The Peranakan or Nyonya heritage is traced back to the early adventures of migrants predominantly from the Fujian province in Southeastern China, who settled throughout the Malay Archipelago in South East Asia. In their new environment, and through interracial marriage with the locals, a new cuisine is born.
Nyonya cuisine is acknowledged as one of the earliest examples of fusion food, with the Penang Nyonyas artfully blending their cooking techniques and ingredients from the Chinese, Malays, Thais and Southern Indians. Penang Nyonya cuisine, which is not shy of flavours or fragrance, is famous the world over and highly sought after by visitors to Penang.
Cooking from the heart, we strive to continue the traditions and family recipes handed down through the generations. Apart from this, we also proudly bring you our handpicked selection of the best street foods from Penang, ones that have placed Her on the world culinary map.
At Little Penang, we take pride in our food, lots of pride. Lai chiak. Come dine with us.
