The 17 Best Restaurants in George Town, Malaysia | Eater
"In a city with very, very good food, Tek Sen just might hold the title of the best restaurant in town. Dating back to 1965, the menu is a virtual crash-course in Penang-style Chinese and Baba-Nyonya (a mix of indigenous and Chinese cooking styles and ingredients) dishes. You can’t really go wrong here, but favorites include the double-cooked roast pork with chili padi, stir-fried sweet potato leaves with sambal belecan (fermented shrimp paste) and shrimp, and assam pedas, a tart soup with stingray. Be sure to order a glass of the the house-made drink made from nutmeg syrup. Open for lunch and dinner, closed Tuesdays; be prepared to queue. [$$ - $$$]" - Austin Bush
