Kuantan Road Market
About
On Penang, Kuantan Road Market trades at 25, Jalan Kuantan, George Town, 10150 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia, a marketplace address in the island capital.
The market draws its custom from the surrounding George Town streets, where Jalan Kuantan runs through the city's grid. First-time visitors should expect a working market setting rather than a polished retail hall. A 3.9 out of 5 average across 203 reviews reflects a steady flow of everyday shoppers. George Town, Batu Ferringhi, Gurney Drive, Penang Hill, Balik Pulau, Tanjung Bungah, Teluk Bahang and Georgetown Heritage all lie within Penang's compact road network, so the market is reachable from the resort strip at Batu Ferringhi and the northern beaches by car or taxi.
Jalan Kuantan sits within George Town's street pattern, which puts the market close to the heritage core of the city.
Rice and noodles are staples in Malaysia, flavoured with sambal, coconut milk and belacan shrimp paste, and on Malaysian islands motorbikes, taxis and rental cars are the usual ways to get around.
