Hameediyah has been serving gourmets for more than ten years and is regarded as one of the top Nasi Kandar restaurants in Penang. Since 1907, the restaurant has been producing mouthwatering curries using recipes that have been handed down through the generations. The owner mandates that all herbs be freshly ground, and all chefs are expected to adhere to the appropriate methods and recipes.

In addition to the made-to-order items on the menu, the restaurant often offers 35 different types of curries, with Beef Rendang, Chicken Kapitan, and Ayam Bawang being some of the more well-known choices. One of the main factors that allowed the restaurant to endure the test of time is effective quality control.

The restaurant has over the years catered to customers from all walks of life (both locals and foreigners) and acted as a venue for both informal meals and any family gatherings.

Aside from the truly friendly service—the staff know their regulars and are usually eager for a chat—, the restaurant offers a wide range of delectable options.

Highlights on the menu include enormous prawns, spicy crab, lamb shank, curry fish head, and beef rendang—all of which are served elegantly over rice. A standout dish is the Beef Rendang, which features complex tastes. If you must know, there is also a sizable selection of vegetarian options.
