Road Side Hakwer Stall in front of Honda @ Jalan Sungai Pinang, Penang

We have been wanted to patronise the hawker stall in front of Honda at Sungai Pinang for a long time. And finally we make our way there without my gal as she is schooling. We learned from our friends that there are always pack with people most of the time. So we choose to go during weekday. But the verdict is still full of people. But we managed to get a seat. ^-^
The only things in my mind is to try the mee sua as it is very popular in this place. So the first things hubby went to order is
Duck Drumstick Mee Sua
When the Mee Sua arrived, both hubby and I both reckon that the mee sua must be very soft judge by the look. As we don't really enjoy the noodles textures being over cooked. So as usual, captured some photo of the foods and hubby starts to dig in. And he told me that the mee sua textures is ok.
This bowl of duck drumstick mee sua is mine as hubby had the pork spare ribs and stomach mee sua. My bowl of mee sua tastes nice and the textures of the mee sua suits my taste buds. Once we parked our car nearby the stall, we already smell the herbal aroma came from this stall. And the soup base are full of herbal aroma and the duck drumstick is very tender.
The herbal uses for the soup base such as dang gui, wolfberries, dried mandarin peel and....... (p/s note: It has a very strong herbal aroma!!!!)

Pork Spare Ribs and Stomach Mee Sua
This is hubby ordered. And hubby loves it very much. But the spare ribs is not very tender compares to the duck drumstick. ^-^ At first hubby thought that the soup base for both mee sua are the same. After I tried hubby soup base, I told hubby that I prefer mine. Then hubby tastes some of the duck drumstick and he agrees with me. Hooray! I make another better choice than him again!!!! lol
We were sitting in front of this moving around motor bike selling chai koay and or koay. And hubby saw the wording " A TRY WILL CONVINCE YOU". Ah..... he was thinking why not give it a try! So he ordered some chai koay and "oh" kuih from the uncle as following:
Chai Koay and "oh" kuih
2 different chai koay
Look at the skin of the chai koay. It looks nice right? Well, both the chai koay taste nice.
"Oh Kuih" (Yam)
I am very particular with "oh kuih" as most of the place you get you cannot get the textured of the yam. And nowadays, most of the people nicely blend it. But I still prefer my "oh kuih" have some cube yam in there. And this stall "oh kuih" have few yam cube in there. The tastes vice is not bad.
Nasi Lemak
After hubby finished his breakfast, he is waiting for me as I still take my own sweet time to enjoy my breakfast. He looked around and he spotted the nasi lemak stall and he told me he went there and check it out. When he returned, he came back with a plate of nasi lemak. lol
But he make a good move though. As if he did not check it out this stall, we will not savour this nice aroma and tasty nasi lemak. The sambal uses were so tasty and the rice has a great aroma that hubby thought of "take away" for our gal. But after much discussion, we did not bought her that as we worried by the time she come home from school, the nasi lemak might be spoilt.
After school, hubby told her that we went to have a nice aroma and did not take away for her as we scare that it spoilt and she kept complaining that we always go to have some nice foods while she is busy schooling. lol We promised her to bring her there to try one day.
Business Hour: 8am - 1pm (Closed on alternate Sunday)

Sungai Pinang Food Court

During the opening of Sungai Pinang Food Court, we went there over the weekend. And it was very crowded. I guessed because it's new opening, so every one is flocking in to try the foods offered in this food court. If hubby did not mentioned this place, I have all forgotten about this place. As when they are doing some renovation of the food court, we passed by there and saw their banner. Since one outing, hubby and gal want some hawker foods, so we headed to Sungai Pinang Food Court. Alan and Jian has blog about this place as well. Please pop by their blogs have more food choices.
During this outing, hubby and gal went around and ordered some of the foods below:
(You must be wonder, where am I right? I have to sit down and reserve place for them lor or else we cannot get a seat. lol)

Pineapple Chicken Rice
My gal wanna have some rice, and both hubby and gal chose this. The chicken is very tender and tastes nice but a bit spicy for my gal though.
Ikan Bakar
Hubby loves the ikan bakar and the fish. He is the one who almost finished the whole plate.
Belachan fried Chicken
You can find this belachan chicken stall in many location in Penang. And their deep fried belachan chicken tastes nice.
"So Tei" Soup with noodles
Since I told hubby that I want some soup. So he went to this stall that's sell all kind of soups. Hubby intend to order other soup for me but was told that the business is too good and was sold out. So he recommended hubby to try this" So Tei" soup. And you have the choice to go with rice or noodles. The stall owner kept telling hubby that their noodles are very tasty. So how could hubby reject it since it is recommended by the stall owner.
Hubby found that the noodles are ok. But wilI prefer some QQ textures. lol The soup base is ok only for my tastes bud. ^-^
Laksa
hubby order himself a bowl of laksa to try and he comment that the laksa is just taste normal only.
Well, that's what we had for our dinner @ Sungai Pinang Food Court. There are still many stalls to explore, they even have desserts stall, fried rice stall, claypot rice stall and many more. Pop by there and try it out yourself.
