A meal there's made up of multiple courses, every one of them exclusive and very distinctive and contains to end up being savoured and appreciated gradually over a couple of hours....it is not meals to end up being rushed through. Dining here's bound to be always a very unforgettable and glamorous occasion because the chef is indeed creative in his usage of nearby generate and the presentations are usually so individualistic. It includes a true glowing blue locavore philosophy and will pay respectful homage to nearly 100% local substances in every his dishes. The unique and beautiful foods presentations can make every dish quite Instagram friendly! That is food near to the heart of several Malaysians and Singaporeans but introduced within an upmarket way. That is by no indicates a bad matter at all...it really is about period we within SE Asia begin to appreciate and elevate the position of our very own indigenous local make rather than importing expensive ingredients (want caviar and foie gras) from the West. The name of the eating place “Gen” (or roots in Chinese ) is intended to emphasise this. Bravo to the very pioneering and authentic cafe in Penang for considering our regional produce with a fresh found zoom lens and interpreting and presenting them in that special and uniquely innovative way. And kudos to the performer of a chef for getting his inspiration inside our own local roots....

The title says everything. Just what a unique & refreshing knowledge. Malaysian fusion cuisine that basically delights! We emerged for lunch time & had the short program (4-training course) for RM120 (US$30). (The 7-program lunch is RM180 ($45), & dinner training course is RM300 ($75)). Blew the 3of us apart! We shall certainly be back again for the entire dinner whenever we next visit George City.
