Sister’s Char Koay Teow

Hands down the best ckt I have had, and I’ve been looking. I think this is the most recent location… Be sure to bring cash.

Char Kuey Teow is one of my favorite (NUMBER ONE) Penang food. Back when I was younger, during my very first trip to Penang with my family, the only food I had through out the trip was Char Kuey Teow. 3 – 4 meals a day of Char Kuey Teow (I’m not even kidding!). Aside from the obvious that Penang’s Char Kuey Teow is exceptionally delicious, the reason that I had them every meal was because I was very picky in terms of food as well.
Back then (when I was really young), I didn’t know how to enjoy Penang’s Asam Laksa and other yummilicious food. All I know was, whenever my parents ask me what I want, it’ll be Char Kuey Teow. Till now, whenever I go to Penang, that is one of the must have food. Sister’s Char Kuey Teow is one of the very famous Char Kuey Teow place in Penang. Almost everyone of my friend been there before whenever they visit Penang. Some really like it, some find them overrated and pricy.
Their Char Kuey Teow is different from the normal ones because they contains crab meat. The crab meats is usually placed on top of the Char Kuey Teow (not being fried together). This place is always packed with people. No matter how many time I went, they are super packed. So, most of the time we just take away and eat them in the hotel because the coffee shop where they are operating is just way too small and stuffy. Sister’s Char Kuey Teow is so yummy that I always have at least 2 packet myself. So, it’s best to buy some extras (or you might regret it).
P/​S: I heard that back then (many many many years ago), when the sisters were still young, they used to dance while frying the Char Kuey Teow. They used to be ‘Dancing Sister’s Char Kuey Teow’.

The Penang island is one of the famous tourist attractions in Malaysia among local and foreign tourists. Penang is known for it’s buddhist temples, gurney drive, beaches, and their local cuisines. Penang have always been one of my favourite holiday destinations in Malaysia, I like Penang mainly for their local cuisines and their local tourist attractions (Temples and etc.).
One of my favourite local penang cuisines has got to be Sister’s Char Koay Teow at Joo Hooi Café that is located along Macalister road. They are one of the oldest and most established Char Koay Teow stalls in Penang. I have been having their char koay teow since I was a little kid. The thing I find that their meal is unique and authentic is that they will always sprinkle crab meat on top of their char koay teow which makes it so good.
I used to remember that my parents will always order more than 10 packets of char koay teow to bring home for relatives, every time when we are here for the holidays. I highly recommend this Sister’s Char Koay Teow to all the visiting tourists that is in Penang for the holidays.
