Sidewalk Ice-Cream Lounge

Cuisines Dessert
Business Hour 7.30pm onwards daily

Sidewalk is a fascinating place indeed. Amidst the intense challenge from newcomers, they have stood their grounds and proved that there IS still a market for a no-frills, classic ice-cream lounge.

Nyonya Kitchen

Cuisines Nyonya
Business Hour 10am – 10pm

A very daring strategy to name their establishment, as the very self-explanatory name will no doubt generate much interest among Nyonya food lovers in Ipoh; OR incurs their wrath depending on how they perform in delivering their promise of dishing up authentic Nyonya feast.

Ah Ping Bak Kut Teh

Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour Opens for Lunch and Dinner.

The soup of the BKT, was very thick and flavorful, perhaps because it had been boiling all day. The vege was not bad. Sold out very fast. So be there early to avoid disappointment.

For me? Good enough on a cold, rainy evening. Plus, the advantage of fairly ample parking spots around the vicinity and shorter distance to home made Ah Ping one of the top choices when I crave for BKT in a jiffy around PJ-Subang area.

Snowdream

Cuisines Dessert
Business Hour 12pm – 11pm everyday, except Friday and Saturday where they open until 12am.

Tastewise, not too shabby but a bit sweeter than the ones served at Snowflakes.

Teo Chiew Restaurant

Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour 10am – 2.30pm, 5pm – 12am Closed on Tuesdays

Pretty reasonable given the quality of the dishes served and the scarcity of some of those. The service was very pleasant too, with the owner himself walking over and starting up a lengthy conversation, and even the ladies serving us were rather courteous.

The environment was airy, with sufficient breathing and arm space between seats, and a more comfortable lighting and ambience compared to Nam Chau’s.

Kedai Kopi First Kwong Chow

Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour Tue - Sun: 2.30 pm until finishes (usually an hour) (Closed on Mondays)

The roast pork was good. Better than most stalls out there, I believe. Yet, I could not help but feel that the quality has dwindled compared to the time when I had these at the hawker fest.

Hakka Rang Restaurant

4
Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour 12 pm - 3 pm, 6 pm - 10 pm and closed on Mondays

Parking is relatively easy to find here and the best part is that it is still free. Don't know how long that will be so though. The furnishing of the restaurant is quite old school with wooden tables and chairs, even the tea sets are old school. Food wise, we're talking about Hakka dishes, one of my favourite.

A little pricey given the small portions of the food served but this is in the midst of a business area; hence still considered reasonable.
