Half Boiled Egg on Toast

Hi pals, as promised here is the post on the toast bread shop in Ipoh. Ban Teik and wife took us here too. Well, I was told that it is one of the pioneer of "White Coffee" shop. Yes, your original Ipoh White Coffee shop! And it really lived up to its name. The coffee is first class!!! Not too sweet... it is rich with aromatic iced coffee with milk. The toast bread spreaded with kaya and butter were crispy and sweet. Well, when you bite the toast... it is so crispy... it sounds and feels like biting into Jacob cream cracker but with a richer and sweeter taste. You know what I mean, huh! Well, if you don't, then be sure to travel to Ipoh to taste it. The shop is opened for breakfast and afternoon for tea time or more accurately coffee break.

It serves one of its unique half boiled egg on toasted bread. You know, we used to eat half boiled eggs and dip toast into it. Now, with this unique number, you need not use the extra hand muscle to dip your toast into the egg no more. And it is so easy to make... yet so delicious... I think I can get my love to make it for me at home!!

Total Costs: Again, thanks to Ban Teik and wife who treated us. Not sure how much this meal cost. But, I think you will definitely get value for your money here.

Newest Discovery in Town

Mr BBQ
























I would like to share with you my latest discovery in Taiping. As any of the 98% of food lovers in the world, I share the same passion for good seafood meal. So, after not returning to Taiping for close to two years, I yearn for all the good food in town. However, my father highly recommended that I return to Mr BBQ who had just moved to a new venue. It has recently moved from its original shabby hut to a nicely renovated restaurant. The good news is, prices of its food did not increase regardless of a better upgraded premise. Kudos to the owners for that. Just looking and remembering the food I took make me drool. I ordered the following dishes, enjoyed a sumptuos meal and paid a very reasonable price for these:

1) Kew Gei Vegetable Soup

Kew Gei vegetable, carrot, prawn, beaten egg, sharlot and ginger. This hot gingery soup was really refreshing and great to boost up my tired body.

2) My Big Time favourite food: Lala(Clams) Kam Heong

Freshly clams are being stir fried with curry leaves, onions, dried shrimp and chilli.

3) Sambal Kangkong (Fried Water Convolvulus with Sambal)

The kangkong does not just taste fragrant, the owner even found its English word for kangkong. The dish was fragrant and spicy with sambal dried prawns.

4) Fried Chicken with Curry Powder

This is an interesting dish, where the marinated the chicken with curry powder and fried them with big onion.

5) Sambal Stingray

The stingray was grilled with lots of chilli and accompanied by preserved onion.

6) Accompanied by one plate of white rice, Ipoh white coffee ice and Lime Juice with Plum.

Total Costs: RM40.10

The pictures look good, don't they! The taste of the food is even much better. Well, you have to taste it to believe it for yourself!
