Order: Colonial-style afternoon tea and Western mains
Up on Penang Hill with George Town and the strait spread out below. Afternoon tea on the terrace is the classic order; dinner after the crowds leave is quieter.
🍛 Nasi Kandar · Air Itam, Air Itam, Penang
Order: Daging masak hitam with fried chicken and sautéed cabbage
Tucked between the flats of Kampung Melayu, this neighbourhood stall has been the Air Itam breakfast-and-lunch ritual since the 1970s. Its dark, sweet-spiced beef is the dish people drive across the island for.
