Diner notes
5 out of 5
Flavorful soup (better than the other Michelin guide Ah Boy Kouy Teav Th’ng). The only thing though, most fishballs used here in Penang including at this restaurant are of low quality. They are brittle and sometimes too salty. They have a flour consistency to them. I recommend you sitting towards the inside, closer to the wall since sitting on the perimeter of the shop will have the smell of the open sewer whifting up towards you.

Koay Teow Th'ng,the broth is sweet and clear, made by simmering old hen and pork bones over low heat for a long time. The soup is crystal clear, yet has a rich and complex flavor profile. Paired with a cup of bittersweet Kopi O, it's a very typical Penang brunch combination. Taste of old Penang
