Ayu Mee Udang (Mee Udang Cantik), Teluk Kumbar, Penang

Ayu Mee Udang (map), also called Mee Udang Cantik, is a Malay stall specializing in Mee Udang. It is located in the village in Teluk Kumbar, on the way to Gertak Sanggul. The stall serves Mee Udang during lunch as well as dinner. In addition, it also serves Bubur Kacang as dessert.
There are a number of mee udang stalls in Teluk Kumbar. This one is one of my favourites because it is cleaner than the others (which often have flies flying all over the place). You can order the fried noodles (mee udang goreng) or the soup noodles (mee udang rebus). Both are equally tasty. Also available is fried rice (nasi udang goreng) With the big prawns, each plate costs RM12. It is certainly not the cheapest meal in town.
How to get there
Turn off the main road (Route 6) to the road that goes to Gertak Sanggul (State Route P224). Look out for the junction to your right. Turn in, and follow the road until you arrive at Mee Udang Cantik, located on the right side. See map here.
