I am sure everyone knows about the Hot Wok Restaurant but I am writing about the Hokkien Mee which they serve daily from 11am - 3am from a hawker style stand within the outside of the restaurant.

Just moved to Burmah in mid 2008. Previous serving at Gurney Plaza and then moved to Tanjung Bungah area (Opp. Subaidah). Serves typical peranakan food like Joo Hu Char, Perut Ikan, Sour Gulai Fish, Tu Thor Th'ng and Kapitan Chicken. Famous customers were Andy Tenant and Jodie Foster when they were in Penang filming "Anna and The King"

The Hokkien mee is OK. Not the best but just OK. but it served the purpose of filling your stomach which decent mee past midnight nearby especially after clubbing. Be careful of the add ons which will add to your final bill. There is a steady stream of customer, so I guess the palate suit most people but I heard some not so good feedback from friends from too salty to blant

Add ons are like roasted pork and yam kuih.
