Foodie's Best in Penang List - Ah Piu Duck Rice

Ah Piu Duck Rice located at Star Hotel, junction of Jalan Cheong Fatt Tse and Carnavon Street.  This coffee shop was higlighted in the previous Hokkien Mee post - check out Foodie's Best in Penang List - Hokkien mee, ambience and Kopi O rating are all there.
Food rating           :    5 stars
Value for money   :    3.5 / 5.0 stars ( a little more than the market rate, but worth it  - good stuff don't come
                                                                                                cheap, right ? )

Duck rice  -  Lunch Only

Home roast pork, something you have to order as a side dish

                                             Don't forget the home made sauces as well

Soup is complimentary, taste awesome if you are not too early (cause the lady boss keeps adding the duck bones as it boils),  however, if you arrive late, there may be no more soup for you ....

Foodie's recommendation  :   Order half a duck, additional roast pork, add sauce and drink the complimentary soup (serves 4), if can't finish - ta pao

And this is where the Kopi O magic happens ...
Good ambience
Good coffee
Good food
Gets a little crowded during lunch time though




'International tek chia' drink (picture below) pormoted by the old man (above) ... if you are in marketing or sales, you may learn a trick or two from him, really push sales, can be irritating but extremely effective, cause if you look around, almost every table orders the drink, as for me, I stick to my kopi O


Don't forget to try the Hokkien Mee in the morning,
Also highly recommended by Foodie ...

Foodie's Best In Penang List - Hokkien Mee


Best In Penang Hokkien Mee

Food Rating         :     5/5 stars
Kopi O Rating      :    5/5 stars
Value for Money  :     5/5 stars
Ambience            :     Excellent - while waiting for your noodle, enjoy the kopi o, observing the coffee man promoting his 'international tek chia', grumpy old man getting his orders out ... never wrong, washing the bowls as there are no more bowls to serve to noodle, just so Penang ... truly a money can't buy moment


Ever heard of Star Hotel ?  Neither have I .  I had to ask the Kopi Shop tau ke what the name of this shop is.  Well, Star Hotel has not one but 2 of Foodie's Best In Penang List.

Hokkien Mee in the morning, Roast Duck Rice in the afternoon - keep reading roast duck rice will be featured in the following post.

This stall is situated at the junction of Carnavan Street and Jalan Cheong Fatt Tse. 
Only in the morning.  Be there early cause by 10.30am no more soup ...



Chef at Work

You can add 'little prawns', meat, intestines, spare parts, pork knuckle anything you see ...

Clean old man, if you come at 12 noon you will catch him cleaning the sides of his stall


Kopi O is very good at 90 cents

I come here for my breakfast fix at least once or twice per week without fail

Foodie's Suggestion - Hokkien Mee add Small Prawn (Hay Kia) RM3.50 plus kopi O 90 cents
RM 4.40 for a memorable satisfying breakfast




Kopi taukeh at work


Any street food reccommended by Foodie on the Best In Penang List must be tried :-) cause we only put the best of the best on 'The Best List' !

I am wondering if this 'ah pek' stops selling will there be any other stall as authentic and as delicious as his ... see you soon for breakfast at the Best Hokkien Mee in Penang.
