In Penang there is ineed plenty of street food that you can find. As a Penang Kia, my cousin share with me this place as one of his favourite Classic Nyonya Moh Teng Pheow Nyonya Koay in Penang. He would always buy it whenever he come back to Penang during Chinese New Year. He rated it as one of the best Classic Nyonya Kuih in Penang.
I only discover this 4 years ago and noob die me, but it is actually quite hidden. Also quite well known now to many tourist. This place had been operating since 1933 and I certainly believe this would be the 3rd generation holding the helm for this place.
The kuih are made fresh every day. There are many classic types of nyonya kuih available with the likes like:
-
- Angku kuih
- Kaya Kuih
- Huat Kuih
- Kuih Jaging (corn)
- Kuih Kacang Merah (red bean)
- Kuih KetayapÂ
- Kuih Kosui
- Kuih Lapis
- Kuih Bingka Ubi
- Kuih Talam
- Kuih Seri Muka
- Onde – Onde
- Kuih Salat
- Kuih bugis
- Rempah Udang
Many others also. easily more than 25 types available daily. Happy hunting.
Price certainly is not cheap as they are higher priced and also smaller portion. For the taste itself I love it. Classic, fragrant and filled with flavoures.
If you are looking for one of the best Nyoya Kuih in Penang, this is one of the place to look for.

Thanks bro for this sharing.
I will visit to Georgetown this December and my wife is craving for these Nyonya kuih.
Sometimes kind of hard to know the details, as too many information – some good some not really.
Memang old school, nice.
