The Seven Terraces owned by Christopher Ong, a heritage-preserving and award winning hotelier, has worked with the hotel’s chefs to create a menu of classic Indo and Straits Chinese Nyonya dishes. Along with Chef Zac and Chef Kent, Kebaya had undergone reinterpretation and de-construction to deliver surprising new twists of elevation in its serving.

Prior to the opening of Kebaya, Chris has the luxury of working closely with both the chefs, Zac and Kent for more than six months. In the hardship battle to convince the Swiss-trained chef to venture into this path, Chris has guided the chefs into the right direction with the help of Nyonya aunties with a lifetime of Peranakan cooking knowledge.

Armed with their passed on secrets, Kebaya applies very innovative cooking methods using traditional Malaysian flavour profiles, Vietnamese lightness, Thai spiciness, and traditional French cooking styles. In this innovative produce, Kebaya delivers surprising new twists on this already fascinating cuisine.

    Food was more than great! Came here to celebrate honeymoon with my wife. Worth every dollar spent here. Service was good, food was great, atmosphere was even better. I like the traditional decoration along with someone playing the music. Would definitely revisit there again!

    A very charming & elegant fine dining experience. An interesting, delectable twist to Peranakan Food presented in a beautiful setting. Slightly pricey but justified with good ingredients & perfect execution!Every guest of mine enjoyed the experience. Met Colin, who was so engaging and showed us around the premises. Keep it up, I'll be back!!!

    I'm grateful to the people we met at our hotel who recommended we dine here. We didn't have a booking but thought we'd try our luck and we were so glad we did! Everything about the night was wonderful. The dining room is beautifully elegant, the traditional decor makes the occasion feel special, the staff were so super friendly and lovely! And the FOOD was heavenly. Kebaya is tucked away in an unprepossessing street but when you enter the doors - well - the atmosphere is superb indeed - set in one of those gorgeously restored Georgetown heritage buildings - thank goodness they are being appreciated and made the most of these days. Do yourself a favour and dine here, it's a treat but it's worth it.

    We had a dinner here on 31 July 2024. We came here because we want to try peranakan cuisine that was recommended by michelin, and we were pleased with everything they provided here. From the moment we entered, till we left, everything was just right. The staffs were friendly, and there is this particular staff brought us around to introduce the place, the hotel and telling us the stories behind these buildings, which make us appreciate the place even more and the effort the owner put behind it, we are very grateful to him (i forgot to ask his name and he is from kl). The ambient is great, and the deco is insta worthy. Each of the dishes is great. The one I like the most is the beef caramelized with jam. Overall, it was a great place to dine.

    [Revisited Aug 2024, one month from 1st visit LOL] Ordered different dishes from my first visit. I would say that what I had ordered on my first visit were their best dishes LOL However, the restaurant manager told me that I must try their Prawn Geng and their Keradu Green Mango Salad, which are favourites among their diners, and that I must definitely visit them the 3rd time! LOL Also, do look out for the antique silverware that come with the dishes! They are real British antiques and are so beautiful! =)[Original post] Located within the Seven Terraces boutique hotel, this is a definitive Michelin Star Peranakan restaurant! NOT TO BE MISSED! The food is so so so good! The best Peranakan food I had ever tasted! The restaurant managed to further improved on traditional Peranakan dishes with their creativity, that had brought Peranakan cuisine to the next level! Flavours simply explode on your palate! You have to taste it to know what I meant LOL Portion is also huge! Service is also impeccable. The deco and ambient is typical of a Peranakan mansion of a wealthy family - part English and part Chinese, and lavishly decorated. So if you think this is a tourist trap based on the photos you see online, then you are so wrong and you don't know what you have missed LOL The price is also, dare me to say, cheap! This is a Michelin 1 Star restaurant you know! =) The is also a large alcoholic beverage selection and quite a large wine list =) This is one restaurant I will revisit when I next come to Penang! =)
