The DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Penang hosted its Global Week of Engagement 2026 at its ballroom along with guests and media members.
Welcoming them was Hotel Manager, Lycan Hon and his team members. Guests were treated to some fine cocktails and given a brief introduction to the engagement session along with lucky draws.
Meanwhile, they also invite guests to indulge in a vibrant culinary journey with the launch of two distinctive themed dinner buffets at Makan Kitchen:
Classic Local Cuisine Fridays and Seafood Surfers Saturdays, beginning 3 April 2026. Designed to celebrate both heritage flavours and indulgent dining, the weekly offerings present a curated experience for families, food enthusiasts, and seafood lovers alike, thoughtfully crafted by Chef Rasdan, whose expertise in local and international cuisine brings depth, authenticity, and refinement to each menu.
Classic Local Cuisine Fridays showcase the richness of Malaysian culinary traditions, featuring an array of comforting and authentic favourites inspired by recipes passed down through generations.
Guests can savour highlights such as BBQ Beef Short Ribs, Baked Whole Chicken Percik, Laksa Lemak Kelantan, Rendang Tok, Yong Tau Foo, and Wok-Fried Penang Char Kuey Teow, each dish crafted to evoke the essence of local heritage.
On Saturdays, Seafood Surfers takes centre stage with a premium seafood spread, offering a refined yet indulgent dining experience. The menu features an impressive selection including Slow-Roasted Lamb Leg with Garlic and Thyme, Oven-Baked Norwegian Salmon Wellington, Sautéed Garlic Butter Prawns, Wok-Fried Chili Crab, an extensive Seafood on Ice selection, and Portuguese-Style Baked Whole Barramundi, perfect for those seeking ocean-inspired flavours.
Set within Makan Kitchen’s lively open-kitchen concept, guests can enjoy live cooking stations and a wide variety of dishes in a warm, family-friendly atmosphere.
