During our recent roadtrip, the humans, being typical Chinese, decided to try out the dim sum in Ipoh. Now, mention Ipoh and a few mouth-watering food immediately comes to mind e.g. Ipoh hor fun, Ipoh chicken rice, Ipoh white coffee, ... but dim sum was definitely not in the list. Or so the humans thought.
Equipped with just an iPad where Google told them to look for a place called Foh San, the humans drove to Jalan Leong Sin Nam, which we later discovered to be the 'Dim Sum Street' of Ipoh.
Upon arrival, the humans' expressions were nothing short of (O_O) as they've never seen such a huge place just for dim sum.
This is the entrance. The place looked amazing. Since it was very packed on a Sunday, we were lucky to secure a seat upstairs at the 2nd Floor.
Under hot weather, drink something mild and pleasant, like the Chrysanthemum tea.
Delicious beef ramen with juicy and tender meat in tasty broth.
There are many choices of dim sum to choose from, all reasonably priced.
Instead of the usual trolleys, customers will have to go over to the dim sum stations and choose their dim sum from there.
Mango pudding. This is too sweet for my liking.
Then there's this egg custard thingy which has a hint of ginger in it. Loved it. Seriously, HOW DID THEY MAKE IT SO SMOOTH?!
To (dim) sum it up, yes, we'll definitely come back again. But no, don't come here around noon time or you will be melting while you eat! There's no aircond in this place hence the afternoon heat can be unbearable at times (O_O") It's so hot that if you break an egg on the road, I believe it will cook into a perfect sunny side up.
