8 Must-Eats @ Lebuh Kimberley, Penang
2014-06-06
* Some of the establishments / dishes below are not halal. Penang island is mostly associated as a food haven that attracts travelling hardcore foodies and tourists in search of good street food. Among those places that effortlessly pull in the crowd would be the food street of Lebuh Kimberley in George Town. Every day from 4 p.m. onwards, the crossroads where Lebuh Kimberley intersects with Jalan Sungai Ujong and Lebuh Cintra comes alive with the opening of hawker stalls ready to cook and serve for the night. There are several coffee shops and a good number of hawker stalls in the street that one would have to make few trips to be able to enjoy all the food there. If you are, however, hard-pressed for time, here are eight stalls that are just nice for a quick stop to savour some of the best foods on the island.
