Stall No. 30 at Batu Lanchang Food Court where the Mee Goreng Duck Egg is made fresh
I bet you’ve never heard about Mee Goreng Duck Egg.
Time to let you in on an insider tip about the mee goreng at Batu Lanchang Food Court.
It’s the kind of local favourite people whisper about, rave over, and happily queue for.
Anyone who knows Penang has had a plate before.
I don’t remember my first plate, but it was probably back when the brothers’ parents were still running the stall.
If you’re serious about Penang street food, this is the mee goreng you need to try at least once.
Away from George Town, mee goreng duck egg isn’t just food.
It’s part of daily life for the people in the Batu Lanchang community.
The story goes back to 1991, when En. Mohd Sarif and his wife first fired up the wok.
Their mee goreng pulled in regulars long before anyone talked about “food hunts” online.
Now their sons, Syafiq and Khalil, keep the heat steady and the flavours honest.
Ask anyone around here and they’ll tell you the same thing.
They’ve been eating this mee goreng for as long as they can remember.
There’s almost always a line at Stall No. 30, and nobody minds.
Walk into Batu Lanchang Food Court and the pull hits you fast.
The food court moves with people who know exactly what they came for.
It’s lively every day, and finding a seat often means sharing a table with a stranger.
That’s part of the charm.
The wok hisses, plates knock together, and you know you’re in the right place.
What You Can Order

Taste of Mee Goreng Duck Egg
Red noodles coated in sweet spicy gravy from the Mee Goreng Duck Egg plate
My family stands by Hameed Pata Mee Sotong, but sometimes I’m too lazy to drive to George Town.
Stall No. 30 is convenient, and if there’s not too long a queue, I grab a takeaway pack.
The noodles have a firm bite, coated in a tomato-rich gravy that brings heat and real flavour.
Soy and shrimp paste give it depth, and the smoky finish from the wok shows the cook knows his craft.
The noodles soak up a sweet-spicy sauce that clings to every strand, while the toppings add character with their mix of crunch and softness.
You can always go for the special with extra sotong and a duck egg.
The duck egg melts into the gravy, giving the dish a creamy, fuller finish that balances the sweetness.
One more squeeze of lime lifts the whole thing and leaves you reaching for another forkful.
Fair Prices
