Best of all, they seem to be open all the time. So, I took my 3 and sometimes 4 daily meals here. There is a lot of variety here. Plenty of stalls to choose from with delicious food. Lots of local Penang fare. However, I noticed the prices are not the same as before so I guess inflation have crept up slowly but surely."
