Ho Chiak Curry Mee Review

Ho chiak (好吃) is actually a Hokkien dialogue which means delicious. This stall is located along Jalan Pengkalan Weld. If you know how to go to 65 year’s old Mr. Chong Hokkien Mee stall, then you will found Ho Chiak stall. Both of them are located on the same hawker center.

So, does the Ho Chiak Curry mee really delicious? Let found out more here.

Before you enter the hawker center, you will found a banner hanging outside the hawker cente. The stall has a tag line of  “Feel the authentic taste of Penang CURRY NOODLE (in Malays is called Mee)! Eat once and you will know… “. I have tried it today and I already know how it tastes.

How does the food taste?

For me, I always order the curry mee without any add on. It only come with some tofu and some bean sprout and is kind of similar to what I ordered in Ah Hong curry mee stall. Here is how the actual dishes look like.

Penang Curry Mee is also known as Penang White Curry Mee, where the curry soup is white in color prior to the mixing the curry paste to the soup. Ho Chiak version is an good example of it.

Ho Chiak’s version is  kind of less spicy and sweet when compare to Ah Hong’s version. Ho chiak’s version  is less oily too. You should go and try it, and you may know how the actual taste it. I would say that the taste is above normal.

Stall information:

Open daily except Sunday, from 6 am till 12 noon
