Description

Morning in Penang is the right time for street eats in old George Town. Forget the hotel's uninspiring breakfast buffet and join our daily movable feast.
When it comes to food, the residents of Penang have it good. There’s few places which measure up to George Town’s culinary prowess. It might not be as visited as Bangkok or Singapore, but those who cross the Penang Strait are treated to some serious feasting. There’s just nowhere like it. Each morning the street vendors and shophouses burst into breakfast action simmering, frying and steaming some of George Town’s best eats.

This tasty tapestry of flavour stems from over a century of Malay, Indian and Southern Chinese influence. And the best time to see it in all its simmering glory? Morning. Forget your hotel buffet. Over four hours we’ll take a deep dive into Penang’s food scene mopping up 15+ tastings around old George Town.

We don’t want to spoil all the fun, but some salivate-inducing highlights including flaky ghee-slathered rotis with egg and cheese, smoky stir-fried char koay kak Chinese radish cake, fruity Penang-style laksa and some of the island’s best dim sum among more than a dozen more dishes. Along the way, discover the history and culture of Penang’s food expertly led by a knowledgeable host.
