Pak Tam Mee Udang (GPS: 5.27872, 100.24158) is a popular mee udang stall in Teluk Kumbar. It is located along the beach at Teluk Bayu. In the past year or so, it has been visited by many people, so I was also curious to give it a try.
There are many mee udang stalls in Teluk Kumbar, which is famous for mee udang in Penang. My favourite stall has been Ayu Mee Udang, so I was eager to give this one a try. I searched the Internet for information, but saw that most bloggers did not provide details of how to get there. As you can see on this page, I actually had to hunt for how to reach the place. I know that I could walk in, but was determine to drive my car right to the spot.

Do I like Pak Tam Mee Udang?
Oh yes, I think it is very good, and at RM10, cheaper than the mee udang at Ayu, which is now RM16 per plate. However, I have to say that the prawns at Ayu is larger. But the number of prawns given at Pak Tam is not bad - five to a plate! Taste wise, both are equally good. I do not mind going to Pak Tam and Ayu mee udang alternately.
