Curios-City ★ 4.4

Modern European$$$$george-townWed-Sun 18:00-24:00; closed Mon-TueBook 1-2 weeks ahead

Curios-City hides an unsigned wabi-sabi dining room on Lebuh Victoria, pairing European technique with Malaysian twists across set menus in Penang.

Steak and seafoodChef Benny Yeoh$$$$george-townTue-Sun 12:00-14:30, 18:30-22:30; closed MonBook A few days ahead

Blacklinen dry-ages beef beside a charcoal grill on level nine of The Millen hotel, chef Benny Yeoh's dark-toned grillroom above Penang's seafront.

La Vie serves Asian-inflected European dinners in the Le Dream Boutique Hotel on Rope Walk, a Michelin-listed Penang room without the ceremony.
