When Queenie is in the town- Part I - Ipoh Trip

My Hong Kong colleague, Queenie was in town last two weeks.
Other than office hour, I am really filled her time with all foods!!
This is not only her 'makan' trip but so do I! Sigh...I really put lots weight on this period.

On 16 September, it was Malaysia public holiday. We decided to bring her out of town heading to Ipoh for food hunting. It is a fun day trip as we are total of 7 persons is laughing all the way from Penang to Ipoh and back. The credits definitely goes to our Ms Ham Ham-> Elaine on her hokkien style cantonese. We have a great day!

Our first station is definitely for Ipoh Dim Sum. Of cause Hong Kong is famous on dim sum but we would like to let Queenie try out our Malaysian style dim sum. This time we brought her to Ming Court Dim Sum instead of Foh San as we feel Foh San has deteriorated lately.

The crowds

Queenie told me she seldom eat 'har gao' (prawn dumpling) in Hong Kong as there is one kind of taste due to most of the prawn there is frozen type. She just loves our version as it taste good. I am glad she loves it!

This order is upon DawChin request as he told us he never try Zhi Ma Wu for his past 25 years!

After the brunch, while we are waiting for the food to digest, we brought her to buy some local souvenir and visiting two caves in Ipoh. End up we as local bought more souvenir than her! After two hours of break, we continue with the Ipoh most famous 'gar choy kai' aka sprout chicken. She loves the 'gay choy' very much. So do I. ^^

Come to Ipoh, definitely couldn't skip the white coffee! hmmm.......



Another thing we have to bring back is definitely the Salted Chicken! Must buy from here instead of others!
