Back in Penang to vote? Don't forget these eateries


The starch part of Penang orh chien is soft and gooey. Check out this delicacy at the stall in New Lane, off Macalister Road.

VOTING or not, people still have to eat, and Penang is not lacking in choice for that.

While renowned sensations like Siam Road char koay teow, Penang Road cendol and Air Itam assam laksa are likely to record brisk sales, other hawkers can expect to see better sales during the polling season.
