Located in a charming early‑20th‑century bungalow at 216 Jalan Macalister, Ghee Hiang is Penang’s heritage bakery and sesame‑oil distiller established in 1856. Its spacious outlet, complete with ample parking, showcases daily‑baked Fujian-style pastries like signature tau sar pneah, sesame crisps, beh teh saw, and almond cookies—plus a selection of bottled sesame oil, coffee, and tea blends  .
