    A popular item here is the yam rice, judging from the number of bowls on each table. The rice, cooked with yam cubes, dried shrimp and dark soy sauce, was moist and aromatic.

    The yam rice featured here is from Sentosa Corner coffee shop in Taman Sentosa, Bukit Mertajam. It was regarded as one of the most famous and best yam rice in Penang. However, it seems to me that their quality had degraded.

    It's a coffee shop with a few food varieties but i see 90% of the customers come here for the yam rice. I've been here twice to eat that as well. The yam rice is good & price is reasonable. Serving is fast.

    Heard the local recommend their Yam rice is famous so I give it a try. Not bad overall then neizhang is well clean. The cili can be better. Their prawn mee is ok ok also. Better prawn taste in th soup but slight lack of spiciness.

    The yam rice is definitely worth trying! However, the polo bun didn’t quite impress me and was a little pricey for what it is. It was also very crowded on Sunday morning.
