Sun Wen Cau Restaurant

Top 500 Restaurants in Perak
Cuisines Chinese

Well, in terms of fresh seafood, can’t deny that Sun Wen Cau’s supplies were as fresh as they came. Just that, some of their rendition of common dishes lacked imagination and well, perfection.

Vanity Haus Boutique Cafe

After all, there are not many cafes around that opens during the odd hours (in between meals), serve really home cooked fares and prices that won’t set your pocket on fire.

Bougainvillea City Cafe

Top 500 Restaurants in Perak
Cuisines Western
Business Hour Opens from 12 pm – 10 pm, closed on Tuesdays

All in all, the lunch at BCC was a mighty satisfying affair in my books; about RM100 for the 3 of us. We had no rooms for desserts there after, especially when I had to continue the cafe hop throughout the day. But their Tiramisu, Napolean and Crepe Cakes sounded like pretty fascinating affairs.

Something’s Brewing

Business Hour Open from 1pm to 11pm from Sunday to Thursday, and 1pm to 12am Friday, Saturday

Good Morning Ipoh! ... On this trail of balancing out the sins of homemade snacks with lighter stuff; the roasted summer vegetables in olive oil appeared to be a smart, beautiful and delicious choice.

Ben & Lynette

Cuisines Western
Business Hour 9am – 12.30am daily

A quirky, vintage or modern contemporary ambience can only get you so far in roping in new customers, but staying power should always be measured from a point of substance and service.

Artisan Roast Coffee

Cuisines Western Cafe
Business Hour Open daily 8am-12am

All in all, Artisan Roast could be a heaven-sent option on my caffeine-deprived days, or just when I needed a shot the most. And the temptation factor grows a notch no thanks to the close proximity of my current office and this cafe.

Business Hour Daily from 8.30am – 11.00pm

In the case of VCR, it could have been a (lethal) combination of all. It’s either the coffee, the ambience or the company.

Tray Cafe

Business Hour 10am-5pm daily, except Tuesdays

Service was so-so, surprisingly. Nevertheless, this will be a cafe that I won’t mind returning to again; for the imaginative salads and quiches, and of course… the cakes and cookies.
