@greatestfoodman: Penang Char Koay Teow! If you’re on a Penang Char Koay Teow hunt, No.5 is often one of the top recommendations. One thing to note — the waiting time can be quite long, and the service wasn’t the best during our visit (we asked for drinks that never arrived). That said, the Koay Teow itself delivers. Strong wok hei, rich umami, and slightly on the sweeter side rather than salty — a flavour profile that stands out. All in all, No.5 definitely earns its place among Penang’s top Char Koay Teow spots. 📍 No.5 Char Koay Teow Penang, Malaysia
