Herbal Soup Shop — Restaurant in George Town

i visited this small gem restaurant 4 times before deciding to share my thoughts about their food. they are small, no marketing, no big crew; just a modest team of husband and wife with their handsome boy. it’s a small eating haven with less than 5 or 6 tables (when this post is written) and they have unique offerings from time to time.

they are famous for their rendang chicken rice, sambal prawn and petai (bitter bean), dumplings, herbal chicken soup and burnt cheese cake (taste like heaven). and i was lucky to try out their curry mutton. there are many other offerings that i can't eat them all in one sitting. you just can't get such great food elsewhere. even if you can, its rare. they prepare their food entirely on their own (no hired workers), ensuring the quality is top notch. because it is a small crew of husband and wife, they make everything themselves, putting their heart and soul. we are lucky to be able to still find such incredible food at an affordable price.

The herbal soup ingredients they used to cook are absolutely premium...u can already tell by the taste of it ( if u are also good at cooking n experts in herbs)...plus, the prize is way too economical...u can also get other daily different asian cuisine menus...the kopitiam normally comes out different types of menus everyday upon the delivery orders by their loyal customers..but the herbal soup, u can definitely get everyday.. it's their best trademark n i highly recommend it to all of u out there..i am suggesting the chef to come out with other fews of daily menus...Chinese chicken rice n several types of desserts, porridges, ice creams with banana splits n waffles.... absolutely delightful...i wish someday the business owners will soon manage to find a huger place to run the business in Georgetown area, as they already have too many existing loyal fans...so can able to accommodate the walk...

Have you ever had a soup so perfectly balanced in flavors that the primary ingredient seems to be love and the primary taste seems to be comfort? Maybe when you're a child and staying home sick from school, and your mother makes something lovely out of concern? This is the feeling I had from my 1st to last spoonful of the chicken herbal soup. I'm visiting Penang as a solo traveler and have been sick, leading to feeling rundown with a poor appetite, and unable to really enjoy all the fantastic food in Penang. I thought if anything, maybe chicken soup would be palatable. It was so much more than that. It was a delicious bowl of healing comfort. Feeling better this evening than I have in a week. The rice, pickled vegetables, and tea were...
