Penang Island or "Pulau Pinang" is named after the betel-nut palm which was found in great abundance on the island.
This 285-sq km island lies off the north-west coast of West Malaysia, and has a population of slightly over half a million.
Penang is famous for its superb food besides
its beaches, the Penang Bridge (S.E. Asia's longest) and its blend
of easy-going modern and old-world charm. The multi-racial
background of Penang produces an exciting and unique cuisine which
is a melting-pot of Malay, Thai, Indian and Chinese flavours.

Hi. My name is Paul Ooi and together with my wife, Hannah, we seek to bring you the authentic flavours of Penang cuisine.
I was born an hour's drive away from Penang Island and grew up in a Nonya family where I remembered that both my grandmothers
wore sarong kebayas and food was always of a high quality.
The chefs on our team are from Penang and they each have worked with me for years. Only authentic and fresh ingredients are
used and cooked without lard to serve you with healthier choices. We have tried to select and present the most sought-after
evergreen Penang favourites for you to enjoy.
We welcome you and
promise to do our best to ensure that you have a delightful
experience. Thank you for coming to Penang Place. We hope to see
you, your relatives and friends here often.
