Variety of display food
Jul 2020
In this museum, they display variety of Malaysian food. So it very attract the foreign tourist to try all of the food by promoting them in the museum. It looks really tasty though and looks real.

So many real-looking food!
Dec 2019
Totally loving this museum! All the food replicas look so real and the area which features all the gigantic food like Ice Kacang and chendol is interesting and nice to take photos with. The museum is bigger than I thought too. Quite worth the money to experience something different in Penang!

Ok
Sep 2020 • Friends
It is a nice little exhibition of cuisines. I find it a bit pricey to enter but that's ok for once in a lifetime. A lot of information and the food models are so real-like.

I just don't enjoy the visit so much because the crews tail the visitor to take photos which they will ask if you want to buy once you exit. I know they are just doing their job, but come on, give us some space. On the good side, they are helpful to take photos for visitors using their smartphones.

Interesting stories of MAlaysian food
Jul 2020
This museum shows models of all sorts of Malaysian foods, and tells how each type came to be incorporated into Malaysian cuisine. There is an admission charge, and a reduced rate for seniors.

Surprisingly great!
I don't know what i was expecting but I was very pleasantly surprised by this place. Very interactive but equally informative and interesting. Other than a bizarre unrelated political section, this museum is great and its heart is in the right place, bringing to light important ethical issues with food consumption
