Everything about Food and Wine
Auntie Gaik Lean's Old School Eatery
Auntie Gaik Lean's Old School Eatery , the pride of Penang, holds the honour of being the only Michelin-starred Peranakan restaurant in the city, two years running!
Katong Delights
There is an unassuming corner in the Opera Estate that houses a hidden gem with a remarkable culinary heritage. A quiet alley lined with shophouses opens up to an enchanting enclave known as "Katong Delights."
Walking into Katong Delights is less like stepping into a restaurant and more akin to a journey back in time, reminiscent of dining in a dear friend's house in the 70s or 80s. This is not a nostalgia gimmick, but a genuine homage to a simpler, yet richly flavoured past.
The legacy of Katong Delights traces back to Alan Lau and his sisters, who once ran the Mayflower Cantonese Restaurant. These seasoned restaurateurs have taken their passion for cooking and hospitality, blending it seamlessly with a sense of homely nostalgia.
The restaurant's interior boasts a curated collection of vintage furniture and displays, echoing the quaint charm of the bygone era. It is small yet warm, untidy yet charming, filled with yesteryear's memorabilia that only enhances the nostalgia-infused
Chilli Padi Nonya Restaurant
Overall the food at this Michelin-endorsed restaurant is above average and comes in hearty portions. That makes their prices friendly too, just like the service. Definitely a good choice for a cosy Perakan meal.
