Wasn't it called "tua pan koay teow" - I think translated to mean "wide type" of koay teow to the Penangites. The KL version of Wah Tan Hor (with smaller width of the noodle) somehow does not taste the same - don't know if it is due to the noodle of some other secret ingredient. I yearn for the Penang version but have not managed to recreate it - I use mainly chicken (white meat) and not pork and I also did not use fish sauce. By the way, what is "Bay scallops"? I did not remember if in the koay teow back home. And yes, "ta-pau" char hor fun for the prospective in-law seems to be a ritual. I did it too when dating my gf (now wife) so many years back.

Probably is made by sambal belacan. That’s it, the red pasty hot sauce (looks like the kind in your picture). Probably is made by sambal belacan.
