Housed in an old heritage house along Lebuh Melayu in George Town, Penang, Chao Xuan 潮轩 is one new Chinese restaurant to the area. Its menu is packed of traditional Teo Chew delights and snacks to thrill your taste buds.

I chose this restaurant based on a Penang blogger's recommendation, and it was truly awful 🥲🥲 The chives were bitter, and the red rice cake was mushy and tasteless 🥲.

place is airy, cozy, not too noisy. can get warm during noon. porridge set - rice porridge with chunks of sweet potato and saucer plates of dishes... served in a big dim sum basket. presentable. kwang chiang- overall tasted great.

It's too hard to find parking in this area, not worth it to waste so much time finding parking just for a mediocre meal, the food is ready made and will be microwaved before serving, coffee is good though.

The food is expensive but poorly made. The preserved radish omelet is sweet?? The braised dishes aren't as good as those in Taiwan, and the char siu isn't as good as in Guangzhou.
