ITINERARY BOOK

This journey has been personally designed by Chef Johnson,
after a journey of cookery experiences in the kitchens of several countries around the world, returned home to Malaysia and shares now his passion for local ingredients and culture.

All our itineraries have generally been constructed on the basis of the rooms that have the most charm or best view, and not necessarily the first prices, nor the most expensive suites.
We can of course adjust according to your request.

Highlights of the Journey:

An exploration of UNESCO protected Penang and its famous food culture.

Tired of tourist trails? Explore Penang for a 3 day-visit, discover its unique street food culture, visit markets and farms with a native Chef, learn how to cook some dish and enjoy a tasting menu at Gen while you staying in the most iconic building of Penang, awarded by UNESCO for the restoration work – The Blue Mansion.
Experience the local lifestyle & hidden secrets of Georgetown.
