Thoughts: Some say that the Penang Road Famous TeoChew Chendul is a Chendul Specialist that provides the best quality of chendul in Malaysia; arriving to the stall at 10am and I don't see a queue yet. With super high expectations but disappointed as I dig in to the bowl of Chendul and fail to find anything special in it; maybe one has to queue for an hour to get the Chendul that it will taste better!
I found a seat inside Joo Hooi Cafe to savor the famous Chendul; disappointed and maybe its just me and I ordered a mix of 菜糕 Cai Kuih which somehow I enjoyed more than the famous Chendul. Leaving the location 30 minutes later, and I see the queue at the Chendul stall starts forming. Usually, after 11am, you will find a long queue of tourist to sample this famous Teowchew Chendul. 
Still, maybe its really just me not approving the famous Chendul; but I think the over 80+years stall history worth some mentioning here. The founder, Mr Tan Teik Fuang learned making and began selling Chendul at Penang Road back in 1936; believing that his business will help make a living for his family, After over 40 years and by the year 1977, Tan Teik Fuang's sixth son, Tan Chong Kim fully took charge of improving their business; you can even the a huge mural of Tan Chong Kim above the Chendul stall on the wall of Joo Hooi Cafe!
