Ipoh Dimsum Part II

Posted Sunday, July 25th, 2010

Ask anyone on where to have dimsum and they’ll recommend you on the famous, high-class dim sum restaurant, Foh San. However, the people of Ipoh themselves would recommend on other restaurant like Ming Court or Yoke Fook Moon. Indecisive on which one to go, we decided to head to Yoke Fook Moon first, before going for Foh San. We wanted to go for the 3rd choice (Ming Court) but our stomach were beyond full after entering Foh San.

Cut all the crap, let me show you the dimsum from Foh San!

The siumai looked pale compared to the one I had in Yoke Fook Moon and Chaw Choon (the famous dimsum restaurant in Butterworth) but tastewise it’s almost the same. Same ingredient mah. Lol.

Mmm~ Delicious but somehow it’s a little bit salty for me. The dimsum I’m going to show you next are the more creative ones. The fried pancake with black pepper sauce and beehive lou mai kai (sticky glutinous rice with chicken wrapped with pao skin).

The 3 sauce chee-cheong fun is yummylicious! But one can’t eat this too much, or else will feel jelak. Go in big group where you can taste many types of dimsum in small serving. That way, the dimsum taste will be memorable and one somehow craved for it. Like how I crave for the honeydew glazed popiah. Lol

It was super packed that day. We had to wait more than 30 minutes for a table because everyone was taking their own sweet time drinking tea even after finishing all the dimsum. The worst thing is, the table we waited for more than 30 minutes almost being ‘snatched’ by an aunty who only waited like 5 minutes there. Realising that the people at the next table ate quicker, that aunty suddenly moved to the back, turned her body and waited for that table instead. And the funny thing was, she suddenly talked to the people at that table and then sat on the empty chair like she knows them for ages. And that’s how she got a table for her family.

My sister and I were like wtfish!? New method of getting a place? Lol!

I took the picture after nom-noming halfway. Even at 11 something in the morning, people would still coming in. It made me wonder if they’re there for breakfast or brunch or lunch?

I especially love the dessert above. Cold, honeydew sauce glazed over popiah skin with chicken floss and cucumber filling. Mm~ I have the urge of having that again. T_T

Besides the sweet honeydew popiah savoury, we have two other desserts. Milk custard and fruit jelly.

By the time we finished up the jelly, everyone waved white flag and decided not to noms anymore. But since I’ve made a long list of must-eat, I told them no matter what, the food-hunt must ‘go’ on. Lol. Reluctantly they agreed and off we went to the next destination that I’ll feature in the next post. :)
