Good sign: Family-run eatery continues to be family-run even after it's famous.

Ohh good observation! Too often restaurants cash out to investors after becoming famous and the quality just dips like nobody's business...

And chicken rice too.

Usually I'd be quite skeptical of restaurants that try to do too much but this one looks good, especially their signature pork chop rice.

Yup a good way to see if they've cashed out is if they suddenly opened many outlets in a short period of time. The food becomes too mass-produced and the quality drops.

This roadside stall in Penang can make about S$1,000+ per day selling goreng pisang?

In Chinese and Malay only, sorry no Eng subtitles.

Looks like the trick to making good goreng pisang is to cut into thin slices?

Maybe? Just like the other video posted a while ago of another Malaysian goreng pisang shop that sliced the bananas into finger-like shapes.

Not a goreng pisang connoisseur but all the ones I see here are fried whole.
