Medan Selera Padang Brown, a famous local food court in Penang, offers an authentic Malaysian street food experience. Located at the intersection of Jalan Dato Keramat and Jalan Perak, it’s a popular spot for both locals and tourists. Here, you’ll find a wide range of Penang’s signature dishes and local favorites, from char koay teow and pasembur to satay and laksa. The stalls are divided into two sections—Malay and Chinese vendors—offering a blend of flavors that represents Penang’s diverse food culture. The open-air setting, with communal seating under large umbrellas, adds to the casual, lively atmosphere.
Dishes are freshly prepared at each stall, with prices ranging from RM5 to RM20, depending on what you order. Padang Brown is ideal for budget-conscious visitors who want a taste of Penang’s hawker food and local favorites in a relaxed, local environment. Most stalls operate until late evening, making it a great place for dinner or late-night cravings.
