I am born and raise in penang Island. This uncle has been around for his char koay teow for ages. His cart has been his loyal companion. My family loves his char koay teow. If you love good food in penang, you must have patience to wait for the food. 😁 Oh, there are more local street food all hidden in wet markets in penang Island, its cheap, tasty and 'authentic'. Thanks for featuring this.

The Best Char Kway Teow I've ever had! I've been here years before I could vlog it of course (2012). Thank-you Uncle Tan!

being a foreigner, i’m lucky enough to have discovered this Uncle Char Kuey Teow the time no samrt phone, no Facebook.

Back in 2010 I always bring n intro my friends to this place when many still go to Lorong Selamat. Now uncle also top already. Bless you, uncle.

Great to see Uncle cooking indoors. I ate here few times and waited more than an hour each time. By the time my CKT arrives, one serving is enough. 😆 The coffee shop makes good business selling few rounds of drinks while u wait for your food.

This is true classic way of Penang FKY, individually prepared with awesome ' Wok Hei ', big prawns, bean sprout, spring onions light pork lark & delicacy epitomes how it is done perfectly 🙌🏼

Nearly 5 decade of mastering his craft, would really love to try his dishes.

Best Char Koey Teow in Penang and I don't even really like to eat CKT very much but when 7 years ago I used to work near the his stall I could eat his CKT every tea break lol. I've tried every corner of Penang CKT his still the best.

The father is still the best even when he cooks 5 plates at a time. Used to eat at his place when I was 4 years old, bringing my own tiffin carrier to tapau back to my granny's place in 140a, Malacca Str. Those were the times where even the wantan mee came knocking on his wooden implement while cycling to take orders for tot-tok mee (wantan mee) No plastics but perfectly balanced bowls or noodles either dry or soupy. There was even the guy pushing his laksa stall or the candy man with his boiled candies in a pan, chipping away the hardened candy when we ordered.

I am so amazed that all the people waiting for their CKT are so SKINNY! Awesome food!

Fish sauce and the charcoal.

Very common

Good things come in small packages.

其他小贩不能炒出鍋气来是因为他们用煤气。 而且他们常因为没客人的时候把煤气关了来减低成本。这样锅就降温, 冷锅炒白出鍋气。 只有用煤炭才能一直把火烧热锅。

Besides most restaurants in Penang are family run so that the cost savings are passed on to the customer. Also ,they just shifted into the store after decades of just operating by the pushcart. The new shop is quite limited in space as you can see.

Red hot charcoal and black wok is his combination to produce his delicious kue teow.
