Penang is regarded as one of the great street-food destinations of the world, and Gurney Drive is its most famous hawker centre, a seafront food court where dozens of stalls serve the islands signature dishes. Diners feast on char kway teow, Penang laksa, rojak, satay and more at communal tables by the sea. Sampling the range of Chinese, Malay and Indian specialities here is an essential and delicious Penang experience.
