This Hidden Penang Laksa Spot Earned Michelin Recognition

Tucked away near Armenian Street in George Town, Penang, My Own Cafe is the kind of place you could easily walk past — but locals know it as one of the city’s most iconic Assam Laksa spots. Recently recognized with a Michelin Bib Gourmand, this humble family-run cafe serves Penang Assam Laksa packed with bold tamarind flavors, mackerel broth, fresh herbs, mint, and pineapple. Simple, comforting, and deeply authentic. I arrived early before the crowds, and the quiet atmosphere made the experience feel even more special. 📍 My Own Cafe 2 Cannon Street, Georgetown, 10200 George Town, Penang, Malaysia Opening Hours: 10AM–4PM (Mon–Tues, Thurs–Sun) Closed Wednesdays If you enjoy cinematic food documentaries, authentic local experiences, and slow travel videos, don’t forget to like and subscribe for more stories from around the world. #Penang #AssamLaksa #MichelinGuide #GeorgeTown #MalaysiaFood #PenangFood #StreetFood #FoodDocumentary #CinematicTravel #Laksa
