Peranakan Party Set |
If you love Peranakan food, the tables are set for all things Peranakan at Penang Culture for the entire month of July. As a restaurant chain dedicated to the food from one of the original settlements of the Peranakan people – Penang – it is highlighting an authentically Peranakan menu dubbed the Peranakan Party Set, priced at 50% off from 1st to 31st July 2021. The set is available for dine-in and takeaway at all 5 outlets islandwide, and on delivery via Oddle.
The Peranakan people, colloquially also known as the Babas and Nyonyas of the Straits Settlements of Penang and Malacca in Malaysia, came about from Chinese settlers who inter-married local Malays and assimilated to adopt their culture and heritage. The result is a blending of many things, the most delicious of which is the food. Rich and flavourful, it features Chinese techniques and rich Malaysian and Indonesian spices, taking the palate on a multi-national journey with each bite.

Begin your meal with the quintessential Peranakan starter of Nonya Kuih Pie Tee – crunchy little cracker cups filled with stir-fried turnip, garlic, carrot, and shrimp. A little drizzle of chili sauce, a dash of black sweet sauce, and a topping of shredded omelet will whet appetites in no time.
