The Mansion


The Mansion

Also known as 32 Kelewei. Under the same management as 68 Kelewei. A cross between continental and local cuisine. One of my friend told me it was rather "nyonya type" kind of food. The only closest "nyonya type" food I found was Nasi Lemak (coconut milk rice). Talk about wrong information...

But the food is pretty good. The restaurant is set up inside a pre-war, colonial building at the UPR (Upper Penang Road) stretch. The atmosphere is fabulous, especially if you sit in the patio area, with the seaview just infront of you. They have life bands sometimes. Otherwise, you will have jazz/blues to accompany you as you nibble on your grilled white cod and as you sip on your '97 Napa Valley Chardonnay.

Price is slightly steep... well, it truly depends on the individual, ain't it? But comparing with the Penang food-price baseline, it maybe one sigma above the average... :P A decent meal would be about RM70... Well, you be the judge.

boon out...
