Yaw's Roast & Grill

Yaw's Roast & Grill in Penang stands out as a cozy, unpretentious spot that punches well above its weight when it comes to flavor and quality. Tucked away in the residential area of Tanjung Bungah, it’s one of those places that feels like a local secret—welcoming, down-to-earth, and consistently satisfying. Among the highlights of the menu, the Mix Grill is undoubtedly the star attraction and a true celebration of grilled meats done right.

The Mix Grill is a generous, well-composed platter featuring a trio of grilled meats: tender chicken, juicy lamb, and hearty beef—all expertly seasoned and cooked to lock in their natural flavors. The chicken is moist and slightly smoky, the lamb is rich and succulent without being overpowering, and the beef is flavorful with a satisfying sear. Each component is grilled with care, delivering that perfect balance of char on the outside and tenderness on the inside. What makes it even better is that each meat retains its unique texture and taste, yet they come together beautifully on the plate.

Accompanying the meats are a variety of thoughtfully prepared sides—often including creamy mashed potatoes, grilled vegetables, and a savory black pepper or mushroom sauce that enhances rather than overpowers the dish. The sauces are particularly noteworthy, adding depth and richness without masking the grilled flavors. The portion size is generous, making it ideal for sharing or for those with a hearty appetite.
