About the Business

At Penang Hawker Food, we specialize in bringing the flavors of Penang to Australia. Our menu features many traditional Penang dishes that are prepared with great consistency and attention to detail. Since discovering our restaurant in 2020, many customers have become regulars, enjoying the amazing flavors and quality of our food.
One of our popular dishes is the Penang Hokkien Mee, a prawn noodle soup that is uncomplicated yet bursting with flavor. You can customize the spiciness by adding sambal chili to your taste. Another unique offering is the Assam Laksa, a noodle dish with thicker traditional laksa rice noodles in a fish and assam/tamarind soup. It is both flavorful and satisfying.
For those who enjoy sharing dishes, our Malaysia Style Lor Bak is a great choice. It is nicely fried and served sliced up with bean curd, showcasing the marinated meat inside. Another favorite is the Malaysian Style Nasi Lemak, a tasty dish that comes with your choice of fried chicken or curry chicken.
We also take pride in our Char Kuey Teow, which has a delicious wok hey flavor and is considered one of the top 10 in Perth. Additionally, our Lor Mee, a noodle dish with the right amount of thickness in the broth, is not commonly found in Perth, making it a unique and flavorful option.

Reviews
"Many dishes from Penang are.offered here and done pretty well very consistenly! Have been coming regularly since discovering it in 2020. Here are reviews of just some of the offerings taken mostly at lunch or as take away: Penang Hokkien Mee (Prawn Noodle Soup) is uncomplicated in the number of ingredients yet true to its flavour. Add sambal chilli to taste as to how hot you want it. Assam Laksa: not many in Perth do this noodle dish. It has thicker traditional laksa rice noodles in a fish & assam/Tamarind soup. Very flavoursome & you add the "hair koh" according to your taste. Malaysia Style Lor Bak: nicely fried and served sliced up with a few pieces of bean curd. You can see the marinated met inside and taste is quite true to what one gets in Penang. A great dish for sharing during a meal. Malaysian Style Nasi Lemak: Tasty & comes with either a fried chicken or a curry chicken. A take away pleaser for us. Char Kuey Teow: Has good wok hey and amongst the top 10 CKT in Perth Lor Mee: this noodle dish is not offered by many in Perth. It has the right amount of thickness in the broth without it being too gluggy. The flavour is great & one adds the sambal chilli to taste. So glad that they offer to cook this on their menu. Have posted the menu(taken 21 July 2023) in here so you can see what they have for offer. They really have a lot more dishes that are done quite well so.if you get a chance, please try the dishes and share what you think about them! NOTE: due to insufficient take up, was told that they may change their "breakfast offering & hours" so please check if going earlier than 1030am"
"We ordered a char kuey teow and a Jawa mee (only available on weekends) for lunch. It is a very small shop but they offer authentic and delicious Malaysian dishes."
"Had their Jawa Mee (Special) & Char Kuey Teow, both which were really delicious. Also had their Thai Rice (Special) & Lor Mee, which was so good. Be sure to ask what they have on special."
"This has been our local favourite feel good eatery ever since they open in June 2018. The head chef is still the same cooking up delicious authentic Malaysian cuisine, even with a recent change of ownership. This restaurant has brought life back to the little corner on Barbican Street ever since it’s opened, with the mostly packed days a testimony of both the cuisine and services. Service remains efficient and good, and prompt serving of dishes ensure a great dining experience, especially with young kids. Overall a really family friendly Malaysian restaurant serving up delicious cuisine to cure your homesickness. Some of our favourite dishes include Penang Assam Laksa, Rochor mee, combo hofun with egg sauce, Claypot curry fish head, hokkien char, japanese tofu hotplate & char kway teow."
