Penang is a diverse hub of culinary traditions, and the sheer breadth of local dishes can seem daunting at first. Worry not. Our curated Penang food tour offers a comprehensive introduction to some of George Town's most beloved dining spots, many of which are hidden gems not easily stumbled upon alone. During the tour, you'll take a deep dive into Penang's rich food culture and history, seeing how it has shaped the current gastronomic scene. You'll encounter the people behind the meals, salivate over 15+ tastings, and discover the key ingredients that have created this island's vibrant food scene.
What you’ll do
Our feasting tour of 15+ tastings invites guests on a culinary experience around the backstreets of old George Town. It's a carefully curated foodie experience led by a team of professional Penang food guides.
Many are unaware of Penang’s unique culinary history, a mouthwatering mishmash of Malay, Indian and Southern Chinese culminating in a unique Nyonya cuisine. Penang might be one of South East Asia’s lesser visiting spots, but the culinary scene more than measures up to its neighbors.
Four hours of feasting on our curated daily food experience await. Master your chopstick skills over sizzling plates of Hokkien noodles and char ho fun, mop up mutton curry with roti jala, dig into garlic fried chicken and steamed okra, and discover blue rice and osmanthus flower jelly among more than a dozen other sumptuous tastings at places you’d struggle to find alone.
The tour concludes at Kimberly Street Night Market in all its foodie glory. Enjoy local hospitality and meet new friends along the way. End the tour armed with the knowledge you'll need to continue eating across Penang and Malaysia.
