My Ratings: 5 Stars

Cuisine: Asian Hawker
Location: Solok Moulmein, Pulau Tikus (oppsite P.Tikus Poice Station)
RM2.50 - 3.50 per plate

I decided to add reviews of local Penang hawker fares. The Hokkien mee at this coffee shops is the best I ever had. The soup is really savoury and has the right balance of spiciness and chilli oil. Really frangrant. The stalls open quie early. I think it open for business around 8am and it finish selling (sold out) by around 9:30am. They serve a bowl evey 7 seconds and have 3 helpers. So this really tells you how good the dish is. .....So if you are really keen to have the best Hokien Mee (Prawn Mee), you better get up early. It is selling for around RM2.50 per bowlI give it a 5-star coz I think it is the best Hokkien mee in Penang.

The other food at the coffee shop is also worth mentioning. The Indian Mee Goreng and the Wan Than Mee is good there.

There are customers who specifically come to eat mee goreng there. No mee goreng no eat policy. So what you will get is a good plate of mee goreng after a long wait if there is a crowd of customer coz poor boss is the chef, waiter cashier and dish washer. This man is a all rounder doing everything and it is a joy to see him cook with his own expressive style. The mee goreng is RM3.50 per plate

The Wan Than mee is favourful with chunky wan than. What sets this stall different from others is the gavy. Others have kinda thin soy-sause gravy but this guy's gravy is thick....thicken by egg and starch concoction with strips of black chinese mushoom. RM2.80 per plate. Soup based or dry based or just wan thans plus soup
