Street Hawker | George Town, Penang Malaysia

Chickpea and Fava patties; Samosas

 

Roasted Chestnut (aka buah berangan cina)

 

I wish there were names for these street vendors, but they are as street as they come. One even had just a push cart and a few things of cardboard for a roof (which honestly, did the job). But we came out of Kedai Kopi Ho Ping and not even 10 minutes went by, we were already walking towards the above dishes.

As we arrived at Penang, we basically dropped our luggage at the hotel and then hit the ground running. First stop, we went to this place relatively near our hotel (10 minute walk). Kedai Kopi Ho Ping is a small little eatery with multiple vendors outside cooking/waiting for your order.Favorite dish of the series was the Penang asam laksa; a dish packed with flavor. A base of mackerel soup, has a bit of sour from the tamarind, onion to add some sweetness, chili to add some spicy, and finish that off with fish flakes and the sweet prawn paste to really bold the flavors. This bowl of asam laksa has it all.

Parking
We ended up walking here from our hotel, but as you can see from the outside shot, parking looks a bit limited. You may need to drive around a bit to find parking along the street.
