Penang Food: Sungai Tiram Hokkien Mee
Written on 10:51 PM by Penang Tua Pui
The other day, we were picking up some business associates at the airport when our US guests said they would like to have some authentic Penang breakfast.
Since we were along Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah, the thought of “roti bakar” came into picture but our guests wanted something more authentic, so we dropped by at the coffee shop opposite roti bakar instead.
At this Kedai Kopi Leong Huat Seng, it was still early that not many stalls were actually open for business but we saw a particular stall that has quite brisk business at that time.
Almost every table ordered at least a bowl of Hokkien Mee. Well, you can’t go wrong with the crowd, right?
The hokkien mee is quite typical as the soup or the stock is cooked from shrimp heads and shells.
Thus the taste of the soup is quite sweet due to long hours of cooking those shrimp heads. You will get the regular ingredients like cut shrimps, shredded meat and eggs.
This one is also quite close to the original Hokkien Mee where they put kang kung as part of the ingredients. Do take note next time if the hokkien mee you eat comes with kang kung too.
As a side dish, the stall does have roasted pork as add-on for those who prefer to have them together with Hokkien Mee. Hmmm, maybe what they are missing are “eiu char koay”.
A regular bowl costs RM2.20 while a large one costs RM2.70. This hokkien mee stalls is open from 7.30am till ~11.00am, seven days a week.
