Time to rekindle a favorite hometown dish of mine which is the ever well-known Char Koay Teow. This is a must have every time I make a trip back and my favorite is located at Bayan Baru actually. I have tried in my numerous attempts to get it to taste as close as I can to the ones found in Penang but being slightly health conscious, I could not perfectly match it since I refuse to use lard cooking this dish.
