Best Satays in Penang

Written by Updated ago

The streets of Penang are persistently lined with an abundance of alluring stalls which reflect our multicultural makeup. An all-time favourite, satay originated in Indonesia and is a popular local delight with chunks of marinated dice-sized meats glided into skewers and grilled over a charcoal flame. Be it chicken, beef, lamb or even pork satay, there's something irresistible about the sweet, smoky aroma of grilled meat. As a sure sign indicator, if there is wispy smoke, you’re heading towards a satay stall. So, bring along your meat-loving mates and dig in to some of the best satay in the food paradise of Malaysia.

    Bangkok Lane Satay

    Along the unruffled Bangkok Lane, Uncle Ah Hun and his humble Hainan satay pushcart stall have been satisfying the palates of Penangites for more than 20 years. The Hainanese migrants had their own version of satay, where it’s yellowish in color and less spicy.  The main draw of Ah Hun's pork satay is the dipping sauce, where the usual peanut sauce is swapped with a starchy and viscous mashed potato sauce, pepped up with their tight-lipped secret ingredients. Paired with fluffy toasted bread, it sounds peculiar but is a perfect match made in (gastronomic) heaven!

    Tips

    There’s a nearby coffee shop that you can bring your satay to dine at.

    Things to expect

    Uncle Ah Hun goes elusive at times; luck plays a major part.
