The only thing authentically Penang from your experience here is the sago gula melaka. I'm not saying the recipe, but the way they serve. Penangite hawkers love to give you no options, "you either have it my way, or the highway", because they think they know best.RealGunnershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10825458587938489052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7834220008218845143.post-74009418110180383622015-09-15T10:32:35.358+08:002015-09-15T10:32:35.358+08:00Yes, it's getting increasingly difficult to fi...Yes, it's getting increasingly difficult to find plump and juicy cockles! :'(contact.ewewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01142689964601201058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7834220008218845143.post-27610424944151765312015-09-15T10:13:06.024+08:002015-09-15T10:13:06.024+08:00i spot the cockles but i'd also be wishing tha...i spot the cockles but i'd also be wishing that they'd be plump and squirting ... but i guess the norm at most chain outlets is that they'd be tiny and rubbery, alas!Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11233963104976190769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7834220008218845143.post-76759482223894182652015-09-15T09:30:29.178+08:002015-09-15T09:30:29.178+08:00The ginger flower, I think, is an acquired taste a...The ginger flower, I think, is an acquired taste and I'm surprised that you like it.

I read that it was opened by one of the Moey brothers (and his wife) from the famous lane in Penang.

When it turned into those new style kopitiam look with more outlets, I have only been there once and find that the food is really different, not that Penang authentic anymore (used to be authentic Penang taste) and the price also much more expensive so I never visit this shop ever again.munhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11449093706822850017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7834220008218845143.post-77012146876533150212015-09-14T17:04:13.081+08:002015-09-14T17:04:13.081+08:00The sambal fish rice sound weird to me, is it rela...The sambal fish rice sound weird to me, is it related to any Penang food? =.="Choi Yenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17090063807934190089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7834220008218845143.post-67266473753709086802015-09-14T12:12:20.574+08:002015-09-14T12:12:20.574+08:00The Sago Gula Melaka was a disaster hah..hah...
