Walking along Beach Street and you would find this pastry cafe, popular for their hand crafted French pastries with breads and cakes.

Lovey environment to sit down and enjoy some pastries and drink in the afternoon, after walking around the area of George Town.

Their stir-frys all come very small haha, like a snack.

We didn't research this market before we came, but this dish had the longest queue, so we trusted that. For something soupy and simple, this was very good. Broth was top.

I've missed this! A level above Singapore's. But so small omg. It's like a snack that you can order multiple.

One of the best pairings of soup and rice is the salted vegetables soup with a bowl of braised yam rice. The version at Hon Kei Food Corner is done very well with the soup having a refreshing tangy flavour with the addition of minced pork and pork balls. The tomatoes also added a nice sweetness, all pairing well with the accompanying yam rice. The best kind of foods that you will want to eat when the weather turns cold.

While this coffee shop has a few food stalls, you would find many people coming here for particularly for one stall.

Everyone would patiently waiting at their own table after making their order from this char koay teow stall.

Many said it is one of the best char koay teow you can find in Penang, and the wait could be up to half an hour.

You would enjoy the wok hey taste with 2 pieces of prawn there. Close to the airport, making it a perfect stop for brunch before flying off.

Last not not least, you have to grab some apom from this stall outside the coffee shop as well.

Sai Ram is so popular that their orders constantly coming in, with people either wait around the stall for takeaway, or waiting patiently inside the coffee shop.

Their apom with a egg on the top is the most popular item.

Another stall that you should try would be this stall called the Roti Babi. One of the signature item would be this one.

Pork meat stuffed in between bread and fried it with oil. Making it crispy bites with the pork meat inside.

One of the popular coffee shop you can find in Pulau Tikus, for the various food stalls available here in the early morning.

Ah Mei Hokkien Mee is one of them and you could get a decent bowl of Hokkien Mee with the ingredients such as the prawn, egg and sliced pork.

It is getting very hard to find this rare food nowadays, which it is a type of starch that extracted from palm.

You still can find this from the Cecil Market, they would stir-fried it with bean sprouts, soy sauce and chili paste.

The texture is like soft jelly but chewable, savoury taste.

Located within the coffee shop along the quiet street in the morning, many locals would come here to grab a bowl of curry mee in the morning before going to work.

The chilli paste really made the kick as you mix it with the curry, savouring the taste of everything with all the ingredients.
