One thing that I always noticed whenever I drive pass by Him Heang outlet (along Burmah Road) is there are lotsa outstation cars parked on the roadside of the outlet (cos lack of parking lot), especially cars from KL with the W number plates. I can see some of them even buy up to 8 to 10 boxes of
Tau Sar Pneah.
Wah.. spend almost RM100 on biscuits? Really so nice meh? Why the craze? Dunno lah.. might be cos I'm staying in Penang, so I won't craze for this tau sar pneah aka Tambun Biscuit so much, and I guess the same goes to most Penangites too. There are other biscuits available as well such as
Beh Teh Saw, Phong Pneah and Hneah Pneah.
Him Heang &
Ghee Hiang are the more famous outlet in Penang and of course there are several other outlets as well. Besides the non halal tau sar pneah (with lard), there are healthier version of tau sar pneah (vegetarian oil) as well as halal tau sar pneah (but from other company).
Him Heang Tau Sar PneahI prefer the
Sheng Hiang tau sar pneah instead cos it comes in different flavour -
original, spicy shrimp hay bee, cappucino, orange, pineapple, durian, green tea, yam, pandan, nutmeg, corn, mango, grape. My favourite is
cappucino & spicy shrimp ;)

wait a minute!
chen have beautiful photo compilation for the tau sar pneah i noticed!!
good job sotong!! love it!
angel,
angeliu also like tau sar pneah? :P
monday blues ah?
Sheng Hiang is located in New Lane. But they don't produce all the flavour at one time; if not mistaken, only certain flavour on certain days..
If u balik kampung, must call me.. :D We can go makan-makan.
Yeah, the vegetarian tau sar pneah is only produced by other companies :) Him Heang tau sar pneah tastes better than Ghee Hiang. When I passed by Ghee Hiang outlet, I don't see many cars there :P
carcar,
attempt to make the readers having knotted tongue when trying to read the word. LOL (jahatnya I)
dunno from where ah? u go korek-korek to investigate? okie? Sotong must help Sotong :D
Nowadays semua brand pun ada...
carcar,
aiks.. wait a minute too..
Really Sotong Mind think alike..
Forget to reply your last comment..
TQ TQ :)
u can do the trick also with Picasa2 ;)
Ya, okay la, i quite like but not crazy abt it tho...
Alamak, one day one flavour nia? U think they got website for me to check out what flavour on wat day ah? Then i can ask someone to buy the liulian wan 4 me :D
Ya ya, of cos i'll let u know if i balik... but DYK tat i stay at the mainland wan? :P I know how the "island" ppl think that the mainland very boring... tiok bo??
angel,
not to the extend of one flavour a day lah.. just that they don't produce all the flavour at one time :P I don't think they have website lah.. If I passed by there next time, I can check out for u :)
Yeah, I know u stay at mainland (U told me previously & I still remember lah). Tell u something, I only know how to get around in the island, blur with mainland, kekekee... Wa mm si Penang lang lah, so I won't think mainland lang is boring loh.
I like tau sar pneah!! but sometimes if eat too much, feel a bit jai oredi. but if compare with heong peng, I like the sticky gooey one much better!
angel: liuliu monday indeed! so the buzzzzzyyyyyy!!
i never noticed this brand wan... too many flavours make the taste buds confused! anyway me still prefer the original tau sar pneah!
Whoaaaaa..... must try it someday!!! :D
*drool* that food is heaven...
Waaa!! Ho cheang weh! Chun hai lau hau siew. Dunno why, but lately, the times I have been to Penang, everyone wants those pheang too! It's like some sort of drug! Personally, I like them too, but not to the extent of asking someone to buy them for me!! Why ah? The reasons must be very interesting to know.. I am so curious..
may,
kekkeke, remember? Must eat in moderation? ;) Cannot sapu too much. Everything if sapu too much also not nice liao :P
Ooooh.. u like Heong Peng? we call that as Hneah Pneah in Hokkien.
hehhe.. the black sticky gooey interior :P Ghee Hiang's serve better Heong Peng. I presume u will buy some back home if u come to Penang? ;)
kesian, so busy ah? I do shoulder massage for u, how? I always do shoulder massage for my colleagues FOC :P
domestic goddess,
I just discover this brand one year plus ago.. I love the cappucino flavour (although I'm not a coffee person).
Selba,
u should :D
Fred,
It is nice but since it's easily available here, so I don't really fancy it loh..(human nature.. won't appreciate things that are available in excess)kekkee...
LB,
errr... now I notice there's something "wrong" with your cantonese as well :P must polish your cantonese liao...
Most outsiders or tourists who come to Penang will buy this product..
Why ah? I also dunno.. let u investigate. (I eat too much sotong (cuttlefish kangkung) today, so a bit blur blur..)
Picasa 2 ROCKS!! Yeah!
Him Heang tau sar pneah is nice, but quite expensive... and also have to Q long long only can get.
Somemore Chia Chui Lor got a lot of cars, so hard to get parking. Hehehe...
I like gud food
Normalli ppl buy back for mi la so dun realli care the brand when it's delicious
But I find vege 1 a bit dull... still the original is better
yumyumyum
Oi! I know my cantonese is teruk, but those few words there can't have been that bad, could it?!!! LOL sot sot sot.. Aiyoh, now gotta correct my cantonese lagi.. A sotong's job is never done..
day dreamer,
Tell u lah one simple way to get Him Heang tau sar pneah & no need to queue.. buy in Chowrasta Market (but slightly more expensive loh than to get from Him Heang outlet). The stock is fresh too, but no queue, kekke :D
zero impact,
if people buy for u, then u cannot complaint lah, kakkakak :P
the sinful lard do make some difference :P tat's the secret ;)
lb,
akakkak.. cos the way u put make it sounds weird loh.. as well as the pronouncation :P So reading that few words I know liao.
Sotong is always busy with sotong job. Sotsot :D U need tuition in Cantonese as well :P
LOL, I just read back my cantonese, and I couldn't understand it either...
just had Him Heang last friday. very nice, flaky crust, not too oily & sweet.
lb,
so u better speak english then :P
u made me more blur now..
okie, time to zzz..
Sotong Rehat now.. :P
slurp
Him Heang available in Singapore too? That's cool :)
Hneah Pneah... that's such a tongue twister leh! I think I'll stick to heong peng. my brother who goes up north for biz once in awhile would come back with a few boxes and packets of the Heong biscuits... waaaa, sapu as much as I can liao!
Doc, it's just that the Italian sotong's spelling sounded a bit too...errmmm... engrish cum italiannies? Tats why sounded weird liuliu :D
ahmay, *sigh* so liu the monday... but thank god it's gone away! but tomolo another liuliu day for me :((
Uik ah may! U sneaked in on top of moi :P

I bought the durian flavoured tau sar pneah when I balik kampung time in the past(as from the picture) but I can't remember the taste liao. Never tried the nutmeg flavour :)
slurp,
I see... then must be one of your colleagues went to Penang & got the tau sar pneah there. So u manage to savour the last piece ;) Good loh.. or else u only see the empty boxes & that would really be "aiyak" D

wilson,
Sure, no problem :)
I hope I will remember that :P
hmmmmm dont really like it cos it is abit salty + sweet. the cappucino flavour is better. =)
Nononono... nothing like that! How I know maybe DoktorDoktor sekalian have found new use for phau somm?
Yes or not? ;)
red sponge,
hahha.. u are the second person I know of who doesn't fancy tau sar pneah :)
I prefer the hay bee & cappucino flavour too..
plink,
I guess that should come under Chinese medicine leh.. :P
SA,

Eh, I thought wester medicine also got researching herbal remedy?
I wonder if durian got medical use also....
hahaha i;m so glad i saw this post before i left for penang hahaha... yeah i was there yday for a short visit. i got hold some of these biscuits on my way to makan but hvnt eat them yet
plink,
Well, well.. unless those are well established research, else I won’t know about it too :)
Too many things to read up :D
Durian ah? Hehehhe…
AFAIK from medical point of view, durian is not recommended LOL
(unless u want high calories diet )
babekl,
Hahaha... how many boxes u buy? ;)
Btw, any idea what happened to Sheng Hiang? They closed down or moved. I'm also a fan of the flavoured choices.
