Tim Sum at Nibong Tebal, Penang (Mainland) - Perak Border

Kee Teik Jai Tim Sum is Practically the only choice for Yum Cha Style Tim Sum in Southen Nibong Tebal Area, its located practically right on the Border of Penang and Perak.  While it may be the only place for Tim Sum, the food here is tasty and they are quite innovative as well.  One of their specialty is what i would describe as a Oat coated Sandwich with Pandan Kaya Filling.      

Location is a long a row of shop houses,  (see map for coordinates, in a corner shop lot,  along the federal road heading south from Nibong Tebal.  This will be a good stop for early morning travelers seeking a more subtensial bite.
