Whilst I was in Penang, we had a wonderful buffet dinner at E&O. E&O is a very old hotel first built during the colonial times. It has been refurbished, with some of its suites named after famous guests: Sir Noel Coward, Rudyard Kipling and Herman Hesse. It is one of two hotel in our country, that I know of, that still has the old antique lift. The one qualification one needs to be a lift operator is to be at least 6.4ft tall. This is so one could reach the 'buttons'.

Of course, it serves sea food - Norwegian Salmon and fresh oysters freshly flown in from New Zealand.
Dessert has to be be marshmallow dipped in a chocolate foudue..
Vanity, vanity, all is vanity - a good excuse to indulge occassionally!
