Penang - Line Clear Nasi Kandar, Penang Road

"Nasi kandar", a popular rice dish of Indian-Muslim origin, served with a mind-boggling array of curries & side-dishes, is a must-have for any foodie to Penang.

Line Clear Nasi Kandar is incongruously located in a narrow alleyway, near the junction of Penang Road & Chulia Street in downtown Georgetown. It's been serving nasi kandar at the same spot for nearly 70 years now. The place stays open 24 hours.

Standing near the large cauldrons of bubbling curries, one cannot help but be seduced by the delicious aromas of the various curries being cooked: mutton khurma, chicken curry, giant fish-heads curry, etc.

    1. Thanks for this klyeoh, I'll be in Penang for 3 nights over the next two weeks and I'm having a tough time finding places to eat. I'll make a point of trying this!

          Penang's street foods are the best in the world! Look out for the other posts I made here (plus those by other CH like Penang_Rojak).
