Chasing wok hei across George Town since the first bowl. Picks lean old-school hawker, no judgement on a good mamak at midnight.

Coconut-rich without going claggy. Cockles plump, the chilli paste on the side so you set your own pain. One of the few that gets the balance right.

Herbal and dark, the broth you refill twice. Pork falls off the bone. A rainy-day default I keep coming back to.

Big round table, butter prawns, claypot tofu, a fish that tasted like it saw the sea this morning. This is where I bring people I am trying to impress.
