    A popular item here is the yam rice, judging from the number of bowls on each table. The rice, cooked with yam cubes, dried shrimp and dark soy sauce, was moist and aromatic.

    The yam rice featured here is from Sentosa Corner coffee shop in Taman Sentosa, Bukit Mertajam. It was regarded as one of the most famous and best yam rice in Penang. However, it seems to me that their quality had degraded.

    I came here based on a recommendation from xhs! It was my first time trying taro rice, and it had so much taro paste in it! The salted vegetable soup and pork offal soup were also very refreshing with their sweet and sour flavors.

    Heard the local recommend their Yam rice is famous so I give it a try. Not bad overall then neizhang is well clean. The cili can be better. Their prawn mee is ok ok also. Better prawn taste in th soup but slight lack of spiciness.
