    If you visiting Chew Jetty and thinking whether you could have a snack around, then look no where else other than Lam Ah Kopitiam where you can get good Oh Chien (Oyster omelette) and beef noodle.

    While Taiwan has its own thick sweetish kind, and Thailand a crisper version, I still enjoy Penang’s Oh Chien – potato starch fried with eggs and oysters.

    Ordered a large plate (RM10) to try and I liked it better than the version at Seng Thor . The egg batter is crispy – almost like fritters, while the oysters were justly cooked, moist and bursting with flavour.

    The place for crispy Oh Chien is in Lam Ah Coffeeshop at the intersection of Beach and Chulia Street, opposite the Lebuh Pantai fire station (Bomba).

    After reading & hearing great things about the food I went along just after 11.30 to avoid the queues. I need not have bothered, I was the only customer. No sign of the oyster omelette stall, I was told that they have moved on.

    It was quite an enjoyable walk looking for this place.. the only thing we remembered was that this was opposite the bomba station! An old uncle was kind enough to direct us there and stay and have his lunch there too..

    The noodle store has changed operator. I just visited this place last two weeks. Very few customers there. Not sure where the original seller has moved to.

    Love the oyster omelette. But is it still operating there?
