Chia Yean Cafe

I first came here with kk's friend who came to Penang for holiday. David brought us here and we ate happily as the food is nice and the price is reasonable. It is situated just opposite the Penang Terminal Bus. Chea Yean Cafe offers Chu-Char in the evening. Nothing special, just a simple and fulfilling dinner. The portion is just nice for 3. This time we came here with Sin Yin.























We ordered Prawn Mantis fried with dried chili.


















'Tie Pan Tou Fu' (Taufu in pan).


















And vegetable.


















The total bill for 3 person costs RM28.60. Then off we go rubbing our tummy..

i know this place. the price u quoted seems reasonable. there r Indian Muslim stalls near this shop if i am not mistaken. when the mamak saw me taking pics, he and his assistant were so happy to let me take pics of his nasi lemak n them but I forgot to put in my memory card. left it in Ocean View where I was staying for my holiday :(
