Tho Yuen

Good place for eating penang local and traditional food, such as Char Kwe Tiao, Fried Rice and Vermicelli. If you are coming earlier in the morning you can still get the various of dimsum. Good price also for Michelin restaurant. Located in the Campbell Street, George Town, Penang.

Disappointed with their mooncake. They had failed the quality control on their moon cake. Both the egg yolks of the Lotus Paste Mooncake and ShangHai Mooncake were not at the centre of the mooncake, which mean half of the mooncake has zero egg yolk and the other half has the whole egg yolk. The white lotus paste was slightly too sweet for us but good thing is it was oily and smooth in texture.

This is a popular dim sum place in the morning. We are not hungry hence ordered Yin Yeong 鸳鸯, fish ball dumpling soup and egg tart. The mixed noodle is good, 夠火喉。Egg Tart has dried and thick crust with space ship oval shape, taste is underwhelming.

Tasty Chinese noodley goodness now with high-powered air-conditioning!

Handmade fish balls and dumplings and grumpy staff squeezing between tables for the full Chinese experience.

Get a pot of Chinese tea and top it up endlessly on your own, and polish off all that good food with moon cake. They'll even cut it up for you.

Portion size is decent and pricing is most reasonable. Parking is tough since it's right smack in the middle of George Town.

This was an excellent place to have breakfast for little money. They have a wide variety of Dim sum to choose from and I had a great time selecting different ones to try.

My wife got a rice porridge soup that she really enjoyed. The staff was friendly and explained everything to us neophytes if Chinese cuisine.

So why the low rating?
Because I almost got food poisoning.

At their suggestion I got a noodle dish with chicken in it and when it came the chicken wasn't fully cooked. I explained to them that I couldn't eat anymore after discovering this but they still charged me for the food

Mistakes happen, I understand. But why should I pay for your mistake? Almost all the food was still in the plate because once I uncovered that piece of uncooked meat I lost my appetite completely.

If not for the partially cooked meat and poor handling of the situation, I would have easily given them 4s & 5s across the board.

Great local breakfast that has dim sum but I would recommend you skip that. Order the different ala cart noodle and soup dishes and you won’t regret it.

They have upgraded to a fully air conditioned restaurant and it’s expected to wait during lunch time especially on the weekend. The wait time varies from time to time depending on how busy is their business. But the food they served is definitely worth the wait. All their stir fried noodles, rice, hor fun are full of 'wok hei' which is hard to find in Penang nowadays and their steamed white chicken are definitely one of my favorite. Other than that if you are lucky you might be able to see some egg cake left on the counter during lunch time. They do have a menu on what they are serving so be sure to ask for it if you need more choices.
