Post by Chiefeater VK

I dropped by Khoon Pastry House on Jalan Argyll in George Town, Penang, a traditional Hainanese café that has retained much of its old-fashioned character. The café itself was part of the experience, with its walls covered in old photographs, newspaper clippings and memorabilia. It felt like stepping into an earlier era of Penang’s café culture.

I was still too full to have a proper meal, and even their pies looked too substantial for my appetite. So I settled for a Spring Roll (RM11) instead.

The spring roll was certainly crisp, which wasn’t surprising as I was the first customer of the day. The filling was generous and had a pleasant flavour, although it needed the accompanying Worcestershire sauce to give it that extra lift.

This visit was a nostalgic experience that I enjoyed.
