The Penang Table
A look at The Penang Table is like a refreshing departure from what one could reasonably predict about Bandra’s restaurant scene. This restaurant is situated on bustling Linking Road, yet it still maintains a relaxed ambience. It is more like one gets a sense of something made for indulgence, not mere viewership. It is a tranquil yet lively ambiance that urges one to stay for a bit, not just for the taste of something but also for the fluency of something that is made, not for mere impressing, but for indulging. This ambience is what makes it unique from the point of entry.
The Penang Table Bandra
Located on the ground floor of Linking Road, it is a Malaysian restaurant that brought Malaysian cuisine to Bandra with a clear sense of intent. In the midst of such a heavily pan-Asian-dominated restaurant culture in the city, it is heartening to note that this restaurant has decided to specialize in what it does, choosing to showcase Malaysian cuisine with the respect it deserves. “The Penang Table” is a result of Malaysia’s multicultural heritage, celebrating Malaysian cuisine with influences from Malay, Chinese, and Indian cuisines without undermining their respective identities. This restaurant, one of the new restaurants in Bandra Mumbai, is distinctive for its ability to offer diners a globally inspired experience while remaining true to its own culinary narrative.
The Penang Table Review
AMBIENCE
The Penang Table’s ambience is one that is brightly inviting yet subtly sophisticated. During the day, the restaurant is bathed in natural lighting that accentuates the warm tones of the setting. As the day transitions into the night, the lighting becomes softer, imbuing the restaurant with a relaxed yet romantic feel. While the restaurant does pay homage to Southeast Asia with Southeast Asian design elements, it does so in a subtle manner that prevents it from becoming too kitschy or bland. It is also designed with seating that is conducive to both socializing and private conversations. This is evident by the way it encourages diners to stay longer.
The Penang Table Food
FOOD
Food at The Penang Table is balanced, complex, and admirably informed by Malaysian cuisine. This is a seasoned cuisine that layers flavors for spice, acidity, sweetness, or richness without overwhelming the other elements. Its key ingredients include lemongrass, kaffir lime, coconut, pandan, and tamarind. This is not a cuisine that bombards the sensibilities but slowly reveals layers of depth with each morsel. It is a cuisine that takes care with portions so that one does not feel like they are indulging too much with each order. This is a refreshing approach that takes care not to offend.
The Penang Table Menu
Dish offerings at The Penang Table are brief but inclusive. Laksa dishes are impressive with their fragrant soups and balanced levels of spices. Soft rotis showcase nice crumbling qualities for accompanying gravies or sauces. Noodle-based dishes remain balanced with perfect forms that do not feel weighed down. More meal offerings exemplify the kitchen’s mastery of its craft.
The Penang Table Drinks
DRINKS
In their cocktail offerings, the drinks incorporate elements of Asian botanicals and citrus that work well with the flavors of the food that is served. There is also a good balance of the drinks to ensure that they do not overpower the palate. This is evident in their cocktail offerings, which seem more an attempt to enhance the dining experience than to complement it on their own. This is also evident in their non-alcoholic drink offerings, which are not too sweet.
