    Sin Nam Huat Roasted Chicken and Duck RiceNon halal 01f78899591256b47a2708a65f6538333b86089a30fbd22545a41deece4ea490

    Sim Nam Huat is one of the popular ones among locals. Here you'll find not only roasted chicken, but a variety of duck and pork too. Though the restaurant itself isn't too fancy, the line of queue is enough to say that customers prefer good food over ambience. Just be aware that the queue is pretty long if you arrive late.

    Come early before the roast pork sells out.

    It's grand, it's posh and it's everything you will want in a Chinese wedding. Maple Palace Chinese Restaurant is another fantastic Chinese banquet restaurant located in George Town, Penang. This huge bungalow is fitted with mostly gold-coloured drapes and furniture, with a balance of white and skin-tone, making it really bright and vibrant. Their menu is without a doubt, extensive. But more often than not, people usually go for the arranged menu. However, if you do choose to go for their ala carte selections, there are some dishes that worthy of trying such as the cheese baked lobster. 

    Tips

    Reservations recommended. Private room available.

    Things to expect

    A posh, grand and luxurious restaurant.

    Restoran Tho YuenNon halal 01f78899591256b47a2708a65f6538333b86089a30fbd22545a41deece4ea490

    The Tho Yuen restaurant is another eatry on our list. The restaurant is very well known for the dishes they serve, many love their Dim Sum,  Egg Tarts, Paus, Chicken Rice and many other dishes. It is best to go early if one wishes to try their Dim Sum as due to their popularity they tend to be finished. Once lunch time arrives, the Chicken Rice stall opens up. The restaurant's enviroment is rather cozy and spacious, but during peak hours can get rather full.

    Tips

    Leave earlier or make reservations as it gets full during the peak hours.

    Things to expect

    A cozy environment.
