    A delicious hawker stall at the junction of Kimberly Street, just a short walk from Chowrasta Market. The old couple offers traditional chee cheong fun with their own made sauce, a combination of sweet, salty, and sour.

    They serve streetside chee cheong fun Penang style, since the 40s. I'm not used to the taste of the sauce since I'm used to Singaporean chee cheong fun, so my eyes are definitely opened haha.

    Tried this very famous food cart that sells chee cheong fun. On his cart, you can see many photos of renown chef and celebrities. Tried their chee cheong Fun which I personally think that it was very normal.
