Jiao Sai (Chicken Shit)

Although it’s called chicken shit, it is definitely not shit, and not smelly. It is a famous maggie goreng stall and the fried noodles is so heavenly you can die with no regrets. So if you ever go to Penang, you better do whatever you can to get a plate of this treasure before you leave.

Supper Nasi Tomato

This stall only opens at night, and if you want to go, you better bring some food along. Bring food along to eat supper? Yes, because no matter how early you go, you still have to queue around 30 minutes for your turn. Yes, it’s that popular.

LaMei Hotpot

This is a chain restaurant and you can be sure that you’ll go away so satisfied you don’t mind paying them double. This hotpot shop operates late into the night, has many different choices for soup base and an even wider range of choices for food. There is also alcohol so you can be sure to have a great time with your buddies throughout the night.

Ilyana mee udang

This is it. This is the legendary Hae Mee or Prawn Noodles in the whole of Penang. We believe that you have heard of it. If not, you have to visit at least once.

Lian He Ben Ji Claypot Rice

A much loved supper destination of locals, this shop only operates at night as well, and it serves the most perfectly-made claypot rice and bak kut teh you can ever find. The food here is what happiness tastes like.

Dhoby Ghaut Kuay Teow Th’ng

In this place, there also exists a stall called Dhoby Ghaut which sells curry noodles rich in coconut milk. It’s so good everyone who went to Penang will definitely have to try this one.

Xin Ji De Shi Hong Kong Dimsum

This stall sells finger food up to 4am in the morning, and it the best place to go to have a long chit chat over delicious food. Probably one of the pathetically few dim sum stall that opens late into the night, this place with its affordable prices is really a rare treasure!
