Best Curry Mee
in Penang
Penang Curry Mee is a creamy, coconut-rich noodle soup that is distinctly different from the curry laksas found in southern Malaysia. The broth is a pale, milky coconut base that is transformed into a fiery red masterpiece only when you stir in the vendor's signature fried chili paste. A standard bowl features a mix of yellow noodles and rice vermicelli, topped with tofu puffs (*tau pok*), prawns, cuttlefish, and fresh blood cockles. For many locals, the soul of the dish lies in the addition of **'coagulated pig’s blood cubes'**, which have a silky, tofu-like texture. The trap is finding a broth that is "watery" or lacks the rich, coconut-milk fragrance; a proper version should be velvety and deeply aromatic from the addition of dried shrimp in the chili paste. Expect to pay RM6–RM12.
