TopView Restaurant & Lounge is a restaurant occupying the 59th and 60th floor of Komtar Tower. It is managed under The TOP Komtar. Diners get to enjoy various set meals while enjoying the panoramic view of Penang Island and beyond. This is particularly lovely during nightfall, where you can have fine dining by candlelight, as we did.

Visit to TopView Restaurant & Lounge

My wife and I had a fine dining experience when we visited TopView Restaurant & Lounge on 6 November, 2018. In anticipation of our visit, Chef Teoh, the Head Chef of TopView & Coco Cabana, has prepared for us a lovely set dinner. We would be enjoying the 5-Course Degustation Dinner (which is priced at RM98++ per person).

Our meal begins with Freshly Baked Bread with Pamplie unpastuerised butter. This is served with the Chef's Amuse-bouche, which is a delightful mille-feuille comprising cured salmon with cream cheese, and topped with caviar and dill.

For the main course, there is a selection of three items:

- Baby Barramundi with mashed truffle pomme de terre, broccoli floret and clam beurre blanc.

- Supreme of Chicken with Jasmine Cream with Tomato And Crab Tortellini And Butter Broccoli & Mushroom.

- Herb Crusted Rack of Lamb with mashed truffle pomme de terre, marinated cucumber, broccoli floret & au jus.

I opted for the fish while my wife the chicken. The chicken was superb, while the fish was slightly on the dry side. Other than that, both items were great.

The meal was drawn to a conclusion with dessert, which was blueberry and ricotta cheese gâteau. The final item (which neither my wife nor I opted for) was coffee or tea. Unfortunately coffee and tea make us sleepless, so we had to forgo it.

After the meal, I congratulated Chef Teoh for preparing us such a wonderful and memorable meal, and I also thank the Food & Beverage Director of The TOP, Miss Cheng Siew Ling, for arranging this meal for us.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
