My Thoughts
My favorite place for KTT and it never disappoints! Been eating here for quite awhile and even though they are famous their quality still is up to standards.
Their eel fish balls are one of a kind, hand-made with the right amount of “doink” to it. I personally enjoy their soup noodles but you may also try their dry noodles which are nice as well. They also have Char Koay Teow there which I think is not too bad too! If you want to try what eel fish ball is like, this is the place!

My Thoughts
A friend recommended this to me and I’m so glad I tried this place! It’s a popular local spot to get your KTT fix.
I love having their dry koay teow but their koaw teow th’ng is equally good! The most special thing they have in their noodles is the yummiest pork tendon ball which I can’t find in any other local KTT stalls. You can even add on chicken meat as a side dish if you feel like having a feast!
Since MCO, the place has been really clean compared to before. So I really would recommend this place as it’s very local and cheap!

My Thoughts
Penang is famous for anything with duck meat. This is just one of the places I would go to if I’m craving for good duck meat KTT.
I feel that their KTT is great because it’s light and flavorful at the same time. They also serve innards so if you don’t eat any make sure to let them know.
Their service is quick and easy. It’s also self-service so you just need to wait a moment before taking it to your table. Overall a great place to get food quickly and a very good idea if you’re super hungry!
