Enjoy tipples with your tapas

Some of Grapes&Malts’ food items include (clockwise from top right) the Quesadilla, House Dip, Cheese Board and Jumbo Sausage. (Left pic) Connoisseurs of wine and whisky will love the premium selection available at the restaurant.

BEVERAGES normally play a supporting role to food, but at Grapes&Malts in Penang, a reversal sees fine elixirs take centre stage instead.

Wines and whiskies are the stars of this cosy outlet along Chow Thye Road in George Town, complemen-ted by tapas-style grub that is meant to enhance the drinking experience.
