Awesome Char Koay Teow
About
Awesome Char Koay Teow serves Penang from its home at 99 Jalan Lembah Permai Tanjung Bungah, 11200 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia. The address places the venue in Tanjung Bungah, a stretch of Penang's northern coast between George Town and Batu Ferringhi. Diners heading to the island's resort belt pass through this area, and the venue sits within reach of Gurney Drive, Penang Hill and Balik Pulau.
A 4.8 out of 5 average from 124 reviews marks Awesome Char Koay Teow as one of Penang's more warmly received restaurants. Reaching it from the main resorts is straightforward: Batu Ferringhi, Teluk Bahang and Tanjung Bungah lie along the same coastal road, while George Town and the Georgetown Heritage core sit to the east. Gurney Drive is a short drive away for anyone staying on the city side of the island.
The venue occupies a spot on Penang's northern shoreline, where the island's beaches and hills meet the strait. Motorbikes, taxis and rental cars are the usual ways to get around Malaysian islands, and they make the run from George Town to Tanjung Bungah simple.
Penang's equatorial climate keeps the island warm and humid, with rain falling throughout the year. Malaysian cooking leans on rice and noodles, flavoured with sambal, coconut milk and belacan shrimp paste, and the island's Chinese, Indian and Malay kitchens all contribute to that mix. Visitors moving between George Town, Batu Ferringhi and Teluk Bahang will find the venue on the coastal route.
