Or Jian (Oyster Omelet)

Steamed Crab

 *Pretty good. Little meat to the particular species of crab but fresh*

Black Pepper Crab

It used to be a novelty in its original location, located over the waters to have some decent seafood. But since its shift inland, and increase in prices, its decent seafood, at relatively steep prices by Malaysian standards.

Pulau Tikus
(Swee Kong Cafe - Solok Moulmein Road)

Another favorite breakfast joint in Penang. To orders here from the various stalls located in and around the vicinity, all of which are push cart stalls. From Swee Kong, the main ones are the traditional clay pot Ah Pong desserts and Hokkien Mee.

Hokkien Mee

(Done in a sweet prawn broth, often with mixed yellow and white noodles)

Ah Pom 

 

(Done traditional style in clay pots)
(Indian style crepe dessert)
Everyone goes for the edges cause they are the crispy parts.
The center is nice, fluffy and hot.
Cham Peng
*A local favourite. Coffe and tea mix. Somehow,
Penang just gets the ratio of coffee, tea and sugar right.*
Ban Chan GuiKueh

*Try not to bag it. Have it on the spot. Once bagged, the steam and condensation softens the pastry instantly. A pretty good one to try, but the better one in my book is still located at Fatty's Park. Click here for more info)

Pulau Tikus Market
(Home Made Nonya Guis)

Take an exploratory walk to the adjoining Pulau Tikus Market. There's home made Kueh's which are really good.

Penang Laksa

*Authentic stuff and you must have it with additional Heh-kor (sweetish prawn paste)
Interestingly, locals have spring rolls for dipping into the Assam broth. Have a try yourself.
