New Lane... I go for either the beef soup noodle/
kway teow or
chee cheong chuk when I am there.
Some of my friends are absolutely
siao about this
chee cheong chuk. It is popular, so if you go too late, you'd be disappointed. The last I had this was more than a year ago when I brought my volleyball mates here during our
MSKPPM 2008. This time I even
ta-pau-ed 2 packets back for a friend and her other half. She simply loves this
chee cheong chuk... and I think it made a happy dinner! LOL! We were at
Canton-i earlier in the day and I also ordered their equivalent of
chee cheong chuk (which was dismal compared to this New Lane version). Let me now go into the economics...
Verdict - the one in New Lane wins hands down and it only costs RM4.00 per bowl! One bowl at Canton-i cost almost RM12! If you want to have a real treat - you can keh-liao and you can eat yourself ecstatic! I think RM12 will overflow your bowl with all the goodies and you'll probably stuff yourself jelak! LOL!
Other Half and Son had char-kway-teow. Son said it's better than his favourite stall in Alor Setar. Penang Char-Kway-Teow, the name itself also will psyche you into thinking that you are already in for a yummy treat. Gal as usual went for her wantan mee.. at the rate she is going, she's going to be a wantan mee expert. LOL!
This is popiah. Penang popiah is wetter than the popiah my mom makes. They actually pour the sauce on the popiah. I prefer mine dry so that I can hold the whole popiah and chomp it down. But this was also quite nice! 8) ...though not a finger food!
New Lane... one of the nicer places to
jalan-jalan cari makan at the
gerai.
