Adventure #69: New Lane (Penang)

Our last evening in Penang, we got to sample all that we had not yet had!  New Lane is a side street with 40-odd stalls on both sides serving all of Penang's most popular gastronomic offering. And since there are only 2 of us (the kids may or may not necessary share our taste in food), we had to be careful what we ordered so as to maximise our selection.....

You can order from any stall, just tell them where you sit and the food will be delivered to you.

G started with pig-inards porridge



which he thought was really delicious



I chose prawn noodle 蝦麵 which is also known as Hokkien noodle 福建麵 in Penang



Small but full of flavour

Next we went for fried oyster 蠔煎



Yummy....

The older one missed Ipoh ho fun a lot and asked us to order her a dry ho fun.  This plate of ho fun actually tasted (according to the older one) much better than it looked

Satay and ....



fried chicken for the little one



We would have liked to have ordered more but already full, so compromised with a light dessert - apong

This is actually a much, much better place to sample Penang's food than Gurney Drive which is more for the tourists.  The quality of the food here is much better. We will be back next time to try the rest of the food on offer.
