Penang: Malaysian cuisine in Boston

Penang: Malaysian cuisine in Boston

During my short visit in Boston, Mr.Butter made sure that we stopped by Penang, where his memories projected happy tummy times. It seemed like many agreed with Mr.Butter as the traffic did not die down even on a rainy day.

Lemon Tree, specializing in fusion Southeast Asian cuisine, was the lucky winner!

The list of dishes available on the menu is extensive, but my eyes were on one only. CURRY with PAROTTA. Continue Reading…
