Market Food Street is a non-halal food court at The TOP in Komtar, Penang. One of the many dining outlets at The TOP, it is where you can enjoy various hawker food at reasonable prices.
My wife and I were treated to lunch at Market Food Street by the management of The TOP on 6 November, 2018. We had earlier had a late breakfast at Imperial Court Restaurant and then visited TOP Boutique Aquarium. After one and a half hours touring the aquarium, we have fully digested the breakfast and were ready for lunch.

Market Food Street is created so that people who want to enjoy Penang food and do so in air-conditioned comfort, and not have to "food court prices". You will see that most items are priced around RM6 per plate, so they are almost the same as what you would get at the traditional kopitiams.
The hawker stalls are lined up along the side, while the drinks stall is in its own island at the centre of the food hall. Ordering is easy. No need to purchase coupons, just pay direct.
Here are some of the stalls. You can see that the prices are comparable to outside.

For our lunch, we had chicken rice, curry mee and Chinese porridge. No complains for any of the dishes served to us. Take a look at them.
It was the first time we ate at Market Food Street, and I am quite surprised that the food is neither bad nor expensive! (6 November 2018)

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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