The street food in Malaysia is unparalleled, and one of the best cities to experience the amazing flavours, tastes, and smells of the country is in Penang. We started our street food tour in Penang, Malaysia, at a shop that’s been around for over 120 years making handmade biscuits, the most popular of which is their coconut tart. We were blown away by the time and effort that goes into making this delicious and popular Penang food.
We continued our street food tour in Penang, Malaysia, trying out the best street food in Penang, like oh-jian, the famous Penang asam laksa, and the popular and famous cendol. These street foods in Penang are so strong in flavour, we couldn’t believe how tasty everything was!
To finish off our street food tour in Penang, Malaysia, we tried one of the most popular foods in Penang, char kuey teow. Char kuey teow is one of the best street foods in Penang, potentially one of the best street foods in Malaysia! With rich flavours and each portion cooked fresh to order, this delicious Malaysian street food is not to be missed on your next trip to Penang.
We hope you enjoy our street food tour in Penang, Malaysia, trying the famous Penang asam laksa and char kuey teow, along with some more of the best street food in Penang. There will be more Malaysian street food tours here in Penang, so stay tuned!

Hey everyone!
Hope you're having a great day!
What's your favourite noodle dish?
Thanks for watching! ☺️🧡
My all time favourite is the very famous ipoh's taugey chicken koay tiau.
@@malarselvi455 mmmmm good choice!
CHEUNG FUN. Esp the hole in the wall in HONG KONG . With the peanut butter sauce.
Oooo that sounds delish!
Assam laksa. Then char kuay tiow. Then Chee Chiong Fun. Mmmm. Fried Hor Fun. Try this, Hungry Two Travel..called Sar (or Char) Hor fun!
I'll be leaving US for PG in a few weeks... it'll be a foodie heaven on the cheap. Definitely try the mamak mee goreng, pasembur, nasi kandar and murtabak. And the varieties of nyonya kuih. Also the Chinese wanton mee, kuay chap and Penang version of chee cheong fun. Bon appetit. Oh, don't forget a nice cold sugarcane juice.
Such a foodie heaven, you've named some delicious dishes, and there are just so many to choose from, the sky's the limit!! Enjoy your trip, we hope you have fun and eat loads of amazing foods 😊🤤
*I'm listening to the continuation of your success, my friend. Greetings from Turkey.* 😋🤗
Thanks so much for watching, Emre 😊 so good to hear from you!!
Amazing video guys!!! Absolutely loved the coconut tart, laksa and especially the kwetiau cooked over charcoal was to die for. Penang has a lot of delicious street food and we can’t wait for your next video. Thanks a lot for sharing your food adventures with us ❤️
Thanks so much for watching! That coconut tart, oh my gosh we ate them almost everyday 😆 The food in Penang truly is something special.
@@HungryTwoTravel i live in Penang. Lived here my whole life.
Wow, thanks for your wonderful sharing in Penang. Good food and good place to live in.
Thanks for watching :) Penang is such a great city, beautiful and amazing food !
The noodles in assam laksa is called lai fun. The sourness mainly comes from the tamarind and even sour/unripe pineapples. Lemongrass is more give it a citrus fragrance/flavour not much of sourness. Lemongrass is a common ingredient in most of the curries and chili paste. That brown sugar is called gula melaka. It's actually different from palm sugar if you are to ask for it and buy it from shops. I miss Penang food! The popular stalls were soooo crowded last time. DId you try the chee cheong fun? In Penang,theirs are served with prawn paste. Also Penang rojak. Love Penang Char Kway Tiao, it is the best version.
We love it too!! So good. There's so much amazing food in Penang, you're right. We have a few more videos here, so stay tuned ;)
Thanks again for watching and your awesome comments!!
Have a nice day.. Wellcome to Malaysia.. support your channel... enjoy your food .

Thanks so much for watching, Lucy 😊 the food was so good!! We had such a tasty day :)
You’re a brave lady to try all these unknown food. Enjoy
You've got to try everything AT LEAST once 😉
I used to travel to Penang last two years, so many beautiful places but I didn't try local foods 'cause I was going to KL. I am going to travel Penang next year :)
with love ❤️❤️❤️🇹🇭
That's amazing, we hope when you travel next year you can try some of the delicious local foods of Penang. There's really so much to choose from so you'll never get bored! Thanks for watching, Deep Blue Sea.
Glad they've made it in Penang. 1st time I see Coconut Tart topped with Walnut Biscuit is a must try. Oyster pancake/omelette also one of Taiwanese famous street foods. Assam Laksa Steph had didn't had coconut milk in the broth. They finally got to my favorites Cendol that green jelly actually called pandan noodles and is refreshing dessert, and Char Kuey Teow of course and they also added green chive in there as well.
Thanks for the comment Hing-Cheong! Yes we made it to Penang :) The coconut tart is a must try, it was incredibly flaky and moist, so delicious. We loved the cendol as well as the char kuey teow, just scrumptious. Thanks for watching!
Mungbean sprouts n chinese chives are a must in char kuey tiow. I spell it 'tiow' instead of 'teow' as written locally for foreigners to pronounce it easily. Like i write for Americans 'wonton' instead of local 'wantan' to facilitate their pronouncing!
Welcome to Penang
Thank you, Baker Ang !
来了马来西亚后，粉丝和观看者大涨啊😊😊恭喜恭喜🎉
Thank you!
It looks so good and they work so hard 💕👍🏻😍
Yes and yes! Everything you say is true😄
Lucky that the uncle making the pastry speaks Cantonese as most Prnangites Chinese speak Hokkien(Southern Min) dialect or Mandarin
You're very right! Usually it is Hokkien, it was wonderful that he also spoke Cantonese, it was great to be able to communicate😊 and learn about their tarts and history
Many Chinese in Georgetown area speaks Cantonese..
It's because the majority of the people are Hokkien and the other races just pick it up to communicate. There are even some Malays and Indians who speak Hokkien too.
I feel Penang and Melaka Have the best Chendol cause they use good fresh coconut milk and nice gula Melaka
So true, the cendol was so tasty, perfect way to cool off on a hot day
Yes, Melaka like Penang have nice 'Nonya' food!
Three words… Malaysia, Truly Asia…
Yes!!!!
I haven’t been back to Malaysia in 20 years. I stayed there for a month and boy I gained a lot of weight from all the eating. No Petronas tower yet. 😊
It's hard not to resist isn't it!? The food is just so good, and after 20 years, you definitely deserved some treats😉 thanks so much for watching and commenting!
Chris, you are in food heaven town. enjoy. They speak hokkien and English more here, they don't speak Cantonese much. And you found a Cantonese chefs 👏👏👏👏👏💪👍☮️🌈 your partner got the best Char Kueh teow.
You're right, this is definitely food heaven town 😄 it was great to communicate with Sifu. We ate some amazing food and can't wait to share more of the tasty food of Penang :)

Heading there in December for a month .. can’t wait … any recommendations for where to stay
Amazing! You'll have a great time :) we found that hotels were actually easier and cheaper to come by than Airbnbs, so just look around for any deals 😉 the area around Lorong Selamat is good!
@@HungryTwoTravel thanks for the advice Hungry Two
Something out of this topic... what gshock watch model is host wearing 🤩
G-Shock G-lide 😉
The cendol is really popular with tourists. But it is just average cendol. =)
We really enjoyed it :)

@@HungryTwoTravel So interesting coconut tart n oyster pancakes!😋
@@tingwt487 yes! Some very interesting flavours for sure!
@@HungryTwoTravel Thanks for your sharing 👍😁
@@tingwt487 thank you for watching😊
It is cucumber not zucchini in the Laksa..there is torch ginger, a kind of pink flower bud in the ginger family. There is usually fresh pineapple too. The noodles are different from regular rice noodles. It is glutinous rice noodles. No gluten as in wheat gluten..dunno why they call it that. But a different type of sticky rice.
Yes, the noodles are so nice and chewy!! Loved them :)
Try HK famous egg tarts. Heavenly
We just had them in our last video actually, in Ipoh, they were so tasty 🤤
🤤
😋😋😋
Hello 👋 good night 😚💗
Hi there 😊
☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️😘😘😘😍😍😍
😊😊😊
Char kway tiaw is popular in singapore and malaysia. The thais have padthai which has peanuts. Rm 12 is on the pricey side.
Very popular! We really enjoyed it, so delicious
@@HungryTwoTravel Toronto have to pay 14 dollars plus Hst+15 percent tips
Yes very true, quite a difference in price
RM12 Char kueh teow at New Lane is expensive, u can get the same dish below RM10 at other hawker stall, hawker foods at my New Lane is mostly cater for tourists...
We really enjoyed it! We found the food there really good for the price
I still prefer that infamous one at Lorong Selamat.
Hilarious. same dish here in SF Bay Area would be $15USD.
Do visit sarawak too
We would love to!
@@HungryTwoTravel Great,if do come let me know,I'll fetch You guys
That's so kind of you!!
I didn't know that a small plate of Char Kuey Teow cost RM12 now.
Yes, that was with the duck egg as well ;)
From experience, the really good food places don’t have the word “famous” in them. 😂
That's fair, and usually true!! We did some research and found that that place was really good for their laksa, so we had to give it a try ;)
$4.70 for 10-15 oysters. That’s a deal!
Not bad eh!!??
Is everything open after COVID
Many places are open now, yes :)
Hello.po
Hi there 👋
The way you love Asian food makes me wonder…..do you need another Malaysian boy friend? Ha ha
🤣😆
@@HungryTwoTravel Are those emojis a Yes or No?
@@HungryTwoTravel Point to mull over….Chinese dudes have got more heart and soul. Especially those who love Cheung Fun.
Laksa also has ginger flower besides pineapples.
'Ginger flower' ( bunga kantan) according to a recipe book is called TORCH GINGER. Is it from the regular ginger root plant or a different botanical genus?
@@soulman3790 it is commonly found in wet markets. So it is the common ginger flower i think
@@keangwooichoo6138 of course! I am Malaysian. I buy it too.
@@keangwooichoo6138 Called Ang Hwa (red flower) in Penang Hokkien.
@@keangwooichoo6138 Commonly found in Msia doesnt mean it is the same common ginger plant. I was spending much time in a buddy's home. I prayed to Jesus that torch ginger would appear in his backyard. Guess what? Jesus made the birds bring that plant's seeds on its feathers n it grew there. An Aussie girl visitor brought in the opened bud as a flower. She never knew it was a food!

The cendol stall on the left when you enter from Penang Road is the original one. The one on the right is the johnny-come-lately copycat.
From what we've read and heard from locals, the one that we went to was the original stall ;)
The one on the right is the original one.
@@emeraldgem0357 Both have been around for many years, but yes, the one on the right was the first one.
Come penang how many Day
Two weeks :)
@@HungryTwoTravel got go butterworth bukit metajam bukit Tambun Area?
Dude what’s with those protruding green veins?
Cendol!
@@HungryTwoTravel Good one dude. 😄
Hi
Hello! Thanks for watching :)
@@HungryTwoTravel oigan cutyi
I hv tried the char kuey teow outside of Sunway Hotel not enough wok hei. Not worth for linning up.
We really enjoyed it :)
Locals patronize the other stall. Much lesser queue & much better taste n quality.
From what we read and heard from those around, the one that we went to was the original, so we wanted to try that one out to see what it tasted like ;) Thanks for watching!
@@HungryTwoTravel It no longer " original" . Enjoy both n u will get to confirm. There is a saying, try what locals patronize because they know best. Hype & publicity is not equal to taste & quality. Nonetheless, taste is personal so long one enjoys it. Hope you enjoyed Penang! All the best to you in yr coming endeavours.
Good food needs hard work
Yes we completely agree
好好吃;not几好吃。😁
Ya have to agree. kei Hou Sik means so so 🤣 while hou hou sik is very good
@@raymondng18 好好吃is 100%good!
It was ho sik, delicious 😉
Tell me where I can get me an Caucasian lady that loves Jesus. Please help me. I will cook for you dude.
🤣🤣🤣
Georgetown : food capital of Malaysia?
As Malaysian myself, i disagree
One of the major food destinations ;) What would you choose?
Mostly agreed on by all/most Msians Penang island IS the street food capital of Malaysia. Penang is also known as the Street Food Capital of the World. I too am Malaysian, a Penangite.
@@soulman3790 penangite surely said that.
Pubs it wont,just like Johoreans Bangsa bangsa like lah 😂
