Penang Hokkien Dishes

There are only a few restaurants serving Hokkien dishes in Penang and one of the places is Sin Lean Heang, located in Goh Tiau Lor (5th Street) – near McCallum flats . This restaurant has been around for many years.
It was fully packed with customers at lunch time and we waited almost an hour for our food.

We had the recommended dishes like bak kee th’ng, stir-fried tau kua with leeks,  big size prawns, fried oyster noodle (char oh mee), fried beehoon and oyster omelette (oh chien).

The first dish was the Bak Kee Soup – meatballs that are deep-fried coated with cornstarch and cooked in a starchy soup with cabbage.


Fried beehoon and oyster mee…. with plentiful ingredients.


Big plate of fried oh chien..


Kailan stir fried with salted fish (kiam hu)…very tasty.


Five Spice Tau Kua stir-fried with big size prawns and leeks.

The satisfying meal together with Chinese tea cost RM95.00. Will definitely come back again for more in the near future!
