Penang arguably the food Mecca of Southeast Asia with so many tourists flocking to this
Northern Malaysian City to tackle tasty treats from traditional vendors and restaurants that
have been mastering recipes and secret ingredients through generations today we are going to take you
to the most famous vendors to try the most sought after dishes in Malaysia's food capital on an epic
Penang food tour like legit this is so good it'll leave your mouth watering taste buds tingling and
your fingertips looking sliced here as soon as possible okay so welcome back all welcome if
you are new here we are at our first stop today on the food tour around Penang we are on July
McAllister and this is Sister yells and we are here for the ciao koi Tak let's go check it out
these sisters are serving succulent charcoal cat a Malaysian breakfast dish that these
lovely ladies have been cooking up for decades after inheriting the family business
girlfriend okay so I am excited about this it is breakfast time I'm a breakfast themed I love
breakfast breakfast is one of my favorite meals of the day and we have a few of them this morning I'm
so excited this one however is really interesting not only the backstory but also what this dish is
this doesn't look like a cake at all you've got bean sprouts in there a dark soy sauce you've
got preserved egg and then you have this fried rice cake in these big chunks doesn't look like a
traditional breakfast especially Western but it is let's try it it's got that kind of consistency of
scrambled egg but it's kind of overpowered by the bean sprout crunchiness they're like crisp nature
when you bite into a brand green bean sprout it's kind of cool let's try this big rice cake it's
soft and malleable but also kind of chewy it's really hard to describe it is a very strong taste
I think of sauce that's really good breakfast not so much a western one but I could have this here
for breakfast I think closer than chicken and rice for me so that was five ringer and just to keep in
mind I have found in Penang that you get the food from the food stalls and then you sit in a cafe
and you buy the drinks from the cafe in order to sit there the drink itself was to bring it so all
together it was seven to ringgit for that meal let's head to the next place we have obviously
started off really well because this is the longest line I've ever seen for food in my entire
life so that must mean it's worth it there's a little rule or saying we live by when we travel
and it's if there's locals there are a lot of locals I reckon it's a good place to go let's try
okay we are here at Rooney Baka on Hutton Lane and honestly there was a 45 minute wait it's
currently quarter past quarter past can you see I don't know if you can see it's quarter past 11
and we got here at around about 10 30 so that was a long wait this looks worth it there's a
ton of people here but I've got the tea Tariq which I've spilled all over myself and all over
the table and we also have my Milo ice if you know me you know I can't go without my Milo
ice so leave a comment in below hashtag team Milo before I try this roasted Picard this apparently
really famous regular car the grub drives today all around the city of Penang are gonna cost me
an absolute water Fortune so make sure you like this video before we go on I'll wait
okay moving on you know what it's bread it's butter sweet eggs and it's so good this is
amazing I love it conquer wrong with eggs and condensed milk or sugar I made probably some
I saw him put some condensed milk on some of them it's a tad bit sweet but definitely the butter on
this host is really sweet I really like it that's the best one I've had yeah yeah I think that's the
best one all right they want to Mansion actually yeah you're at Mansion tesol one was slightly uh
more like foamy I feel like he pulled it like a fresher or something um but the taste of this one
is really nice so I'm gonna link Manchester that we went down in the description bar below make
sure you go check that out and remember we're linking all the places we go today down there
as well so check that one out after you're done watching this video okay so the one piece of that
bread plus the Milo ice and the tea Tariq was 850 Ringgit but now it's time to move on to the next
one which is exciting let's go we're done with the breakfast now let's get into some real food
there's lots of vendors around the outside everyone's busy everyone's dipping some fruit
into oil to make some deep fried stuff but I asked for the what is it again well back more
back I asked for the law back that's right skip my mind for a second and it's five spice like pork
roll I think that's what it's meant to be I just ordered low back but a whole plate of like date
fried prawns and tofu as well um oh yeah prawns of shrimp but we call them prawns in Australia so
let's eat this low back okay it's like a sausage on the inside it's pretty much a sausage encased
with like like deep fried it tastes like something deep fried and then I put it in the sauce
all right see where to go for record I'm a big fan of sausage so
oh yeah yum really good you're right it's like it tastes like a mixture between like
a deep fried piece of pork like like you want to get like a pork dish and in your
um normal deep fried pork that you would get in any noodle meal or something like that but it's
got like a sausage casing that feels deep fried it's still kind of like a sausage tasting in
the way that it's like thin and like paper thin but it's like it's like they're deep fried and
sausage essentially is what it tastes like the sauce which is really nice it's like sweet and
and spicy at the same time that complements it really well okay so if we're doing things that
we have to eat in Penang you have to have chalk white towel let's go just kidding we've already
had it so go go check my first video here from um Penang I put it in the description bar below
we had it there on our first day here by Aston I didn't actually know how big it was here in Penang
but if we're doing a video all about things that you have to eat here that's definitely
top of the list so make sure you go check out that video but let's get into the next thing
okay we are full of food from doing this food to offer you all day our last piece of food
that we're gonna have before our snacks and our desserts was popia however we went to the most
recommended the most popular place to get propia from parang Brown and it was closed so we found
that this place was the place to go for popia but it is closed then we went to the second place in
Gurnee there was a massive Hawker Center there you should go anyway however this one's also closed so
we honestly don't know where we are we found this random place and we saw ourselves phobia hopefully
it's the good one hopefully it's good it might not be the best but the food itself was one of
the best things to try whether this is the right place or not so let's go check it out yeah how
much for one uh one set two businesses 550 one set two pieces five okay I'll grab that one okay
foreign
smells fresh
Berry cabbagey like it's got a lot of cabbage stuffed on the inside there it's wrapped but
very thinly and that's all I can really taste that's in this one this is the part where I
confess this isn't actually my first puppy well it kind of is Michael had one not too long ago
and I had one little bite of it and I'm gonna be completely honest with you that was in a a
mall and I liked it a lot better than this one that's I feel really bad that one was better to
me I think it had meat in it I think that maybe what it was I really like the meat this one isn't
bad I think there's just a lot to be desired with this there's not much flavor to this one at all
um still still good not my favorite have to be honest but I do wonder what it would have
been like if we got the best place for it so maybe we'll have to come back to Japan
neck okay so before we jump into the dessert you are all probably waiting for first we have
this one it is most famous in Penang and this is the guy to get it from let's go
okay first of all this smells delicious absolutely delicious this smells right
up my alley I love egg I love pancakes this is sort of reminiscent of a really
thin crepe that's kind of what I'm getting from this I think I'm gonna like this one
literally like a pancake with egg how can you go wrong like legit this is so good
this is so good very simple I feel like there's not that many ingredients there's some pancake
batter Chuck an egg in I like it simple effective delicious I can see of the two that we've had this
morning this would be my pick for a breakfast dish um I like eggs um and I like pancakes I
really like this the egg has sort of cooked into the pancake so there's no runny bits or
anything it's all sort of just like part of the like pancake crepe now and you get like
that fluffy bit of egg white when you eat into it as well delicious so remember we are sourcing all
of these places for you these are the places to go and that was the best one I haven't had any
others but that was really good it was five bring it for five pieces of the normal one now let's go
to the long awaited long-awaited most requested most interesting dessert let's go check it out
the place to come for chendel in Penang these are two stalls opposite each other complete
utter arrivals I have heard and they're literally across the road one's there yeah so we um can't
really decide which one to go for because they look exactly the same so we're gonna scissors
paper rock to see which one we should go for I'm gonna be which one and I'm gonna be playing very
famous and Michael's going to be Penang very famous so you can see there's maybe a little
bit of inspiration coming from each other there alrighty I'll wait scissors painful Rock oh yeah
that was so cool he was like slinging the beans around and all of the I'm actually not sure it's
like it's so soy milk or something I don't know I didn't look it up beforehand so tell me in
the comments below what this like milky thing is I've thrown away a lot more simple than them it's
like we had one in Malacca the chendol um this one is straight up more simple way more runny
um the one in Malacca was like really nice shaved ice or solo to have ice cream on the top it had
all the like mango fillings and stuff this one has like looks like four ingredients like milk
ice green noodles and beets oh that's the chendol yeah although well okay all right
wow okay there's a lot going on is this is it soy milk it has like the soup stuff has like a
like a weird taste but sweet there's obviously some kind of like sugar in there brown sugar okay
I'm gonna go out there and say it and everyone's gonna hate me I can tell I like the one from
Malacca more I know I know this is the original I know it's soupy see if Josie's right about it
being better in Malacca this is more sweet as in the syrup itself but when you said it I thought
you were just being controversial but I like the one in Malacca more as well I think I think that's
like fruit with my desserts okay so that one was about four something Ringgit I can't really
remember a 410 or 450 or something so I have a quick little disclaimer okay just because I like
don't like something doesn't mean you don't have to like something so I've noticed on my channel on
my Tick Tock everything like that some people get quite angry that I don't love everything that I
taste and I'm gonna be completely honest no matter what I'm doing where I am what is going on that's
just who I am if I don't like something I'm gonna say I don't like it it doesn't mean you can't like
it it doesn't mean it's not good it just means it might not be for me and that's totally okay
I'm gonna be honest I'm not someone who can stand and say I like something when I don't so keep that
in mind you are allowed to love this I it doesn't mean disrespect on anyone's culture leave me down
