When we usually hear about waffles, most of us might have thought it is only for tea break or as desserts. Cafes and restaurants in Penang has since then evolve and been creative to create waffles that can be served as breakfast, lunch, dinner or just for a small bite.
Here’s some of the best waffle spots that Penang has to offer.
The Warung
The Warung’s specialty and their main item is non other than the waffles. Offering a range of waffles from sweet to savoury, they also have special seasonal menu that changes from time to time.
They have outlets in Penang, Selangor and Kuala Lumpur. Two of them is located in Penang. If you prefer to enjoy your waffles with heritage vibes and to shop for products by local makers, you’ve got to visit the Victoria Street branch. That is also the original and first The Warung that opens.
If you’d prefer to have a proper discussion with friends and business partners, you might want to consider the Pulau Tikus branch, which is located inside Common Ground, the largest co-working space provider in Southeast Asia. It is also suitable if you’re looking for a space to work or study, after all it is built for that purpose.
