Was invited to try their new signature dishes, so let's get right to it. Looking at the variety of dishes in its new menu, diners now have the option of not only being able to enjoy traditional Penang dishes that its known for, but also more fancy dishes of lobster, A5 wagyu, caviar and abalone to name a few! Chef Michael Khor Choon Keat, culinary maestro with over 25 years of experience, is now helming the kitchen team at George Town Tze Char & Craft Beer.
Let's have a look!
Black Truffle Sauce Lobster
Black Truffle Sauce Lobster @$68++ |
plump with hints of truffle |
A thing to note of this dish was that the aroma of truffle was really subtle to the nose. Only when it lands in the mouth that one truly taste the truffle.
Foie Gras with Caviar
Foie Gras with Caviar @$38++ |
Always wanted to impress your dining companion with foie gras and a glass of wine at a tze char place? Now you can!
The salad looking dish consist of duck meat cubed and slightly spicy. Interesting.
Lemon Butter Prawns in Yam Ring

The prawns at George Town has always maintained its standard this was no exception. The sauce was nicely thick though lemon taste was somewhat barely there.
Black Pepper A5 Wagyu
Black Pepper A5 Wagyu 120g @$48++ |
The sauce of the wagyu dish is strongly flavoured so, get ready with your drinks for this one.
Supreme Lobster Paofan

clams, fish, baby scallops |

And I think I have said this before, after all the drinks, it is really nice to have a bowl of comforting soup. The paofan here is our favourite dish that night. No, not because we had a lot of drinks (I had 1 glass of beer) but because the broth was flavourful and hovering between light and medium bodied. Seafood in there like the baby scallops, lobster and clams has a subtle sweetness and the crispy rice puffs made it all fun eats.
Abalone, Sea Cucumber and Mushroom
Abalone, Sea Cucumber and Mushroom 至尊三宝 @$38++ |
This dish of deliciously braised abalone, sea cucumber and mushroom combination is one that I may find in a wedding banquet but you can also enjoy it at George Town!
While not new on the menu, do watch out for their $1 chili crab promotion too and do enquire about the terms and conditions when ordering.

Lobster Mixed Platter and 3-Litres Amber Lager Tower
Priced at $88++, it's a delightful combination that's likely will appeal to the social drinkers in this area, looking for a great night out with their buddies. This combo works great for a group of 4 pax.

The Lobster mixed platter consists of snacks that goes well with the beer. You may want to enquire on what are the small plates for that day before ordering.
