St. Jo's
What would it be like to enjoy a meal in an 85-year-old building?
St. Joseph's Novitiate, built in 1925, is one of the finest examples of Penang's colonial architecture. It is also the centrepiece and inspiration for Gurney Paragon, which preserves its entire structure within the mall itself - and converts it into St. Jo's, a unique and delightfully charming place to enjoy a meal.

All this in the restored splendour of one of Penang's most beautiful historical buildings.
