Custard Bun, Dim Sum, ipoh, Restaurant Yoke Fook Moon

Since our friends were so excited about getting supper to bring back to the hotel, we obediently followed them. We went to Yoke Fook Moon to grab some custard bun and steam fish balls. (Surprisingly, there were quite a few people tapauing too)

The custard bun was actually quite good. The fish ball was so-so. No pictures took as I was already half asleep and tired from the long drive up from KL.

We all went back to our room and I finally get to shut my eyes at about 12am. I was excited about our early breakfast tomorrow.

** I manage to snap a picture of the restaurant the next morning as we were heading to have our dim sum at Foh San (next door).

Assam Mah Yau, ipoh, Pork Trotter, Sin Hup Kee Restaurant

Right after we finish our meal at Kafe Wah Name, we decided to take a stroll to the restaurant which we plan to go for our dinner. The reason is because we were worry that it might be pack considering that it was still during Chinese New Year.

Instead of just making our reservation, we also placed our dinner orders with them then. That way, they have time to prepare some of the food which takes time to cook.

We head back to our hotel (which was about 4pm) and rest abit. Around 6:00pm, we walked there and was so glad that we made reservation earlier. The place was packed like crazy and it has 2 levels !!! Luckily we were served within 10-15 minutes.

We tried their famous Spicy and sour Stew Pork Trotter. It was ok. I didn’t really like it as the fat skin was freaking me out. But, hub and mom claim that the fat was really nice as it melts in the mouth and doesn’t feel fatty at all. So, I will have to take their word for it.

Love the Stir Fry Vegetable. Both of the veges are pack with ‘wok-hei’ (wok-taste which is usually achievable with cooked very fast and very high heat).

 

The Assam Mah Yau (Fish) was amazing. The assam-ness was just right. It was not too overpowering and manage to retain the fish’s original taste. Not to mention, the fish was really fresh !!! yummmz… it was seriously appetizing.

The restaurant operating hours are surprising long. Perhaps it normal in Ipoh. Most place in KL starts dinner around 6pm. I can’t imagine having dinner at 5pm !!! Can you?

Hub and I was so full after the dinner. The portions they serve are really generous and price is really reasonable (I think it’s cheap !!! But, according to our friends, it’s normal ipoh price).

When our friends insisted on making another stop to ‘tapau’ supper, we were horrified !!! hahahaa… but we went along.

Chee Cheung Fun, ipoh, Kafe Wah Nam, Popiah, Yong Tau Foo

Our first food-stop in Ipoh is kafe Wah Nam. We were really hungry and decided to head to somewhere close to where we were staying. It’s at the corner of Jalan Raja Ekram and Jalan Leong Sin Nam. (Opposite Foh San Restaurant – Dim Sum)

We reach the cafe at about 2:30pm and it is super pack with humans !!! I was a tad bit shock since most of lunch crowd would have dispersed by then (if we are in KL).

Good thing mom was pretty good at finding a spot for us to settle down. After that, we all ran different direction ordering food we want to try. So hungry !

We had popiah which was really good. The fillings are very nice and juicy but not wet. I hate wet popiahs. The only thing which I find interesting is thatIpohspread the sweet and spicy sauce all over the top of the popiah (interesting).

I ordered the Chee Cheung Fun and everyone agreed that it was fantastic. The texture is super smooth and has a really nice chewy consistency. The sauce was a bit sweet but it seems to compliment the rice noodle quite well.

We had it together with some Yong Tau Foo, which was also sold by the same stall. The way they make the beancurd skin yong tau foo was really interesting to me. Most of the time in KL, the skin wrap the meat fully. I find that this method actually taste better. Perhaps it is because some of the exposed meat is also fried which makes it more aromatic.

I couldn’t resist ordering the Fried Kueh Teow. It was quite good. But, the penang duck egg was better.

On top of what I’ve mentioned above, we also had the 3 bowls of ipoh hor fun (soup noodle –  was really really yummy too) and Chicken Rice between the 5 of us !!! It was really a great start to our ipoh food journey…

I can’t wait to try other food in 3 days that we will be staying in Ipoh.
