There’s quite a good selection of favourites at Ipoh Ipoh and I want to have them all but somehow when I go there, I just want their Chee Cheong Fun, haha! Served truly Ipoh-style with the signature red sauce, chilli sauce and pickled chillies, this is something I always crave. Although not as perfect as the best I get in … [Read more...]

Their repertoire of dishes are mainly the kind of comfort food served in local “dai chow” and Chinese restaurants, as what we found out and we’ve been dining here a few times. A favourite among many is their Stir-fried Sang Cheong with Dried Prawns & Chilli Padi. Essentially piggy … [Read more...]

Dining-out at CHYNNA, Hilton Kuala Lumpur
With some of the lockdown restrictions being slowly lifted as the community moves on to the next recovery phase, dining out is now allowed.

I am selective when it comes to dining-out now, even as we move on to the pandemic recovery phase and resuming as normal a life as can be. I will only visit places which I know will strictly enforce … [Read more...]
