though around 1.30am looking for my supper over the mainland..hehehe

I do not know what is the name of the stall call but then there is a Chinese name I also do not know how to interpret.

When the plate was serve, I was quite shock that this is actually my very first time I seen a 'Char Koey Teow' add egg is the bulls eye type instead of fried it along. The taste is so so, nothing to boast a bout yet it is a bit oily yet cannot duck egg been fried doesnt taste much diff compare with normal egg.

It has been ages since last I came here, it was during my college here and used to hang out here for tea time as I was studying at Disted College during year 2001. Calculations come out around 8 years since last I visit this place. It was the ah pek Char koey Teow still the same person. Luckily was not closed. This place is what we called 'Chiu Chang Ka', direct translation Under the Tree located at Pulau Tikus area.

This is the stall that stay at the same place for the past donkey years. One good thing about this stall is he uses charcoal to fried it is always better to those than using gas, fried by one plate at the time. The special about this uncle stall is he uses Duck egg, upon request. Must try it. Taste much better.

Tadaa, this is the uncle 'Char Koey Teow with duck egg'. Have the wok taste, nicely fried and not too dry yet the si ham is alot, with chinese sausage and only RM3.50.

After leaving Penang for not too long, and I ordered Teh O Ice, and guess how much is it, Only RM0.90. Wow, didnt know still exist with this kind of pricing and the funny thing is when the lady come and told me its RM0.90, then I like 'Hah, 90cents ah'. she like yeah la, you come out from hutan or too long never come out eat already iziit. Lol..It has been long long time since pay for a drink less than RM1.

This place also famous for Economy bee hoon with fried popiah on top, unfortunately it was closed that day, or I do not know still exist or not.
