Food, glorious food!


I got me my very first tag from Giddy Tiger, and it's all about food. Yum! *drool, slurp* Now I could go on and on about what I like but there's a catch... I can only talk about one kind of food. What to pick? What to choose? I'm going to go outstation with this one, but with a local location twist. Sounds intriguing, yeah?

Say hello to the best Ipoh Chicken Rice ever. Think of smooth, white steamed chicken with a light drizzle of soy sauce on steaming flavorful rice accompanied with crunchy authentic Ipoh bean sprouts and wonderful fishballs in soup... Mmm... One of my favorite weekend foods, my family and I visit this stall hidden in Bukit Rahman Putra about once every two weeks for a fix. I've brought people here before who can't stop thinking about the chicken for weeks after. *grin* Funny how I prefer this stall in KL over the 'real' Ipoh chicken rice stalls in Ipoh itself. If you're a true blue Ipoh purist, try the chicken with 'hor fun' or noodles instead of rice.

Aiyo! I so regretted so much for not taking pics during dinner last night. I was in PJ New Town (near A&W area) open carpark area... the food was SUPERB! We order la-la, crabs (butter and cheese flavor - dem huge summore), noodles, omg.. definitely going back there again! It would've been a great write up that make ppl salivate... ;p

I'm gonna take some time to do this one.. wait til I got inspiration and materials 1st ok? Haha.. Thanks for the tag :p

Being an Ipoh girl myself, I simply must say that that picture of "kai-fun" has got me drooling! Now, where's my bib?

My stomach is growling now, even though I just had lunch...
