Coconut Island
Coconut Island is a local favourite. This little restaurant offers a wide variety of SMC dishes that are more geared towards the Malay palate, which means generous amounts of peanut sauce and coconut milk. Run by a lovely Malay-Chinese lady from Ipoh (expand your horizons, look it up), this restaurant always gets busy during weekday lunchtimes. Recommended dishes include the unbelievably crispy and flavourful butter shrimp (it's as good as it sounds) and the Penang flat fried rice noodles (called kway teow by locals). The restaurant also offers up some Thai food, which are quite good, but I find that it's "true" specialties are its SMC offerings.
