Tea time Malaysian or rather Penang style

Who needs English tea with scones and dainty cakes when you can have all these in Penang?

Chai kueh which is vegetables wrapped in a layer of low gluten flour, tang meen fun, steamed. The green one contains chives while the whitish one contains turnips.

Seafood pohpiah which is spring rolls. However there are lots of devilish good stuffs in them like crab meat, mantis prawns, shrimps and the fresh spring roll is doused with lots of soup to make it soft and yet, not soggy.

Cendol. Possibly the best dessert in the world.

And fondue or lok lok or hot pot, Malaysian style. Plenty of icky stuffs to dip into the hot, boiling water like liver, kidney, octopus, various types of shellfish, fishballs and more.

Fancy pig’s ear and pig’s snout plus pig’s cheeks for tea? Give a quick boil of the stick of gelatinous skin into the hot water and then, dip into the various types of chillies and satay sauce for a really memorable tea time, Penang style.

All the above photos are taken from Padang Brown’s hawkers. I have blogged about this place many times.

Wah, so much food for tea time?? Then what’s for dinner?

Padang Brown sure brings back happy memories. The place has been around FOREVER!
Used to eat there during my school days, usually after afternoon school or when stay back for activities.
