Ipoh Ipoh

 Thu 29.apr.21 was a public holiday. We went to PJ on an errand and he read about a delicious kai see hor fun so we went to try it making it my dine-in-2021 #4 since we are in the vicinity.

11.13 am Thu 29.apr.21 Jumbo kai see hor fun which includes a chicken leg; cold white coffee, and chee Cheong fun with 3 sauces: mushroom sauce, sweet sauce and ipoh chili sauce.

This photo just replaced the ccf with fruit Rojak. Total bill is MYR 33 nett.

11.26 am - my portion of kai see hor fun. The broth is thick and flavourful.

Then we saw this display wall and it reminded us of Oh Ipoh Cafe in Esplanad, Bukit Jalil which is now no longer there so we asked the staff and they say yes their boss has an eatery in Esplanad before so I guess the Esplanad eatery was closed to open this Ipoh Ipoh Cafe in PJ some time around early 2020.

All tables are occupied and we waited for about 10 minutes to get a table right at the entrance. This eatery has air conditioning but with an entrance as wide as the shop's width so you can say it doesn't have a door or the dining area is an open air space with free flow of air from outside to inside and vice versa. We ate for 30 mins and quickly went on our way. I know we are taking a risk so we are counting our 14 days from this date. We see many elderly folks dining in this eatery too.

Ipoh Ipoh eatery in SS2, PJ, located on the same row as Chow Yang coffee shop.

We ordered C04 Jumbo at MYR 14.50 nett.

E05 CCF with 3 sauces at MYR 7.50 nett.

Cold white coffee at MYR 4.50 nett.

Small portion of fruit Rojak at MYR 6.50 nett.

Decades Cafe

They served us a complimentary plate of chee cheong fun and chee cheong fun with fillings for us to try once we were seated. Such good service. We were at Decades Cafe after noticing it last weekend when we ate at Little Jungle Coffee House.

I have eaten this tasty ccf at Hai Keng many times so I am happy that they are available at more places now.

They are freshly made too.

Stir fried ccf at MYR 7 nett. Good wok hei, so tasty! The ccf is soft so I like it even more. Very crispy bean curd sheets.

Combo Set 2 at MYR 6.90 nett with soya ccf and white coffee. My friend could taste soya in the ccf but I could not.

My barli bean curd sweet dessert broth at MYR 3.50 nett.

Total bill for 2 pax is MYR 17.40 nett.

Nice clean interior.

Two types of combo sets.

No preservatives!

Will try the original ccf next time.

No to charcoal ccf from me. The Jicama chee cheong fun that we were given to try has jicama fillings that are a little too sweet for me.

I will try the ccf with curry chicken next time.

Will try these combination too.

Won't try the tomato chili sauce.

Various coffee drinks.

Lemongrass tea and Homemade Soya Milk at MYR 2.50 nett each.

More drinks.

Will try peanut soup and Lo Mai Kai one day.

Close on Tuesday, opens early at 7.30 am.

WG Curry Snack

Snack for lunch - Curry Chee Cheong Fun (flat rice noodles) with pork slices, potatoes and beancurd puffs (tofu pok) at MYR 10.90++ (10% service charge and 6% SST so total is MYR 12.64 nett) at Oriental Cravings, One Utama.

The chee cheong fun was hidden under the potatoes and beancurd puffs. As this was a snack portion, I was able to finish it on my own but was quite full after that.

I ordered item 64 iii). Perhaps I could have it with toast next time but I don't think it will taste as good as curry eaten with chee cheong fun. Usually at this place, I would order the Chicken & Wine Mee Suah dish but only if there is someone to share it with me.

Total price for 3 pax is MYR 52.75 nett.

Storefront of Oriental Cravings, One Utama.

Jicama rolls

I noticed a neighbourhood stall selling rolled chee cheong fun (flat rice noodles) at MYR1.50 nett for 1 roll so I bought 2 rolls.

The rolled chee cheong fun is filled with jicama aka yam bean (sengkuang) stir-fried with dried shrimps. Very flavourful indeed.

MYR2

For MYR2, I could only buy a piece of chee cheong fun (kosong) from a stall in Friendship Cafe. Back in 2014, the price is only MYR1.60 per piece. Not much nutritional value (just carb and sugar) but it does keep me full for at least 2 hours.

Not long enough

Back in April this year (2016), I thought that it would be a very, very long time before we eat at House of Fishball, Sri Petaling again but I was wrong. On early morning, we had some errands to run nearby so we ate at this eatery again as it was the closest eatery around that was opened at that time.

I ordered a plate of stir fried chee cheong fun (MYR7 nett) and it was too oily for my liking. The bowl of hot barley bean curd sheets ginkgo (MYR3.50 nett) was not that sweet so it was fine for me. Guess we will only be back here if we have no other choices available to us.

Hai Keng

Chee Cheong Fun (Glutinous rice flour rolls) at MYR2.80 nett.

At Hai Keng coffee shop, PJ (near Digital Mall and Jaya)

Lam Mee at MYR7 nett which we always order when we eat at this place.

Dear CCF

Because I can't get enough of cendol when I was in Penang, I ordered cendol in KL with more ice and chee cheong fun (rolled up rice noodle) with the prawn paste sauce to be served separately to share between the two of us. Then they forgot to give me additional ice (foc) in the cendol so they served the extra ice in a separate bowl.

 Chee Cheong Fun (rolled up rice noodles) in Penang style with prawn paste sauce and sesame seeds.

Both the items cost the same each at MYR6.50 nett. A much higher price than eating at road side hawker stalls but then for convenience and comfort sake, they are worth it.

Many stalls

This was my favourite ABC (Ais Batu Campur - Mixed Ice) 20 years ago and still taste good - MYR3.30 nett a bowl/glass. This is one of the very rare occasion where I did not eat early dinner due to meeting up with a friend at night. It has been almost quite a number of years that I have not been to this place.

Char Kway Teow mixed with yellow noodle - MYR5.50 nett.

Hong Kong Chee Cheong Fun with BBQ pork (char siew) and prawns - MYR5.50 nett.

Stall 37 for the char kway teow

Stall 36 for the Hong Kong Chee Cheong Fun

Food court at night

Familiar?

The famous SS2, PJ night food court.

The ABC stall is stall 41, the first stall on the right with the red board signboard.

On another visit, we ordered two glasses of ABC and HK CCF again.

The HK CCF is smooth and tasty but has too much unnecessary gravy.
