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

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.

PT Grande Cafe

Cuisines Western
Business Hour 11am – 9pm daily

To sum up the experience at PT Grande, I would definitely return for the pastas and cakes, though I would love to try their take on risottos; an even trickier dish to master.

Chow Kiat Klang Bak Kut Teh

Cuisines Chinese

The soup was heavily-infused with flavours from the herbs; yet with a balance of savoury tinge and a very faint nuance of sweetness.

Hung Wang Eating Shop 漢元餐室

Top 50 Restaurants in Perak
Business Hour Closed on Thursdays. Opens from 11am until 4pm.

Some other notable dishes here include the boiled baby octopus, duck’s offal, steamed or deep fried fishes, and of course, you must always sample a bowl of their plain rice porridge which has been cooked to a creamy consistency and placed in a giant claypot; almost resembling a huge flower pot.

Foh San Dim Sum 富山茶楼

Top 100 Restaurants in Perak
Cuisines Chinese

The ever famous Foh San dim sum is a famous haunt by tourists for some scrumptious and variety of dim sum. A little advise here, either go there as early as 7 am or as late as 11 am. Its hard to get a table during peak hour, and after you get seated bring your bill to the cart and take your own dim sum as the waitress are too busy to entertain you.

Well, there are definitely better options for dim sum in Ipoh.

Kedai Kopi Sin Yoon Loong

Top 50 Restaurants in Perak
Cuisines Local
Business Hour 7am to 6pm (Sunday Off)

A highly recommended breakfast joint, even if only for the toasts and coffee.

The white coffee used to be really excellent, probably at the hands of the proprietor when quality came first before the urgency to churn out cups after cups ala fast food style.

There are probably a dozen or more dishes to recommend to you, but trust the ladies taking your orders as they are really experienced and won’t steer you wrong.

Sum Sum Yi Fatt (3328) Restaurant

Top 500 Restaurants in Perak
Cuisines Chinese
Business Hour Opens from lunch until dinner daily.

At 3328, it seemed that they could do no wrong with their endless list of recommendations. But if you’re a first timer like myself, then try a dish cooked with their fresh snakehead fish (ikan haruan or sang yue).

Business Hour Opens for breakfast, lunch and tea time only. Not open for dinner.

Although the prices are relatively higher than the conventional hawker stalls, the trade off is worthy if you get the best of all worlds in the same compound and an ambience that does not reek of smoke, sweat and well, spit.
