Macalister road, Penang (my very first post)

Everyone knows Penang is the best of the best place for food hunting. :) The hawker centers are definitely a must go due to the variety of food sold. From sweet to savory, spicy to soupy, one must visit the hawker center at Macalister Road.

Located near the heart of Georgetown, this hawker center is THE place for food lovers. It is crowded day and night and everytime I come here, I end up waiting for a table but...the wait is worth it! 

8.5/10
No char koay teow beats the char koay teow at Penang but oh boy...this one makes you drool by the looks of it. The prawns are fresh and juicy unlike most prawns in other char koay teow which aren't very tasty. This one also has the right amount of spiciness! 

7/10
I'm usually not a huge fan of chee cheong fun but the smell of this one just inculcates the hunger in me!
9/10
"O Chien" or omelette with oysters and starch. Clearly one of the best I've tasted!
If your tastebuds are seeking for some adventure, dip the oysters/egg in the chili sauce they provide. Fireworks in my mouth!


5/10
Pork and pork intestine satay
This is my first time tasting a satay which isn't chicken. The onions and cucumbers given were kinda too little and the pork wasn't juicy enough :( the sauce could've been a bit spicier and sweeter but what an interesting twist to the regular satays! 

I actually ate more than this but didn't take pictures of the other food I ordered. The claypot chicken rice and sar hor fun is one of best I've tasted! 

If you happen to visit Penang, this place is a must to visit!
