DINE & COFFEE | KOTA- WHEN FRANCIS MEETS REMPAH @ FORT CORNWALLIS, PENANG
Kota Dine & Coffee
“When Francis Meets Rempah @ Fort Cornwallis, Penang”
The gastronomic escapade
of late has been a wondrous adventure especially after visiting the splendid Victorian
architecture of Farquhar Mansion for
its moreish High Tea tête-à-tête
session and its dainty Fine Dining Chef’sTasting menu which embodies the cinq philosophy.
In fact, there was more to
discover about the beauty of this food haven such as our maiden visit to this
unique dining area of Kota- When Francis
Meets Rempah, located at the historic Fort
Cornwallis, one of the famous tourist spot in Penang.
Dubbed as progressive
menu, their interpretation of Asian cuisine is inspired by the gastronomic
possibilities as Kota Dine & Coffee welcomes
you to an experience of Western culinary delights that embraces traditional
local Malaysian flavours. It’s an ode to art which showcases a dedication
towards authentic creations and indirectly compounds the inexplicable
experience that both Kota and Fort Cornwallis have to offer to visitors.
