Loke Thye Kee Building
Loke Thye Kee (樂台居) is both a landmark and a brand name that instantly brings back memories of nostalgic Penang. Situated in the centre of Georgetown at the key junction of Burma Road and Penang Road, Loke Thye Kee was once the choice venue of family gatherings. It was also famous as the teahouse for matchmaking, providing the backdrop for the not-so-subtle introductions of couples-to-be. Today, Loke Thye Kee will be restored to its former glory, providing a comfortable rest stop for both the familiar Penang-ite as well as the hungry traveler seeking to taste a piece of Penang Heritage.
