Itinerary

  1. 1

    Little India - Penang

    1 hour

    We begin our journey at one of the oldest enclaves in George Town. Like the migrants who made this place home, we will wander the city - exploring its food, its quirks and finding our place in this vibrant and diverse melting pot.

  2. 2

    Chulia Street

    1 hour

    Change is inevitable, and we will discover how the winds of change have rearranged the city from its founding, to its glory days in the 19th century. Our selection of food changes with it, telling us a story many people barely perceive.

  3. 3

    Penang

    1 hour

    We get a little off the beaten track, and discuss the pieces and players and recent events that have changed the face of George Town. We reflect on our journey, and how it mirrors the journey of this city and its people. And perhaps we come away a little wiser (and full of food).

Meeting and pickup

At Lebuh Penang & Lebuh China, Ren is the white colonial style inn on the corner. You will meet your host *outside of* the Bistro on the ground floor, as the hotel & bistro are closed to the public at this time.
