We, Malaysians, take pride in our delicious food. The only problem is, for the night owls out there, finding good food to feast on after hours might be a little bit of a challenge as not many restaurants stay open after a certain time – unless you’re in KL of course. For those of you who live in Penang specifically, here is our list of delicious Penang supper spots for night owls to feast on that is guaranteed to satisfy your cravings.
Duck Rice
Sometimes the late-night cravings hit you hard, and you would want something that contains just enough fat and just enough flavour. If that’s the kind of late-night cravings you usually have, make your way to Air Itam Wet Market and get a taste of this Duck Rice that is made with lean duck meat, light soy sauce and some bean curd. We mean, with this kind of meal why would you even want to go to sleep early.

The best part is, their price is affordable, and everything served there is fresh even after hours.
