The quintessential Penang curry mee

Wet or dry: Another popular stall is that which is helmed by Roy Chong in Bayan Baru, Penang

THE eagerly anticipated showdown of the best street food purveyors — the Battle of Penang Hawker Masters 2012 — kicks off at the Penang Times Square tomorrow with a new category — curry mee.

Visitors to the event, to be held between noon and 2pm at the mall’s Chin Ho Plaza, will get to sample lip-smacking curry mee and vote for their favourite.
