Jelutong Market Wantan Mee Stall - Best in Penang

The best Wantan Mee in Penang in my personal opinion is the stall at Jelutong Market. It is located at a makeshift coffee shop facing Ipoh Lane. There may be several Wantan Mee stalls in the Jelutong Market.

My choice for Best Wantan Mee in Penang (16 September 2010)


To find the best Wantan Mee in Penang, go to Jelutong Market in the morning and look for the makeshift coffee ship where the only food hawker is the Wantan Mee stall. Its business is so good that the coffee ship doesn't need any other hawkers (although you can certainly order over dishes from neighbouring hawker stalls if you are not having Wantan Mee on that day.

My wife and I usually have our Wantan Mee breakfast there at least once a week. What we like about this Wantan Mee is that the noodles are very springy, and the wantans are meaty, unlike other places where there is little meat, just the skin.

My favourite Wantan Mee in Penang (16 September 2010)


Make sure you don't go too late, as you will not find a table, and you will have a long wait for your Wantan Mee. And if you found me having my breakfast at the stall, do say hello!

Updates

November 2012
Although this stall remains my favorite for now, unfortunately the quality is not as good as it was in 2010, when I selected it. In my last two visits, the soysauce of the wan tan mee seems a little bit more watery (I like it thick) than it previously was. Did they change their recipe? Oh dear. I hope to see an improvement when I visit it again in future. Recipes must never be changed.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
