猪肠粉 From Different Places
Why it call 猪肠粉? i never see Pig Intestines inside any of the 猪肠粉 i eat before although I do not eat Pig Intestines. May be the traditional 猪肠粉 appearance look like Pig Intestines. The 1st 猪肠粉 will be the Famous Teluk Intan (安顺) 猪肠粉 which have 2 type: The 1st type is the original one which uses turnip and the 2nd type is using Small Dried Prawn. The local told me that the famous shop selling this猪肠粉 is called Liew Kee (Ah Lek).

The Next 猪肠粉 that we introduce is the Penang 猪肠粉. This appearance look exactly the same as the traditional 猪肠粉 just the sauce use is different. It has the combination of Sweet Sauce, Peanut Butter Sauce and Chili Sauce. At 1st everyone heard this combination sound very weird and do not feel like tasting it. But when they try the 猪肠粉 that I order they immediately order 2 extra plates of 猪肠粉 although they individually have their own food to eat. According to the coffee shop owner, there is only 2 store that sell such unique 猪肠粉 in penang and it located at Green Lane and Farlim Business Park.
The last 猪肠粉 that I’ll introduce is the Ipoh 猪肠粉. Whenever u go ipoh and try the 猪肠粉 they will ask you what sauce you would like. It has traditional Chili Sauce or Sweet Sauce and another type is Mushroom Sauce. This is something different and it still tasty with the flavor of the mushroom. The place I try this 猪肠粉 is at City Center of Ipoh inside the Coffee Shop Name Hua Nam.
