hi uncle Elmo, i used to live in Penang for 7 yrs back in the nineties and food quality was better during those days. No cutting corners or putting profit first ! So in that sense, i am rather fortunate to have eaten a lot of Penang's classic dishes.
Rewind back a place I'm been before in penang.. I'm really love 888 hokien mee best of the best... Gurney drive .. bukit mertajam chu chap chuk my friend tapao me to eat definitely very nice but when I'm in penang I spent much time eat seafood in tambun ... very fresh and nice you should recommend
Elmo, you should have tried the Hokkien Lor Mee - i think this dish can only be found in Penang. one bowl of noodles with the combination of hokkien mee soup + lor mee gravy
My old hometown!! Thanks for the review!! I agree each town have their own specialty dishes! That’s the beauty of Malaysian food!! Trying to work out which I have not been!! Agree parking in Penang is a nightmare so you are right to get a Grab ! No hassle!!
Really enjoy all your videos with past history, ' armchair travel' from the UK till we hopefully visit all those fascinating food places. Keep up your good work!!.
Thanks for sharing your video about Penang! Love it! Hope you have more videos about Penang. I like that you include all the locations and addresses. Keep it up! 👍👍🙏
I'm rarely travel to somewhere especially penang after graduated from secondary school,always busy with smtg else,miss the days whole family travel to penang and KL
Best chee cheong porridge is at Kimberley street closer to Penang road end. Try the Hong Kong style won ton mee using bamboo stick, fried fish skins etc at Campbell street.
Another great video ... most of the spots recommended by you is really good as i hv tasted them as well and i agree with you . But you have also pointed out some new spots !.. This is be my new place to go when i am back in Penang ! Thank you for the great recommendation and keep those videos coming
For me, Penang is the best place for Chinese food in Malaysia. Sure for Chicken rice, I prefer Singapore and BKT, Klang. Should have tried the Assam Laksa in Balik Pulau, it's awesome and Ghee Hiang biscuits are great too (and I am not even into biscuits) in your list.
@@edamame5540 makes no difference that you are from Penang. List me what is good from Ipoh besides the Bean sprout and White coffee. KL? Come on, get real.
Great vid Elmo my family was supposed to visit Singapore and Malaysia in 2020 but becos of COVID cannot travel. Hopefully we can do it next year and visit all the places you mentioned!
Personally I think you are visiting the convenient and popular store. For the spirit of Penang Lang, we will choose to go to place that is tasty even it is inconvenience. Char Siew and wan tan in KL are much better, but the gravy of the Chulia street is one of the best in Malaysia. Come to Penang and try to visit around with local. You will find the differences. Anyway, I enjoy your video.
Thank you Elmo once again. Great foodie places and nice classical dishes introduced. I like the nyonya kueh as the taste at Moh Teng Pheow is still very much authentic. The size is just nice and I would agree that the surrounding / dining at that place makes it even more enjoyable. Very good Elmo. Thank you.
Laksa in Pulau Tikus behind the Shell station n Char Koay Teow too, Wan Tan Mee in Transfer Road, Koay Chiap in Paya Terubong opposite the sisters curry mee, Tiger Char Koay Teow in Carnavon Street, n Koay Teow Theng a few doors away, Oh Chien across the road at the corner coffee shop in the afternoon, nyonya kueh in Batu Lanchang Market afternoon and Tony Ais Kacang n Chendol at the same location recommended by Penangnites
Uncle Elom, thank u for this good video presentation. May i know the name of the shop n strret name of Ah Boy's Keow Theow Thing at timeline 8:25. Thsnk u
Me & my family couldnt believe the food in Gurney Drive was so bad. We went there 4 years ago, the food was bad. They charged my lougong RM35 for a bottle of sugar cane juice. We ended up the next night driving to Eden restaurant to have steaks. Other small kopitiam near kek lok si, char kuey teow was very good.
Sorry Henry guess it didn't cross my mind since all the prices were consistently cheap. I give u an indication on a cup of kopi. KL is 2.80, ipoh is 2.50 and penang only costs 2.00. That's generally how cheap penang is
Hi I do agree with you those stalls are famous in Penang... As a penangite,, If I really want to eat curry mee.. I will definitely go to the stall next to the one u ate..as for asam laksa it is well known ,,most penangites will say that the air itam dumb man laksa (哑巴）is nice and clean...
Elmo my mother from Penang and my dad from teluk anson.do Know Pauline st kwong sang cheong shop belong to my dad.next door to cheong fatt coffee shop.
@@malaysiafood328 thanks for your video. So detail , every information is there. If wanna to find food when travel, just follow your guide is more than enough! Gambateh, Elmo!
Uncle Elom, Coyld u pls let us know the street nsme for all the following: Moh Teng Pheow Nonya kueh, Wai Ku Chai Siu for roast meat, Winn' s Cafe, Kheng Pin Lobak. Thank u so much, Rena
Uncle Elom, thank u so... so much n thank u so much for highlighting where to get more info so that we can enjoy ur foodie discovery. God bless ur good effort n generosity to share what u enjoy!!!
Elmo, that's not the best or only one Chee Cheong Chok in Penang . There's one at Lebuh Kimberly that you should try. it has been around for more than 50 years.
hokkein mee is original from penang hokkein lang, so is called hokkein mee Not prawn mee , KL people only called prawn mee because they hokkein mee is black mee,
The best wanton mee in pg has no compare to Wanton mee in Ipoh n kL, their worst standard is so much better than the pg best, pg hokkien mee has lost its authentic taste, its soup is so much diluted, I enjoyed pg food in tje 60,7o n 80,since then its standard is so much deteriorating, I am a pgnite, I love pg
Penang street was so bad since more than 20 years ago....so bad until Lim Guan Eng also made noise many years ago. The only edible food are the LAST few Remaining stalls in Penang. I am from Penang so I am not biased. I have to accept that Penang food is really bad though many butthurt Penang lang still refused to accept this and continue to live in denial how bad the food is.
Best foodie "haunt" or "Hunt"? As a Penangite, I have to honestly mention that the Air Itam curry noodle definitely is not the best in Penang, all the hype is just because it's been there for a long time...
Too bad you don't speak Hokkien, it is weird to listen to Cantonese review for Penang food (LOL). I am going to assume you have a Penang friend, only locals would know all these places
@@chenbenglee Yes I agree Taiping also has delicious food just like in Penang cos some Penangites went there to start Penang food. Yes I've eaten there too. BTW I'm from Penang.
Penang hawker foods have lost its good taste, the younger generation hawkers are all not seriou to learn the trade, many ofmy friends from outstation are complaining about the food in hawker center, its mediocre to bad, be seriou in the cooking, otherwise do not boast

Thanks for ur confidence dear
17:14 怡保的云吞面也是用这种染红色的叉烧，由小吃到大，味道平平无奇，以致order都选择“净云吞面”。
离乡到了KL工作，还是保持“净云吞面”的叫法，偶尔老板力荐他家叉烧怎么好吃，我都不为所动（年少无知）；直至某次同事索性帮我点云吞面，才领略到KL的云吞面有些是以好吃的叉烧闻名。
對吉隆波叉燒是最好吃
吉隆坡人最讲究就是吃了。😋
Yeah, at the same time, I have been planning to go to Penang during the CNY week despite my preference of Ipoh personally

Penang's Chinese food is overrated. There's a lot of great food in Ipoh as well as KL. Btw I'm a Chinese from Penang :-)
@@edamame5540 makes no difference that you are from Penang.
List me what is good from Ipoh besides the Bean sprout and White coffee.
KL? Come on, get real.
16:10 daily wake up 2am ready the food (congee) for customer, really salute the stall owner. This can not happen if Lack of a bit of passion.
Thats right the older generation works harder
愉園茶室的炒粿條鮮蛤和街外的chendol係必修科，來到檳島一定好食。！！！！！😉😉😉

sorry to say the sisters char kuih teow is lousy to me.
These are his favorites not the best!
No more original chefs mostly Myanmar, and Bangla workers manning the stalls. All gone gone gone forever, all BS about Penang foodies.
