Shall take a break from my usual KL/PJ eateries reviews and post something related to my hometown today. I have been extremely lazy to go out eat when I go back to Ipoh, usually will just cook instant noodle for lunch, nibble on bread and buns and enjoy mom’s cooking for dinner. Hence, that explains my lack of post on Ipoh. Maybe I should change my blog name.

I remember that CityGal mentioned about “snow beer” in Ipoh before and when my friend say “Let’s go for snow beer”, I just say, “Okay”. I’m not fond of alcohols by the way. ^^

When I start to write this post, then only I realised… “What snow beer?? I didn’t even post up the picture of it!” (Err… what am I thinking actually? *sigh*) So, no picture of the beer itself but just to let you know that they chill the beer glass and when the beer is poured in it, it forms a smooth foam on the top. Interesting.

The usual fried yee mee with prawns, pork slices and choy sum (sweet mustard?) Another interesting stuff about this place is… the waiter/waitress uses PDA as substitute to pen and paper to record down your orders. Talking about high tech eh?

Salt and pepper mantis prawns. I usually love them done the “kam heong” style but this is equally good too. This is perhaps the best dish for the night.

Stir-fry escargots in kam heong style. The meat were kinda tough and rubbery, which I don’t quite like. It also lacked the wok hei (breath of wok) too.

We also ordered some chicken satay from the stall across the street which I think were pretty okay but my friends commented that the chicken meat tastes weird. Hmmmm….?

Kafe Yoon Wah & Kafe Sun Yoon Wah (across the street)
Jalan Bijih Timah, Ipoh Old Town

Directions: After cross the bridge of Kinta River, turn right into Jalan Bandar Timah. Pass Kong Heng and Thean Chun on your left and turn right again. Go till the end of the street, turn right and you see a piece of empty land use for car park. Pass the car park and you’ll see the shop.
