Ming Xiang Tai Pastry Shop, Victoria Street

Ming Xiang Tai Pastry Shop, Victoria Street (5 June 2013)


Ming Xiang Tai is a pastry shop in George Town, Penang. I came its main outlet along Burmah Road. Then recently, when I was on the way to photograph the Giant Cat Mural, I discovered that Ming Xiang Tai Pastry Shop has opened a branch along Victoria Street. The branch began operations on 25 May, which is just about a week after I passed by.

Ming Xiang Tai Pastry Shop along Victoria Street is housed in a single-storey traditional-style pre-war building. It has a portico supported by a pair of column. When I saw the shop, it wasn't open. I suppose its opening hours are much later.

Among the pastries you can get at Ming Xiang Tai include egg tarts, crispy yam puffs, siew paus, pandan salted egg pastry and wedding cookie.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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