Wanted to go to Funny Mountain, but when we reach there on Sunday 5pmish, it was either closed or already finished selling miss having their super nice tau fu far and soya bean drink.

100 photos ahead…

Gee Seng in Bukit Tambun (30km to Penang). It is located at the very end of a stretch of road in Bukit Tambun, passing by some dimly litted residential houses. We reach there 7:30pm just in time for dinner.

Next stop, Bee Hooi coffee house restaurant in Pulau Tikus

CKT stall

Fried oyster ommelette

Above is a smallest portion for RM6, satisfyingly slightly gooey and yummy big oyster

Char Kuey Tiaw, i find this just so so, not flavorful enough

Po piah, okay

Gee Seng’s boiled octopus taste much better

Presgrave Road 888 Hokkien Mee located in Heng Kee Restaurant’s compound

big slab of roast pork

Hokkien Mee with Vit’s noodle (+ noodle and all additional topping ie fish ball, roast pork, pig intestine, braised egg, pork ribs), RM8.60, very flavorful soup, must try

Our stay in Holiday Inn Batu Feringghi booked through Agoda, RM260(all taxes included) for a twin-double bed room, breakfast not included. The hotel is just next to the beach accessible from swimming pool area.

Holiday Inn Resort

Chairs next to the sandy beach

View of hotel from beach area

Don’t know what are those jelly like balls all over the beach

The Ship restaurant in Batu Ferringhi which is literally shaped as a ship just across from our hotel.

First meal: Sri Weld Food Court Nasi Lemak

in total 6 types of nasi lemak, all priced at RM1.50 per packet (chicken, fried fish, salted fish, prawn, squid)

Packing the nasi lemak

Ingredients: Prawn, Fried Fish, Egg Halves, Salted Fish, small squid and sambal

All 6 of them, tasty, the sambal is not too spicy or sweet

with squid sambal

fried fish

Salted Fish and Egg

Prawn

Walking distance away to Lam Ah Coffee Shop(junction between Beach Street and Chulia Street) for famous beef noodle soup

Beef Soup Koay Teow manned by a pretty lady boss

Beef tripe, tendons etc

Yummy soup, love the gelatinuous beef tendons, RM9 each bowl(with additions of beef tendons)

Crispy style oyster omelette (Or Chien) available in Lam Ah, find it oily

Not in picture also they serving fresh white nutmeg juice here.

We wanted to try Ah Leng Char Koay Teow in Khoon Hiang Cafe near Jalan Dato Keramat/Jalan Dunlop intersection, but it was closed on a Monday?!

Joez coconut jelly made without any additives, but the jelly is form when the jelly is baked and later cooled, and thus jelly is formed within the coconut, this jelly can be found in KL Sentral as well.

Coconut Jelly

Price list, RM4 each

Apom Guan on  Burmah Road near Union Primary School

The batter seems to be mixed with bits of shredded coconut. This pancake is topped with banana and sweet corn, very fluffy and yummy~~

Next to a school

Him Heang is just diagonally across the road from Apom Guan

Padang brown famous po piah with prawn and crab meat for only RM2.50 each

One side of this food court is filled with chinese food stalls

The other side are malay food stalls

This is the stall

We were there too early, best to be there at 2:30pm onwards else you might risk having to wait for them to bring all the ingredients here using a bicycle like vehicle. And not to come too late else their crabmeat be finished.

Crab meat and prawn!

Very yummy, there are lots of crabmeat bits in it, and the gravy which soak the po piah have crab taste, only RM2.50 each, must try

Assam laksa stall in padang brown can be skipped, not tasty

Kek Seng coffee shop along Penang Road

Kek Seng Char Koay Tiaw Stall

laksa stall

po piah stall

Table didn’t order drinks will be charge RM0.40?

love this assam laksa, sourish and very tasty

Their famous Ice Kacang ABC topped with jelly and homemade durian ice cream

After tasting padang brown’s po piah, this tasted mediocre

Char Koay Teow in Kek Seng, love this flavorful and yummy plate of noodles, must try

Wanted to try Pengkalan Weld O-Kio(Ai Yu Bing jelly) and assam laksa, but it was closed on Monday, went to this fried banana stall opposite instead

Yummy fried banana

Paya Terubong’s Te Chang You Tiao Wang, this place is near to Air Itam Assam Laksa place

menu

putting mayo into the fried chinese you tiao

From top: tuna, chicken floss and sausage. I find them not tasty, just for the “novelty” of eating really long chinese fried crullers.

We reach Ipoh on Monday night around 8pm in time for dinner in Onn Kee, as the more famous Lou Wong is closed on a Monday night, looks like quite a well restaurant we wanted to dine in are closed on Mondays or could it be some chinese festival, it is quite strange for Ipoh Dessert street to be closed on Monday as well.

Chicken feet

Fish ball and pork balls

Tuesday morning dim sum in Yoke Fook Moon in Ipoh’s dim sum street (Foh San, Ming Court and Yoke Fook Moon all in the same street)

Yummy Cheong Fun

fried cheese dumpling is just ok

Porridge

Har Kaw(Shrimp dumpling) and Siew Mai are obligatory dim sum

Fried Yam Puff

Super huge Big Pau, not nice as it is too big and too much meat(chicken and pork)

Xiao Long Bao

Yummy Fried Radish Cake, slightly gluey texture with crispy edges

Char Siew Pau (caramelised pork bun)

prawn cruller wrapped in cheong fun, surprisingly quite food

One of their specials here: fish noodle with pig stomach soup, pepperish

Beef balls are too floury

JJ Cakes & Swissrolls in Ipoh

Rows of fridge filled with all different flavors of swissrolls

even durian flavor

Price list

Tried one of their best seller: “Four Heavenly Kings” ie carrot, spinach etc filled with nutty cream cheese fillings. I find their cream cheese fillings have quite a bit of butter in it which makes it taste a bit like buttercream, would prefer the fillings to be less buttery. But if you chill the swissrolls well, the fillings will be firmer and feel less buttery

Sin Yoon Loong coffeshop for ipoh coffee and toast, above is cheong fun with mushroom sauce, just ok

Steamed Creme Caramel, cold and nice in Sin Yoon Loong coffee shop, Ipoh

All in all, we spent RM290 each (all inclusive, hotel, toll, food) for a food-packed makan trip.

Beauty10 Expo, they have a hair competition going on. The traffic inside the fair is not as congested as last year, perhaps due to them charging RM10 entrance fee. Just browsing, nothing much interesting, they have some cheap hair curlers, sheet mask, eye mask, nail polishes etc. My previus post on Beauty9 Expo

Chilis Menu, heard that Chilis in KLCC is better than other branches, so we went ahead, sure enough there is a 20-30minutes wait.

Rockin Jack Nachos with jalapeno pepper, sour cream, tomato salsa (plus extra order of  guacamole) ~ RM25, satisfying cheesy, enough to feed two.

Epicure Malaysia 2010 in Sime Darby Convention Centre. Definition of Epicure from google: a person devoted to refined sensuous enjoyment (especially good food and drink). Find the fair to be small, just like last time i went which is year 2008, and low profile, not much publicity of this fair. My previous post on Epicure Malaysia 2008
