Up & Up Restaurant

Top 500 Restaurants in Perak
Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour 11am – 10pm No off-days yet.

Still, a meal for three came to about MYR102, including a serving of curry fish head, sambal petai with prawns, bean sprouts salted fish and choy pou (preserved radish) with dried shrimps omelette, steamed rice and Chinese tea, relatively acceptable but no doubt more premium that the average ‘dai chow’ restaurants.

Business Hour From morning until late afternoon. Closed on Tuesdays.

This coffee shop opens early in the morning and closes after lunch. There are only a handful of hawker stalls here, but what they offer is quality cooking.

The Mugshot Cafe

Top 500 Restaurants in Penang
Cuisines Western Cafe Halal
Business Hour Mon - Sun: 8:00 am - 12:00 am

Fresh coffee, hand-crafted juices, homemade yogurt, and the best bagels in George Town.

The Mugshot Café does not offer a severely extensive food menu, which can be a blessing in disguise to stand out from the rest.

Kheng Pin Cafe 群賓茶餐室

Top 50 Restaurants in Penang
Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour 7am - 3pm (Closed on Monday) Only opens during breakfast and lunch.

You can find different types of hawker food there like Char Koay Teow, Loh Bak, Yu Sang Kai Chok (Porridge), Chicken rice and others. Kheng Pin café is an old style café where you will still find those old fashioned marble tables and wooden chairs.

The wanton noodles at Kheng Pin cafe is another viable option you could go with, in case devouring greasy, fried foods in the early hours of the day just did not sound so appetizing

Ong Cheng Huat Seafood 王清发海鲜

Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour 11am - 5.30pm (Closed on Monday)

It's a popular place to dine out for its specialty dishes. More and more people visiting to this place after it appeared in Taste With Jason.

The restaurant has this very similar set up to Sitiawan seafood restaurants; vast seating capacity with round tables that can fit an extended family comfortably, high ceiling to generate a sense of space and airiness (you definitely need the latter, as there is no air-conditioning here), and selection of simple Chinese cooking (only a few dishes available daily, I will go more into that later) served with a refreshing albeit slightly intoxicating coconut wine or toddy.

Ang Hoay Lor

Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour open for lunch (12–3pm) and dinner (6–9 pm) daily except Wednesdays.

The ambience was an unmistakably retro one; not manufactured like the many retro-fitted boutique cafes in town but the real deal.

Menglembu “Wai Sek Kai”

Cuisines Chinese

Most of the stall at Menglembu Wai Sek Kai do not have a signboard in English indicating what they are selling, so you’d do best by being nosy and observe what they are serving, or ask around.

Ah Loi Restaurant

Top 500 Restaurants in Perak
Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour Opens from 4.30 pm onwards, until about 10.30pm Off-days not fixed.

At Ah Loi, there was absolutely no gap to fill, the crunch in every spoonful of the sprouts was relished, reigniting every ounce of magical memories of growing up eating bean sprouts (or sometime better known as ‘taugeh’) from Ipoh.

Basileou Salad

Top 500 Restaurants in Perak
Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour 11am – 10pm, closed Mondays

Nevertheless, acknowledgements need to be credited where they are due, and I do think that Basileou is doing a fair job in an attempt to transform the Ipoh’s eating landscape with more greens in our diet and lighter bites devised for quick, power lunch.

Keng Nam Coffee Shop

Top 100 Restaurants in Perak
Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour Opens from breakfast until lunch only

The coconut and egg jam has quite an intense fragrance from the screw pine leaves (pandan) and just the right level of sweetness that leaves one craving for seconds after mopping up a plate in record time.

Tea And Tattle

Top 500 Restaurants in Perak
Cuisines Western
Business Hour Opens daily from 8 am to 12 am

We enjoyed their signature “1896” from the black tea selection; a rich, flavourful cup combining fruity notes of white peach, cinnamon, and gala apples, with a crisp floral finish.
