What's your fave foodcourt food?
I think it has to be Char Kway Teow, closely followed by Mee Goreng - but so many new dishes to try out. Not tried Yong Tau Foo or Yam Rice yet, but no doubt I'll get to that.

Aiyah! there is no end to culinary delights in Malaysia. In Malacca try special lok lok (meat and/or veg on skewers) cooked in boiling satay sauce instead of usual boiling water. Yong tau Fu needs to be home made type using nice big chillies etc and Taiping Popiah, Ipoh fruit over shaved ice with a dollop on top, Kampung Koh Pan Mee with lots of Kampung Koh chilli sos...never ending...but hard to beat roti tisu at midnight with teh terak at favourite Mamah stall

New favourite - Mee Mydin. No idea what was in it. I asked the cook, pointing at each ingredient, What's that? vegetable. What's that? vegetable. What's that? vegetable. So I think it might be vegetarian. I guess the guy had a secret recipe and didn't want to give away too much
And Assam Laksa.....mmmmm

I get to try "chee chup chok" in Petaling Street, KL. This little makan store has operate since 1958......ahhhhh! could be wrong, don't quote me on the date!
For those of you who are newbies to the local food, it is rice porridge with fish, chicken, pork mince but my all time favourite is pig intestines!!
Ok, ok, someone of you may think this is so uncivilised but wait till you taste it.

I ordered pigs feet once in Switzerland and it was just DISGUSTING... could not eat it... but I'm digressing a bit here.
I tried porridge in Singapore a couple of times... I think it was Taiwanese porridge?? but cannot say that I liked it.
I've really got to try Mee Rebus. Where can I get it in Tg Bungah/Tokong/Ferringhi area?

Excellent ex-reg That's the food centre right at the end of Gurney? Close to MacDonalds? (Can never understand why anyone would want to eat in a MacDonalds when in Penang but, there you go, we are all different.)
Been thinking about trying that foodcourt. Presume that beer available there?

Most Indian foodstalls would serve mee rebus. The thing that gets me is that most Indian foodstalls tend to use dehydrated noodles instead of the fresh mee.
I was told that the place to try excellent mee rebus is this spot called “Kompleks Makanan Persiaran Gurney” and the stall is “Penang Famous Edgecumbe Road Mee Rebus and Mee Goreng”. so, how about you give this place a go, bakedbean and let me know if it is as good as my source had boasted!

Cheers redbean - I'll see if the chauffeur can find the place. I think that one is a little along Gurney, isn't it? I think I have seen it.

I drove past there today and spotted the Kompleks I'll see if the chauffeur will want to drive that far for dinner.
