If you don’t want to be ‘tortured’ by the stuck-up lady of the Lorong Selamat Char Kuey Teow, you need to find alternatives. I’ve boycotted the lady and stopped going to Lorong Selamat, therefore an alternative should be found to replace it. You can’t miss the Char Kuey Teow when you are in Penang, can you?
I have found a place for a decent Char Kuey Teow at Tiong Nam. Normally we just say going ‘Tion Nam’ for our breakfast, lunch, dinner or supper there but would not bother to mention the name of coffee shop. In fact I didn’t know the name of the coffee shop until I took this photo for blogging. It is ‘Keat Seng’ mate! It’s just located at the junction of Reservoir Garden where the morning market is. If you are heading to Penang Hill from town, it is just right after the Shell petrol station.

It has a nice aroma when a piece of banana leaf is used for lining the plate when the Kuey Teow is piping hot. 2 pieces of prawn (the size slightly bigger than RM0.50), some cockles, few pieces of ‘lap cheong’ (Chinese sausage) & egg cost RM3.00 a plate which is cheap to KL’s standard. The portion is just right where it leaves some space in your stomach for a bowl of curry mee.
The curry mee is nothing to shout about. But it’s just RM2.50!
