"As for their murtabak, 10 out of 10 Penangites will tell you, it’s one of the favourites here in George Town."
"The quintessential signature dish at Hameediyah- Chicken Murtabak (Rm 5 each); we were delighted to know that Hameediyah is still putting effort in preserving the traditional way of cooking Murtabak."
"Hameediyah is my go-to place for "murtabaks", the delicious meat-filled Tamil-Muslim savoury pancakes, when I'm in Penang - still the best I have tasted anywhere in Singapore or Malaysia."
"The main reason to come here is for their signature Murtabak. Murtabak is basically a spicy meat indian style pancake which is eaten with curry and pickled red onions."
"My must-order - murtabak kambing! It never disappoints."
"Hameediyah preserves the authentic way of preparing their murtabak. They stuff a roti-canai like in the middle of the murtabak that gives the extra thickness and fullness and chewy taste."
"The country’s best murtabak."

"I’ve been going to Hameediyah, every time I visit Penang, since my first time there in 1987. Internet favourite is the chicken martabak. The last time I was there at introduced it to my daughter (14yrs) and she thought it was delicious. I love the fact that it hasn’t changed. It was the best thing I had ever eaten in 1987 and to this day it is still the thing I instantly think about if asked to name my favourite food. Sorry that my pic is of a half eaten dish - it’s impossible not to start eating before the thought of even taking a pic enters your brain. It’s that good 🤤"
