Best Lamb Chops in Penang

Making its mark along Burmah Road, Naughty Nuri’s Warung has been a realm of spellbinding barbeque ride, earning epithets such as “The Best Pork Ribs in Town” and “Cognoscenti of BBQ”.  Predominantly pork ribs top the chart, yet if you belly begs for a change, never miss their Grilled Lamb Chop. Sharing space on the full-of-life volcanic rock grill, the slab of meat is excellent. Deftly done on the grill, speckles of smoky chars complement the gamy goodness which is utterly fork-tender. Consorts of mashed potato and fresh salad add a layer of flavour and texture. You’ll be grinning all the way just like the amusing pig sculptures throughout the restaurant. Hobnob in the convivial atmosphere and imbibe some captivating cocktails. 

A 19th-century stable and barn now gentrified to a glorious colonial-style restaurant. Wine and dine in an ambiance that spells class and comfort, the best bet to bring Valentine’s Day vibes before your eyes at any time and day of the year. Despite being a new contender, they have been magnetising meat lovers, where Grilled Lamb Chops share the honours. It’s a thick and juicy meat where even a toothless guy can have it all day long. Far-flung choices of wines might create a conundrum, yet seek their sommelier to further enhance your meat-devouring experience with a glass of curated wine. Ensconce in the comforting courtyard, raising your glass with your partner while adorning asterisms on the sky, a great aesthetic pleasure is guaranteed. 

Sidestepping from the bouncy and hipster scene, Yaw’s Roast and Grill portraits a homey-style ambiance, festooned with foliage of greens and comfort seating. Among the best sellers on the menu are their Grilled Lamb Chop, where hearty stacks of juicy and tender meat are paired with a handful of French fries, homemade sauce, and a dollop of greens.  Polish the bones clean while chugging down fresh juices in a soothing environment. 

Why huff and puff to sift all those Penang famous wall murals when Elmural Cafe offers you to marvel them while gobbling down hearty meals. Aptly named “El Mural,” which means wall in Spanish, it downright charms your Instagram upon entering. To charm your palate, sink in their Lamb Chop, which has luscious layers of chars sitting above the juicy and moreish meat. You can have it as it is or liberally shroud the lamb with brown or yogurt mint sauce. Sides of potatoes and fresh salads add crunch and colour to the dish. And save some space for gelatos to wash it all down.
