This original and absolutely original restaurant in Penang is worth a minumum of one Michelin star if the guide found Penang. It really is fairly fresh and situated in the Prestige Resort ( that is also quite brand-new) and the cuisine available isabsolutely fantastic in all respects. 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.

Hidden gem inside Penang, situated in Prestige hotel shop/resto complicated. It’s a sister resto from Communal Desk Gen in Lebuh Presgrave. Tasting menu, great flavor with Malaysian flavour. Another specific issue is T’lur Caviar that is regional caviar that’s refreshing and offered in a canwith seafood at the bottom. Innovative plating and surprising great taste! Friendly, useful staffs and helpful on menu. Good ambience e and sophisticated decor. Chef Jhonson/proprietor will be useful and cater you in the event of any allergic on meals. Very recommended!

1) Some dish flavor good plus some mediocre but the part is too small still for a little eater would choose a plate of neighborhood delicacies eg: Char Kway Tiaw or perhaps a plate of prawn noodle to fulfill the food. And it’s price RM300for leaving the cafe with unsatisfied stomach. 2) The restaurant atmosphere itself totally does not have any instagrammable spot in all. It produced us felt like get into to an area which has finished with turndown service. (Prepared to sleep) Insufficient lightings, full closed drapes, unplanned ceiling lightings set up, no desk linen. We simply don’t feel excited whenever we walking into the eating place. Providentially, the servers are usually friendly enough to permit us continue the dinner to the end. 3) Many individuals will undoubtedly be familiar with the problem after a long your meal in a cafe where you have already been served the procession of small meals, the chef magnanimously happens and stroll to the eating hall talking with diners their meal. Nevertheless, this is never the situation. Despite, no lunch group. Lastly, Gēn servers has surpass quality standard, they will have understanding of food and the opportunity to describe to it. One stop by at Gēn will do, unless they improve about the above mentioned.

We reside in Manhattan and eat plenty of Michelin-reviewed meals. We thought we would spend among our 3 nights in Penang at Gen, and may not advocate it more highly. This restaurant is actually, really spectacular and worth the best praise. The serviceis the very best I've ever seen - basically one female running the show (offering the kitchen orders, offering each dish, informing the tale). Each dish is incredibly special and has a particular tale behind it. The eating experience takes 2-3 hrs so equipment up for a unforgettable night (and incredibly full stomach). Loved the ambiance - it is rather little and intimate. The highlight of the night time was when someone obtained down on a knee and proposed!! Also do NOT miss the cocktails, they are among the best I've ever had.
