Recently we found a place that serves authentic Penang food at Lorong Seratus Tahun @ Scott's Gardens, where the newly opened Tesco at Old Klang Road is. Well, not sure if it's really cooked by some chefs from Penang but the food did taste authentic and I loved it. Scott's Garden is a new shopping mall (with Tesco being the main anchor tenant) smacked in the middle of Old Klang Road KL. The kopitiam style restaurant was packed to the brim when we arrived, which was more often than not a sign that the food is good.
So here's what we had. For those of you who love Penang food, get ready a hanky to wipe off your drool...
This plate of char koay teow cost a whopping RM22.90 but it was quite justifiable with 7 medium-size prawns... only 6 prawns here as my starving hubs pecked one just as the plate was placed on the table...
Nasi lemak set with Penang lobak...
Fried rice for my fan thoong aka rice pot Alycia...
Fish balls noodles soup... this is however nothing to shout about.
Prawn paste chee cheong fun. Love this plate of carbs as I love prawn paste. The prawn paste was thick and the noodles smooth.
Breakfast set... kaya was sandwiched between the toasted bread. I liked the caramel kaya so much that I asked for another serving, at no extra cost.
Ice Kacang topped with a scoop of ice cream...
Food was great but I do think that the plate of char koay teow was over-priced. There will be a second visit to this kopitiam, when we next shop for our groceries at Tesco.

Scott Garden is our latest hangout place right now :P BTW, we ordered that plate of CKT and find it over-priced too. My mom ordered the same one with less prawns for rm9 and it taste the same as the expensive one. no more 2nd time. psst...do not go to the sambal place. tom dick and harry is good :)
Tom, Dick & Harry - will def give that a try very soon :D
Hmmm....looks really good. We usually go to Little Penang for authentic Pg food. Btw, I used to live abt 5 mins' walk from Leg Seratus Tahun!!
Chris, so there's indeed a Lorong Seratus Tahun!! I thought it was only a name for the restaurant :)
And I thought lorong seratus tahun is famous for its curry noodles?
