Indigo Restaurant at George Town
Location: Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, 14, Lebuh Leith, Georgetown, 10200 George Town, Penang, Malaysia
Cheong Fatt Tze - The Blue Mansion
The kitchen is led by Chef Kim Hock Su, who previously worked at Suffolk House and other established Penang fine-dining venues. The menu blends refined Nyonya and Peranakan flavours with contemporary French technique, producing dishes such as otak-otak terrine, lamb rendang with buah keras, and lobak rolls with a sweet-spicy dip. The chef's tasting menu changes seasonally and pairs well with the restaurant's curated wine list.
Dinner service runs from 6.30pm to 10pm, with advance reservations recommended due to limited seating. The Blue Mansion provides limited on-site parking; the nearest public car park is at the Lebuh Clarke municipal lot. Walk-in guests may also tour the courtyard before their meal, subject to heritage-tour availability.
