Ipoh Lane, Jelutong, when market is in session (3 December 2016)
Ipoh Lane or Lorong Ipoh is a lane in Jelutong, Penang. It is the first parallel road west of the Jelutong Main Road. The lane actually forms an "L". The section between Lebuhraya Jelutong and Penaga Road is a straight proper road with terrace houses on both sides. It bends to the left and continues a short distance before becoming Lorong Batu. Beyond the intersection of Juru Lane is Lorong Batu.
Ipoh Lane comes alive every morning when the Jelutong Market is in full swing. The Jelutong Market building is located at the junction of Ipoh Lane and Penaga Road, but the stalls spill over to Ipoh Lane and Penaga Road.

The stalls along Ipoh Lane nearest the junction to Penaga Road sell vegetables, eggs, spices, kitchen utensils and freshly cooked dishes. Further south along Ipoh Lane, the stalls sell dry items such as flowers, plants, toys, watches - the usual pasar malam stuff.
I usually go to the Jelutong Market on Ipoh Lane at least once a week to enjoy the Wantan Mee there. It is, in my opinion, the best wantan mee in Penang.
Once regarded as the working-class sister to George Town, now Jelutong has developed into a major residential neighbourhood, and home to a lot of good hawker food. Let the food lovers at Hawker Food Planet show you what's good to eat there.

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While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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.
