    As soon as we walked into Ang Hoay Lor, this half a century old restaurant situated along Jalan Gurdwara in George Town, we were hit by this overwhelming sense of nostalgia.

    One of our Saturday lunch was held at Ang Hoay Loh, located at the corner garden space of the State Chinese (Penang) Association on Perak Road. This restaurant is an icon for some of Penang’s most authentic cuisines.

    The ambience was an unmistakably retro one; not manufactured like the many retro-fitted boutique cafes in town but the real deal.

    Really enjoyed the food here—it felt like a taste of home. The dishes were comforting and wholesome, prepared in a simple yet heartwarming way that reminded me of meals from childhood.

    We went slightly before closing time at approx 2pm and tried their oyster noodles and oyster omelette. Love both of it!! Oyster noodles is soaked in strong seafood broth.

    A uniquely Hokkien style of cooking that is milder in taste, with less sauces, oil, and seasoning than Cantonese cuisine, and less variety of dishes. The first-time diner would likely find the dishes bland and uninspiring.

    Traditional, long-established restaurant specializing in stir-fries, fish with fermented soybean paste, Malay-style stir-fry, garlic sprouts with dried tofu, and fried shrimp. "The taste of mom's cooking."

    Is a old school place where the food brings back memories. The moment I see the food, it brings back memories of my grandfather..

    Very authentic Hokkien cuisine. Like the Bak Kee soup very much. However, it's a bit pricey.

    Dishes looks good but taste normal only. Fried Oyster is the best among all that we ordered. Very authentic local food.

    The taste was alright, but I still prefer the one on Wutiaolu Road.
