Coffee lovers, if you haven’t tried Arabica Estate, then you’re missing out. They’re known for serving really good coffee and the passion they pour in for their beans. They focus on Arabica beans and the brewing skills, every cup is a pleasure to your sense, smooth on the throat. Besides coffee, they do serve delicate mains and desserts.

#3 Monopoly Social Exchange Lounge

Cr: @iss.apple

From the outside Monopoly Social Exchange Lounge might look like a fancy place for fine dine or teas for the rich. Yes they are fancily decorated and are so beautiful but take a look at the menu and you’ll be surprised. Their prices are actually pretty reasonable, for the environment and the quality you get. Their mains are also well presented and here you can have the privacy you want. The lounge has private rooms for you to hold functions, you can sip a glass of wine while playing monopoly. The lounge is by far one of the most outstanding places to eat at Karpal Singh Drive Penang.

#4 Spicy Lemak 辣死你妈

The Chinese name itself is a direct transalation of nasi lemak, which is very cheeky and unique. Spicy Lemak’s signature nasi lemak comes with three different coloured rice that uses natural dye. The portion is really filling and please order their chicken set, it’s their signature. The chicken is so crispy and well-marinated, every bite is so juicy and flavourful. The best thing about their nasi lemak is the sambal. They are so rich in belacan and super spicy, it’s like the best sambal ever ! Spicy Lemak loves playing with crazy combination, they have nasi lemak pizza and nasi lemak burger ! Are you brave enough for these ?

#5 Royal Tea

Cr: @_cindytang_

By now almost everyone knows Royal Tea, the ever famous milk tea with a layer of cream cheese on top. They have landed on Karpal Singh Drive at the beginning of the year. Fans no longer have to drive all the way to Butterworth or Queensbay to enjoy a cup of cheese tea. Choose your favourite base, which is your tea, or you could also try other flavors. If you’re a hardcore fan of cheese, add a slice of cheese on top of your cream cheese. Tilt your glass 45 degrees for that perfect combination.

#6 Le Harlequin

Cr: @kays_1117

Seafood-poured-on-table style is getting more and more typical in Penang, but Le Harlequin stands out with their unbeatable price and cooking method. Have you ever heard of teppanyaki seafood? Yeap your choice of seafood is cooked in teppanyaki style, before being served. Grab a bunch of people and order their combos here, the portion is huge and the price is so reasonable. Their seafood are fresh and taste, awesome! They also serve tropical fizzy drinks that are very eye-quenching, perfect to pair with your seafood.

#8 Bingsu 9 Korean Dessert Cafe

Cr: @wikki_panwk

Can’t get enough of Korean stuff even after a bbq session with your chingus? Head down to Bingsu 9 for a good bowl of shaved ice. The place and menu might be small but their bingsu is a thumbs up. Bingsu 9 is so generous with their toppings sometimes it might overflow a little. Plus they’re quite healthy as well, (mostly fruits) it’s the best way to balance out your heavy meal. Order their signature and thank us later, their cheesecake is DAMN GOOD.

#9 Drop Top Cafe

Cr: @dollarkhoo

Three Korean related eateries in a row. Drop Top is a Korean-franchise brand that gained fame in Korea and expanded its to other part of Asia. Penang is one of them and their menu has a touch of Korean. This is not a place for dinner, but rather a chill out spot for desserts and drinks. Their signature items would be the Sweet Potato Latte and Maple Honey Toast. Their other sweet delicacies also look really appealing, they’re too pretty to indulge in.

#10 Nona Bali

FOODTRAIL

It’s so hard to find Balinese food here in Penang and luckily we have Nona Bali. Their menu is pretty extensive and we must say we are wowed. A lot we are unfamiliar with and they look super interesting. Nona Bali mixes with flavors and ingredients, you’ll be surprised, they’re oddly delicious. The owner is very welcoming and friendly, he’ll walk around to ask whether customers are happy with the food. Their dishes are all MSG free so you’ll get authentic flavors here.
