We saw restaurants offering similar menus but at very different prices from diner to lavish restaurant, and even a beachside barbecue.
I thought the streetside cafe would be a good compromise.
It was, except that every motorcycle in Penang had decided to join the rally that was parading loudly infront of the cafe.
The food was good, while not inexpensive, was good value for money.
They featured pizzas on the menu and were disappointed to find out that they charged a royalty to order it from the corner shop nearby.
Monica really enjoyed this Keema Matar made from Ground Lamb with Peas. It was excellent with flatbread.
Our other place on the list for the fabled Kang Beef House. By day, the coffeeshop serves beef soup 3 ways from a cart-like station--herbal, claypot and kway teow soup.
Herbal, which had a very nice balance of medicinal and sweet herbs and earthy broth.
The hearty claypot version that had a rich broth that made your lips gummy.
And my favorite kway teow soup with the tangy, fiery chili dipping sauce.
This place is easy to miss and is on an out of the way nook.
The fabulous Batu Lanchang Market was nearby, and a great place to visit to walk off your lunch.
We love the fact that the produce here arrives later in the day and is therefore fresher for late risers!
We had been talking about taking pictures beside the ever changing Precinct 10 sign, so we finally made time to do so.
