5 New Things to Try in Penang This Week
1. Belle And Cream
Cheesecake and bubble milk tea have been taking the Internet by storm lately. Both of them are classics for a reason, and this is the place where you can even to have both in one dish. The cheesecake here is always impeccable, creamy, smooth, perfectly burnt. The base properly crunchy, enriched by subtle flecks of vanilla, paired with their punchy boba- this is what we call the taste of heaven. Yep, they do serve boba milk tea here too! Refreshing, comforting, full of fun and flavour. In a nutshell, this is the perfect place to be in when you want both a drink and a dessert.

Penang’s cafe scene is a diverse beast, and here’s a new one on the list. Decked out in an easy-going bustle style, Have A Seat is a new neighbourhood cafe tucked in The Landmark.

3. Inside Scoop
AHHH yesyesyes! We did write about its opening here, but listing it again just to remind you not to miss it: It’s too good to be left behind. Visit their store in Queensbay Mall yourself and you’ll know what I mean. “Hi! We’re the best ice cream store from KL!”- Well, that’s the first thing you’d hear at the counter. Indeed, other than their A-list appeal, their impeccable service is surely the supporting role for the amazing menu it serves. Known for serving Malaysian flavoured ice cream like cempedak & chendol, their wide selection of eccentric flavours are also true crescendos of texture and flavour, and certainly not one for the faint-hearted.

4. Dear Dino Cafe
Located on Penang Road in Georgetown, Dear Dino Cafe helps to give you a fresh spring in your step with juices and smoothies packed full of vibrant produce.

Grab a juice to go, or sit inside with their smoothie bowl to be surrounded by a sense of calm with interiors decorated in whites, neutrals and pale wooden tones.
