Thew Chik Café

Thew Chik Hainan Chicken Rice (25 January 2013)


Thew Chik Café (GPS: 5.41886, 100.33546) is a Hainanese Chicken Rice shop along Chulia Street. It is located at the junction with Rope Walk. The Goh Thew Chik Hainanese Chicken Rice has been operating here since the middle part of the 20th century. Chicken rice was once regarded as food for those with means, at a time when chicken was considered a delicacy reserved for special occasions.

Goh Thew Chik Hainanese Chicken Rice is still doing good business from its devoted customers. I have eaten here only before, but does not find the chicken rice to be particularly outstanding. Having said that, I can say that it is still the most convenient for budget travelers living in the guesthouses along Chulia Street.

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I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware.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