Penang Food Festival

A foodie friend of mine (from Penang, of cos!) decided that she loves her Penang food so much that she had to replicate the experience for the rest of us in sunny Singapore. And replicate she did, hitting the best hawkers in Penang – Hokkien prawn mee soup, char kway teow (fried rice noodles), curry noodles - packing and bundling it all up, and hoping on the next available flight back.

And you bet we were impressed with the spread. The delicious stock that dressed the prawn noodles with extra bean sprouts thrown in, the ever so flavourful char kway teow (done Penang style minus the dark sauce), and the ever so light curry noodles with a generous helping of mint leaves, floored us completely. We wanted to get on the next flight to Penang!

Hey, you missed another Penang food festival yesterday – this time, chee cheong fun the way only Penangites know how to make, with shrimp paste, sweet sauce and chilli, as well as “toktok mee” which is Penang's version of wanton mee – damn shiok.
