Having said that, my post begins with this....
Having nothing much to do in Ipoh, I drove up north for a short vacation in Penang.... the weather was cloudy but fine, no rain and upon reaching, I went for lunch at Little Genting in Green Lane....
Hokkien mee in Penang aka Prawn noodles in Ipoh...
It was too spicy for me, don't judge the mini size chili on the spoon...
It burns!
One coconut was definitely not enough....
Fast forward, it was evening... time to go for dinner ....
We went to a shop in Taman Perkaka....
All I can say is that it is a corner shop just behind Subaidah Restaurant....
Never thought of looking at the name of the shop...
But the food was not bad....
And we had these four dishes.... scrumptious meal which cost around RM65
plus rice and drinks....
plus rice and drinks....
Hot Leafy spinach soup....
Sweet and sour pork....
These look and tasted special...
They are beancurd balls cooked with some curry leaves and salted eggs....
And Fish cooked in Nyonya style
Here is a glimpse of the shop...
Just too bad I couldn't remember to take the name of the shop...
Hope someone can enlighten me...
It is just opposite the Wong Chao Restaurant in Taman Perkaka....
Our dinner did not end right there....
We took a drive to another place....
For some bittersweet experience!
Name or no name, never mind. Guarantee the food is good.
ReplyDeleteLike the look of the beancurd balls and fish in Nyonya style.
Different styles from IPoh...
DeleteBean curd balls, never seen those before. Sure would love to try! Didn't say how much altogether?
ReplyDeleteOh, the price is RM64...
DeleteNever mind the name because we will need you to take us there. Ha ha. The beancurd balls and Nyonya fish look delicious. Looking forward to know about your bittersweet experience.
ReplyDeletehahahaha.. Alright... going to write now.
DeleteI don't know the place but the beancurd balls cooked with some curry leaves and salted egg sure look tasty. I know where Wong Chao Restaurant in Taman Perkaka so the next time I go to Penang maybe I will look for this restaurant.
ReplyDeleteIt is just opposite the restaurant..... sure can find it...
DeleteAll the foods are so tempting...
ReplyDeleteAppetizing ...
Deletehah..hah...mystery shop :D
ReplyDeleteNot professional enough.. me!
Delete"The corner shop just behind Subaidah" is an appropriate Penangite restaurant name hahaha. Usually it is the actual name of the place that people won't know :P
ReplyDeleteBut ar... I don't think I've been to this one before. Maybe that's why I don't know. "Zhu char" in that area (Sg Dua), usually I will go to Kim Hin, it is located beside a motorbike shack between Tesco Extra and that row of shops with Pizza Hut and McD. But we don't call it Kim Hin, we will say "Let's go to Paul's", because Paul is the guy who sell drinks there.
Also there's a pretty nice place on the same row as Sg Nibong Public Bank. Don't know the name also, we call it "fu kua chao dan" (bitter gourd fried egg) because they do that dish very well there.
And ah, the dim sum shop at Elit, they do dishes at night too, pretty decent too with air-cond.
