These days, we do not have to travel all the way to Penang to enjoy the famous hawker fare, with the emergence of sister outlets here in KL/PJ. Recently, a friend of ours recommended that we try out Penang Rd Famous Teochew Chendul which have opened up an outlet in Paradigm Mall - she's a Penangite and tells us that the food here is pretty authentic.
We have walked past this outlet a few times in the past, but never stepped foot in as I was worried my kids would not be able to eat the spicy noodles. Turns out the noodles were not too spicy and the kids could enjoy it with us :)
The Famous Cendol
The outlet is pretty small, with limited tables and it is very popular so its common to see lots of people waiting for tables. We both ordered the Original Teochew Cendol (RM4.90) which arrived rather quickly. It is pretty good, creamy with a generous amount of cendol strands and red bean.
The noodles took sometime to arrive, possibly due to the limited kitchen space. We ordered the assam laksa (RM7.90) and Penang curry mee (RM7.90), both which we found quite mild tasting. The assam laksa was pretty good though a bit on the sweet side, however Baby C seemed to enjoy it very much. Penang curry mee is white when served, then you mix in the chilli paste and enjoy. I quite like the rich and creamy broth - this came with quite a nice amount of cockles, prawns, tofu puff and long beans.

I know it's a bit late now that Christmas is over, but here's some photos of the Christmas decor at Paradigm Mall. I saw on a friend's feed that they are reusing the bears but have changed their outfits to CNY ones.
Dessert time - none other than Cielo Dolci's salted caramel gelato ;) Oh-so-good!
Followed by 7 sins of chocolate at Delectable by Su
Such an adorable (gigantic!) bear at the entrance of the mall
Bear-y cute! :D
Price: RM25.60 for cendol + noodles.

ReplyDeleteAh cendol and assam laksa!! Haven't had both for long time! Make me feel hungry now. :P
ReplyDeleteOh yes, my favorite assam laksa! and that bowl of cendol looks really refreshing! I have to make my way there one of this day to try it!
ReplyDeleteNice price for the cendol! My grandmother is a big fan of cendol. So she would love to slurp up that big bowl :)
ReplyDeleteNo thank you for the cendol and assam laksa, i don't even visit the one at Penang road anymore, it becomes more like a tourist-trap right now, cater only for tourists, the locals hardly visit there, i have better options for both assam laksa and cendol here in Pg! Do let me know if you need more info in case you happen to drop by Penang, i'll be glad to share more with you! :D
ReplyDeleteI really have to visit Malaysia one day! I love cendol and assam laksa. And you learn something new every day like the term Penangite! :D
ReplyDeletePenang! My beautiful hometown.
