Food adventure in Ipoh

Famous for Ipoh Sar Ho Fun and pork satay, pork intestine  & pork liver. This place is always crowded and is worth  waiting.
You should try their caramel  custard and is only RM2.60

Thean Chun Restaurant
73, Jalan Bandar Timah,31650 Ipoh, Perak

I recommend  another nice place for claypot crab glass noodles where you can't find it in KL.  The restaurant  known as Different Taste at Bercham.
Do try their otak otak, steam lala and fried fish @ sa chui.

The Banjaran, Wellness Spa and Retreat, Tambun, Ipoh

The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat is only 15 mins away from Ipoh. Less than 5 minutes drive from Lost World of Tambun. I am glad that I was invited for a tour at The Banjaran Hotsprings. You could not imagine we had such a beautiful limestone’s, natural landscapes, surrounded by bodies of geothermal hot springs around the villas. You do not need to go overseas to enjoy such a magnificent view.

No words can describe this place. Pictures speak a thousand words. For more information of the Banjaran, do visit their web site at http://www.thebanjaran.com/

Inside the villa

Jeff's cellar - must visit.  You cannot imagine that a limestone cave can transform into a wine cellar. Jeff's cellar is open to resort guest.



Treasures in a pot @"Pun Choy" at Ipoh / Places to eat

 You must try the Treasures in a pot @"Pun choy" or big bowl feast which is served in a big metal bowl. You can find prawns, roast duck, mushroom, scallop, sea cucumber, vegetable, fish maw and etc in one big bowl. You got to eat it one layer at a time. Pun Choy always cook with radish.
The radish and white cabbage is always serve at the bottom of the bowl to absorb all the flavours from the ingredients. The meat are serve on top.
You must try the pun choy at Ipoh for the price of RM298 inclusive lotus leaves fried rice and dessert.

We order the crab fried rice and it was delicious. The crabs flavours are all in the rice. You can't find this in Kuala Lumpur.

We got 12 person and we can't even finish the pun choy and in fact is for 10 pax. I'm not kidding you!!

Advance booking is required, at least few days.
