If you’re looking for a great place to unwind over amazing food, Firewood Penang is definitely worth checking out. I had dinner there recently, and honestly, it was one of the best meals I’ve had in a while. The warm, rustic vibe of the place made it even better—cozy lighting, the scent of wood-fire grilling in the air, and just an overall inviting atmosphere.

Firewood Chitose Tomato Soup

For the main course, we went for steak with truffle mashed potatoes. The steak? Absolute perfection. Perfectly seared on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside, and just bursting with that smoky, umami goodness. And don’t even get me started on the mashed potatoes. Creamy, buttery, and infused with just the right amount of truffle—like, you could taste it without it being overpowering. It was the kind of meal that makes you want to slow down and savor every bite.

The whole experience was just spot-on. The staff were super friendly and made great recommendations, and the ambiance made it feel like the perfect spot for a chill but special night out. If you love wood-fired flavors or just appreciate a really well-cooked steak, Firewood Penang is a must-visit. I’m already thinking about going back for round two!
