Sounds good! How different is Penang Hokkien Mee from the regular hokkien mee? -

Very different!!

Penang Hokkien Mee is equivalent to our hae mee or prawn mee. If you eat a good bowl of real Penang Hokkien Mee, can really tell a difference.
Their broth is a rich stock of prawns. :drool: And then, you top it off with either chendol or teh-ping.... wah lagi best!! :drool::drool: -
Yup, penang hokkien mee is actually prawn noodle. That was really confusing when I first arrived in S’pore, haha!
A lot of prawn shells went into the stock. My friends asked how I managed to gather so much shells. Well, I only make this once or max, twice a year, so instead of throwing away the shells of the prawns I intend to cook, I will keep and freeze. I know it’s time to cook hokkien mee when I see a whole lot of prawn shells in my freezer. Haha! -

Anybody knows where I can find good Penang Char Kway Teow in Singapore? :drool:
Heard there is a very good Penang food restaurant at Lor25A (or 25) Geylang, near MRT station. You may want to try that:) -

So Penang Hokkien Mee is like our Prawn Mee Soup?

I tried Penang Kitchen and the address is 283 Tanjong Katong Road
S437066
Tel: 63488595
They have quite a good selection and the food is good.
But frankly speaking, i can't find really authentic penang food in singapore.
Somehow the food here is not as \"simple\" as the one in Penang. -
Had penang buffet last evening at Copthrone King Hotel. The penang laksa was horrible. The chef added minced sardine fish to the gravy. The result is a strong fishy smell and there were bits of sardine all over. Totally disgusting to taste and look. The gravy is murky and not sour at all. Felt like puking after trying some. :sick:
