Lorong Seratus Tahun Curry Mee

Lorong Seratus Tahun Curry Mee (24 July 2010)


The Lorong Seratus Tahun Curry Mee has been my favourite Curry Mee in Penang for a long while. As the name suggests, it operates out of the coffee shop at the junction of Lorong Seratus Tahun with Naning Street. The address is 50 Lorong Seratus Tahun.

The curry mee stall at Lorong Seratus Tahun is said to have been operating since 1960, when it was begun by the father of the present operator. It is available every day until lunch. You are allowed free flow of the chilli paste, which is placed on the table. Ingredients in the curry mee includes fish balls, cuttlefish, cubed blood, prawns and mint leaves.

My visits to the Lorong Seratus Tahun Curry Mee

31 July 2020
After a few years of not coming here, my wife and I decided to give the Lorong Seratus Tahun Curry Mee another try. We arrived very early, before the stall began operating, and so had to wait a bit before the business commenced. We were the first table to receive our order. Since we were still under movement control order, they no longer leave the chilli paste on the table for patrons to scoop, but put it on the spoon for each bowl.

I can't describe it but I feel that the taste is not as nice as it was years ago. I do not know why, considering all the ingredients are still there. Maybe my tastebud had changed, maybe my expectation was too high. I am not sure. I will come back in another time in the future, to give it another try, to see if I still felt the same way.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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