Best Hokkien (Prawn) Mee in Penang

Written by Updated ago

Not to be confused with the Hokkien Mee in Klang Valley, Hokkien Mee in Penang actually refers to prawn mee. It is a pride of the Penangites, and can be mostly found in the hawker stalls and coffee shops on the island. A good bowl of Hokkien Mee has to have a soup base that is just right - aromatic and flavourful, with a hint of sweetness as well as spiciness, and not forgetting essential ingredients like prawns, pork varieties, noodles, bean sprouts, kangkung and half-boiled egg. Check out these spots for the best Hokkien Mee in Penang!

    Kedai Kopi Ban Leong EanNon halal 01f78899591256b47a2708a65f6538333b86089a30fbd22545a41deece4ea490

    Kedai Kopi Ban Leong Ean is like your everyday coffee shop in Penang. It's old, it's somewhat considered 'heritage' and of course, most of the time it has good food. Apart from the standard orders of Kopi O or toasts, they also have a simple bowl of Hokkien Mee for those heavy eaters in the morning. The mix of noodles are nicely cooked and the broth is light but flavourful. It's neither too spicy nor bland, and has that good tinge of sweetness from the prawns. It is then topped with beansprouts, full-boiled egg, fried shallots and a spoon full of sambal for added kick.
