Goreng Pisang, Curry Mee and O Kio @ Weld Quay

During the recent Sg Petani trip, we made a day trip to Penang for what else....but food! Hahahah! I recommend Weld Quay because you can get everything here - main meal, kuih and dessert. Unfortunately I did not take a photo of the curry mee as I was busy whopping it down. The name of the hawkere there is Tua Pui Curry Mee but be warned, it is pretty hot with no air-con.

However I do have photos of the goreng pisang. In addition to the goreng pisang, this hawker also sold various other types of kuihs. Not cheap at 70sen per piece and very small serving too. But there was a queue and people were lining up to buy, buy, buy. The family hard at work...peeling the bananas.....they never had time to have stock for the ready products!
The patriach of the family frying away. Since we waited quite long, we realise what his secret was....he will fry the bananas first. Then he takes it out to dip it again into the flour mixture and voila, fry again. Double crispy, man!
Nearby, the dessert truck with something very interesting called O Kio.

A photo of it - ice with a slice of lemon and jelly.

The landmark will be the bird shop name Tan Bee Eng.
