Halal FriendlyAbout
A household name in Penang's culinary scene since 1978 — Hameed 'Pata' Special Mee is located at the Kota Selera food court right next to Fort Cornwallis on the Esplanade in George Town. Now run by second-generation cook Shahul Hameed, the stall is famous for its Mee Sotong Special — a Penang-exclusive variant of mee goreng mamak, heaped with a fiery squid sambal that elevates a classic hawker dish into something extraordinary. The fried noodles are wok-fried with garlic, onion, prawn, and vegetables, then generously topped with spicy squid gravy. Open Monday to Saturday 11:30am–8pm. Halal. A pilgrimage stop for mee sotong lovers visiting Penang. Reviews mention pasembur, sambal sotong, special ais kacang and squid noodles.
