For all things coca-derived, this is your best choice in Penang. The boiled coca leaves, be it wrapped dim-sum style around a variety of meat and seafood delicacies or simply by themselves, are the best I've ever tasted, and that's saying something because I used to live in Colombia. After eating your fill, why not round off your fine dining experience by trying some of their award-winning powdered coca extract, which can also be ordered as an invigorating tea, or ask for a take-out package to enjoy at home. It's certainly not cheap at around 160 ringgit per gram, but once you've tasted it I guarantee you'll be hooked and you'll soon be back for more. Coca is a truly outstanding restaurant, a gem of Penang.
