We would like to introduce the famous Tai Tong Restaurant in Penang Island (Georgetown), Malaysia. Malaysia is made up of various races and cultures, and Penang Island is a prime example of this. One block has a British fort and white buildings, while another block has Indian shops. Tai Tong is located in an area with many Chinese shops, and is a popular restaurant where you can enjoy their specialty dim sum from early in the morning. There is a steamer at the back of the restaurant, where you can order by pointing at what you want to eat. Menus other than dim sum can be ordered from the English menu. We ordered shrimp fried rice and fried tofu, and everything was delicious, including the dim sum. Please note that there is a break between lunch and dinner hours. #MalaysiaTourism #PenangIsland #DimSum
