Sin Kheng Aun Hainanese Restaurant @ Lorong Chulia, Penang

Lunching at Sin Kheng Aun is a must-have each time we visit Penang. The hubs has been eating at this restaurant since he was a small kid whenever he travels to Penang with his late grandparents and aunts. We found out during our most recent trip to Sin Kheng Aun that the restaurant manager still fondly remembers my hubs and his grandparents, though he had not seen them for over 2 decades!

Here's what we ordered this time round:



Assam tau tai chong (pomfret fish) again, which is by far the freshest and tastiest we have had. This is a must-order dish and you will see this dish on almost every table. The assam gravy is SO addictive that one is bound to finish off even the last drop on the bowl!

Pork intestines soup with loads of pepper, phew.... really hot and keng! Downing a bowl of this hot pepper soup on a hot day is sure to make you perspire profusely with a burning stomach too!


Hainanese chicken chop. I love chicken chop cooked the Hainanese way, with green peas and big onions.


Braised turnip with crabmeat, best eaten when wrapped with fresh lettuce leaves. iLike!


Signature fried assam prawn.

This restaurant located at Lorong Chulia serves tasty Hainanese food at affordable prices except for the fish which can be a bit pricey. Be prepared to sweat it out at this restaurant as it is not air-conditioned. Can be really stuffy and humid on a sweltering day.
