Jaloux

George Town


Chefs Hong and Yen have charmed Penangites at two previous venues, with their quirky style and delicious Italian food and desserts. Jaloux is their latest venture and features both minimalist decor and a pared-back menu, almost exclusively homemade pasta with maybe a soup or panna cotta for support. It's all delicious and worth the wait.
