Mornings at Astaka Taman Tun Sardon is a foodie’s dream.
There are so many stalls dishing out so many scrumptious food for breakfast that it’s a shame this place is not as well patronised as some of the famous outlets in town. I guess it’s location can be challenging to some; but if you can spare the time Astaka Taman Tun Sardon is really worth the effort.

Now if you’ve missed the morning session (my post on that is next!), fret not as Sulaiman chapati would keep you happily satiated for tea time. Besides Sulaiman, other options includes 4-5 stalls along the outer ring of food court selling fried spring rolls (popia goreng), fried snacks such as fishballs, etc as well as beverages stalls hawking soya bean and cincau.

But it was Sulaiman’s chapati that drew the crowd.

From a simple hawker stall back when it started in 1992, Sany Char Kuey Teow is now a proper eatery with an open kitchen and its own floor space.
They have a big signboard up, but since it isn’t exactly a brick and mortar restaurant or outlet your best landmark is the Penang Snake Temple in Bayan Lepas.
It is an open air, roofed eatery just a few steps away.
