Chee Cheong Fun is among Malaysians’ favourite dish, either as a breakfast, simple snack or a companion when your tummy is bored. It’s literally translated at pig intestine noodles, yet don’t jump out of your seat, it’s purely rice noodles and visually resembles a pig intestine. The texture of the rice noodles is pivotal and the thick gooey prawn paste and chili sauce is what completes the dish. It might sound simple, however it requires lots of skills and savoury. Spots below are highly vaunted among Penangites, be it sticking to the original flavours or spinning new flavour twists, it’s all here!

Restaurant 1288
Another full of life food court at Paya Terubong that has been a melting pot of local delights under one roof. An amiable lady has been stalking up praises for her Hong Kong style Chee Cheong Fun, which has pork filling (char siew) and shrimps as an additional layer of flavour. The rice noodles are suffused with gooey prawn sauce, a splash of sesame oil and spicy chili sauce. There is a lot going on at each bite, yet the ethereal lightness of the noodles is well maintained.
