Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our evening with the attentive and knowledgeable Mr Eng. It was fascinating to hear how Penang has changed and to see how it is developing. Penang Hill is the perfect vantage point for that. Dinner was good - but naturally it was the setting that made it special.

Great fun and an amazing place to take panoramic pictures of Penang, my only recommendation - the menu for the restaurant could be more tailored to the culture of Penang.
