The 9 Must-Visit New Restaurants of Fall 2024 | Bon Appétit

"From a chef best known for Cantonese comfort food, this new project celebrates Malaysian and broader Southeast Asian cuisines in a bustling, checker-floored space modeled on Penang cafés. Diners can sample satay skewers, Malaysian fried chicken with nasi lemak, noodle dishes including Penang-style char kway teow stir-fried with lard, shrimp, and Chinese sausage, and lesser-seen snacks like kueh pie tee; a curated beverage list that includes sake, soju, beer, and wine will be offered to pair with the food." - ByKate Kassin

"Potted plants are set nicely against a background of exposed brick walls and industrial accents here. On top of the short à la carte menu, the Nyonya combo set built around pandan nasi lemak with your choice of toppings is especially popular. The rice is plated on a banana leaf and topped with mildly hot homemade sambal. Another speciality is Siam bihun – turmeric rice vermicelli with shredded omelette and sauces. Round out the meal with tub tim krob." - Michelin Inspector

Visited during lunch, it's quite packed with limited seating area. Limited food option as well, there's only nasi lemak, mee hoon or instant noodles. The taste is very general & nothing special. There's not enough fragrances for nasi lemak, the pandan chicken is nice, but more of Thai style than local food. The atmosphere was nice. Overall was good, but there's still space for improvement.

Fabulous Authentic penang food! Love the nasi lemak with chicken curry! Highly recommended! The signature fried bihun is yummy too! Love it with runny sunshine egg! Warm & friendly owners. The retro feel of the restaurant brings back childhood nostalgia!

Stumbled upon this place and was curious because a table left and their plates were clean. The nasi lemak with curry chicken was delicious and so well balanced. The cuttlefish was also tender and cooked perfectly. Would come back to try the bihun! Definitely worth a try.

My top 1 favorite spot in Penang! From the very warm welcome of the owner to tasting our first nyonya meals. This Michelin resto is located in a very unassuming yet pretty spot at 35@Jetty. It feels like being served a local homecooked meal. As we got here a bit late, they only had limited curry chicken left. The owner was so kind to give us a bowl of their curry soup (with potatoes). It was so good I wanted to come back again the next day lol

Worth every bit of hype, wonderful down to earth staff ready to help. We were gutted they'd run out of the curry chicken, so get here earlier for that, however there was plenty of Nasi Lemak to have anyway. Fragrant rice, chicken was cooked perfectly and the sambal was the perfect pairing, the veg pairing with onions and okra was really good too, it all balanced really well. The bihon was good too, the duo of spicy and sweet sambal was really good as well. It's well worth coming here, even if it's small inside it's worth the wait.

Small cosy shop with friendly owner. I loved how we felt welcomed from the moment we entered the shop. Owner took the liberty to explain how they are pork free and how how they source chicken from halal certified supplier. I Had the mihun and sambal prawn and their milk coffee. We also had the garlic toast, Nasi lemak and butter cheese toast. Food was great and well presented. They also took time to entertain our toddler eventhough they were busy . Nostalgic ambience with a lot of vintage decorations. Would I come again? Definitely yes.

Just had the most amazing Malaysian meal and I’m still thinking about it! Every single thing on the plate was packed with flavor the sambal had the perfect kick, the fried egg was cooked to perfection, and the rendang Melt-in-your-mouth good. Even the little sides like the crunchy anchovies and fresh veggies brought the whole dish to life. I swear, I was mentally applauding every bite. If you haven’t tried this yet, you’re seriously missing out!

Taste mediocre for Penangite. Nasi Lemak rice texture needs improvement, not so much fragrance. However the accompanying dishes such as curry chicken, ikan bilis and peanuts are quite nice. Weird thing to note for set of eggs with kaya toast, they actually put the egg on the bread, and to separate them you need to pay individually for both items, which cost more lol.
