Downtown Restaurant, George Town, PenangDowntown Restaurant, George Town, Penang (1 June 2013)


Downtown Restaurant (or Restoran Downtown) is a hawker centre in George Town, Penang. It is located at the junction of Bridge Street (Jalan CY Choy) and Presgrave Street, and is the biggest eatery in the area. Downtown Restaurant can be entered from both Bridge and Presgrave Streets.

When I passed by it, although Downtown Restaurant is quite big, it is also quite empty. I probably arrived at a wrong time, when most of the stalls are not operating.
