GoodAll's Million Mee

If you're a Penangite, you've probably heard of wantan mee, Hokkien mee, pan mee and all sorts of noodle-based dishes. But now we bring you a unique dish, called the Million Mee.

It's basically a plate of yellow noodles in a light broth with bits of sliced meat. But it tasted heavenly. I cannot possible describe the taste for you, so you'll just have to go try it yourself.

It tasted so good that we forgot to ask the vendor why is it so-called. Heck, it was so good that I ordered another one even after I just finished a large plate of western food (the first was Aisling's).



The stall.


Sorry about the photo quality. Photos are taken with a phone as we cannot afford a good camera. Yet.


GoodAll hawker place is located opposite Penang Chinese Girls' High School.

Will's Western Delight

We came out from a movie at Gurney Plaza and decided on western food. The first place we thought of was the shop next to Fatty Loh chicken rice in Tanjung Bunga. But since we couldn't find any parking space there, we decided to visit another popular place serving western food.

It's Will's Western Delights in Island Glades, near Hamid Khan High School. It's not hard to spot the place as it's close to all the many cafes there. And also, the vendors set up their business in their house, so it'll be easy to look for a house with chairs and tables on the lawn.


Grilled fish with black pepper sauce and a side of bacon. Good sauce. - RM8



Lamb-chop with garlic sauce. A VERY huge portion of lamb there ... - RM12



What the place looked like when we left ...



Some extra help from Aisling at finding the place.

Oyster Porridge

It was a nice Sunday morning as Aisling and I headed out to get some brunch (we can never wake early enough for breakfast) and came to this little shop on Perak Road which sells nothing but oyster porridge.

So we took our places in a corner of the shop and when our own steaming bowl of porridge came, the wonderful smell simply took us in. It looked more like rice in a bowl of soup, but who cares, it's delicious!




They only serve one dish here, but look at the crowd and you'll know how good it is.

A map, again. Thank Aisling for these.

Fatty Loh Chicken Rice

Today we visited Fatty Loh Chicken Rice at Tanjung Bunga, a very famous chicken rice vendor which has opened multiple branches in Penang.

The chicken rice was good. Better than most I've tried, and I've tried a lot. But the problem was the fact that the place was filthy. We spotted some tables with spilled chilli sauce and some which are greasy and disgusting.

We recommend you try the food, but get it to go.




Chicken rice - RM3.50
Soup of the day (which happens to be pork-belly soup today) - RM4





The store-front.





The huge chicken standing outside the store-front is pretty hard to miss.





As usual, a map to help you find your way.
