DINNER

They are sometimes connected to casual Chinese coffee shops, but most times these open air centres are roadside affairs hosting a varied collection of hawker sellers and plenty of open air seating. Serving up inexpensively priced cuisine that is richly flavoured, they operate at all hours of the day and the reason the food is so good is because these hawkers use age-old family recipes and old fashioned cooking methods. The lifeline to locals and even travellers by helping to keep food budgets low, food presentation is not a priority but quality and freshness is always top notch. Close on every Wednesday.

Using different rice such as nasi lamuni, tomato rice, nasi hujan panas, nasi kacang, nasi minyak, nasi lemak and white rice. Every rice uses natural dye from different ingredients. The name and presentation is just so interesting. Their curry is the highlight of the dish, choose either curry chicken or beef rendang. They’re robust with flavours and are thick and creamy. This is a must hawker lunch spots in Penang if you want to try out something new.
