[Penang] Char Kway Teow Showdown

I can’t find authentic-tasting CKT once I get out of the island - and especially not in Ipoh (less than 100 miles away) or Kuala Lumpur (210 miles). Somehow, the different dialect group’s preferences (Cantonese in both Ipoh & KL) will get in the way, and you end up with a totally different rendition of the CKT which resembled more closely the fried flat rice noodles one finds in Hong Kong.
