FOOD TRAIL
Ipoh is a city in northwestern Malaysia, known as a gateway to the Cameron Highlands hill station.
According to Lonely Planet, Ipoh is the ‘lesser known food capital’ in Malaysia. With food courts, local restaurants and hawker stalls serving the same recipes for decades, any foodie is sure to have a divine culinary experience. Try the bean sprout chicken, gai si hor fun (shredded chicken noodles) and the regional favourite Ipoh White Coffee.

The texture of Funny Mountain’s tau fu fah is extremely soft – so soft that it literally melts in your mouth effortlessly. It almost felt like drinking instead of eating.

Aun Kheng Lim Salted Chicken
This salted chicken has a following of its own. Succulent and infused with the fragrance of Chinese herbs and angelica, this bird is not overwhelmingly salty and is best eaten with plain rice or on its own. This place even sells the chicken in a vaccuum pack which also makes this the perfect souvenir for tourists or people from other states!​
Pak Kong Chicken Rice
Pak Kong Chicken Rice is one of the lesser-known chicken rice and bean sprouts stalls in Ipoh.
