Penang Food: Batu Lancang Rojak

11 October 2008 361 views 7 Comments


On our way back from lunch, we received a call from one of our pregnant colleagues that she was craving to eat rojak from one particular stall. She said it was outside Lam Wah Ee hospital and she specifically requested for that.



This uncle normally parked his mini van outside Lam Wah Ee Hospital. The mini van can be easily seen but you would need to be careful of the traffic that tend to be fast if you were coming from “Gostan bridge

The fruits used were quite fresh comprising of typical ingredients like pineapple, cucumber, mango besides mengkuang, tau kua etc.

The prawn paste used was quite thick and could be quite addictive but it was advisable to take the rojak immediately as the longer you wait, the water from the fruits could actually dilute the prawn paste.

If you prefer, you can also purchase only the prawn paste from the uncle so that you can mix them later for your own fruits. The rojak costs between RM2 to RM5 depending on how big you want the portion to be.

    The one CKLam mention have to wait veryyyyyyyyyyy long! That uncle kapster too much!

    But his prawn paste and additional dried shrimp rode over the top of the sauce undeniably ranked in Rojak King in Penang.

    the one at macallum street has a very thick prawn taste; some people don’t really like it. It has been there for more than 10 years de lo. The ‘kapster’ taukeh always walks with barefoot with his trademark yellow shirt on. :)

    New customers might have doubts patronize him. Hygiene part will drive them away. The skins were around his table, his bare foot, stall outlook and situated at the road side with some waters flowing through his stall when the hawkers behind washing their stalls.

    Now I know where to get rojak with tau kua. I have been craving for that too though I’m not preggy now. LOL! I guessed my favorite one would not reappear again as the Ah Pek should be somewhere up there now. If you happen to find one with tau hoo pok, bunga kantan and a squeeze of lime juice, do inform me. I missed that flavor.
