Char Koay Kak (Fried Rice Cake) and Oh Chien (Fried Oyster Omelette) at Goodall Cafe

Goodall Cafe, or locally known as "Ban Ho", is one of the most prominent hawker havens in Penang. Located opposite Penang Chinese Girls' High School, Goodall Cafe offers a wide variety of iconic Penang hawker delights such as Char Koay Teow, Laksa, and Curry Mee. In this post, KCChiak will be introducing his favourite stall at the hawker centre - the Char Koay Kak / Oh Chien stall.

CHAR KOAY KAK / OH CHIEN STALL AT GOODALL CAFE


KCChiak is a huge fan of the Char Koay Kak here! Imbued with enough "wok hei" (essence imparted by the wok), the rice cake dish is stir-fried with eggs, crunchy beansprouts, and fragrant Chinese chives. There's also a hint of preserved turnip that elevates the flavour of the rice cakes without compromising the overall saltiness of the dish. KCChiak also fancies the slightly firmer and chewier texture of the rice cake cubes here.

Besides Char Koay Kak, the stall serves pretty decent Oh Chien. The fried oyster omelette consists of a generous portion of succulent oysters and is stir-fried with a starchy egg mixture. The dish is then garnished with some aromatic coriander leaves and served with garlic chilli sauce. In terms of texture, the oh chien here leans more towards the softer and stickier side.
