Ipoh Mali!!

I recently went to Ipoh for a daytrip of makan-ing and sight seeing with my sister and her friend. We met up with my friend there, who became our guide.

I'm too lazy to blog with words today> i'll give short notes about the picutres. After all, a picture speaks a thousand words, no? ;-p



This is known as the Concubine street. Those day, the ladies would be on the 1st floor balcony calling out at men that walk past.




Still hanging clothes the old skool way, with a bamboo pole



We love these old signboards!!



Our 1st stop for food, Egg custard!!


Next was Ipoh Chicken rice / hor fun

After that it was the very famous and delicious Funny Mountain Tau Foo Fah!! The best part has to be the drive thru service ;-)

Next, it was on to the old train station of Ipoh

This place still retains its old world charm

This is a emo place, where people say their goodbyes


Place where ppl come and go



Next, we went to the Majestic Hotel, located at the train station itself. Here is the old skool elevator!!

The cage of the old skool elevator

Then its Nam Heong coffeeshop for White Coffee and egg tarts



The making of egg tarts

Since we had plenty of time to kill, we headed to my favourite waterfall, Buntong Falls



Nice place for a chit chat while enjoying natures sounds



THen it was back to 2nd round of Tau Foo fah, but along the way, we bought the famous salt baked chicked as well as the Famous Heong Pneah from Gunung Rapat


Yes they close when they sell out everyday. And that is soon!



Michelle Yeoh's Mansion in Ipoh. Was told that her mom likes to swim in the pool only in her birthday suit -.-"




Our last visit before going home, Laluan Harimau, where the rich and famous of Ipoh live
Boodyboy, out!!!
