This particular day started with a lovely morning.
Sunrise at 7:08am
Sunrise at 7:10am
It has been a while since we last ate Kopisan Lai Fun or white noodle, so we drove out to Jalan Centrepoint 2, Taman Hoover, Ipoh.
These are our favourite deep fried items.
These are fish balls, stuffed tofu and fish cakes.
Plain rice noodle or lai fun in clear soup with beansprout and toasted sesame seeds.
This is a must have chili sauce as dipping sauce.
A satisfying breakfast for 2 people.

The following photos were from one of our visits to the Antong Coffee Mill in Taiping before the pandemic.
Traditional way of cooking the caramel for frying the coffee beans.
At the coffee mill.

A worker watching over the process.
This is all done in the old traditional ways, not like those using modern machinery and everything looking spick and span. This is the oldest coffee mill and it was founded in 1933 and is now managed by the 3rd generation of the family.
Let everyone in all the world - men, women, and children -
fear the Lord and stand in awe of him.
For when he but spoke, the world began!
It appeared at his command!
And with a breath he can scatter the plans of all the nations
who oppose him, but his own plan stands forever.
His intentions are the same for every generation.
(Psalm 33:8-11, The Living Bible-TLB)
The sunrise is beautiful. I have never heard of caramel fried coffee beans.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ginny.
Deletei like the breakfast of soupy noodles and stuffed 'liews'...such a comfy food!
ReplyDeleteYes, I really enjoyed this breakfast.
DeleteSuch a delicious and satisfying breakfast!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Angie.
DeleteOh? So this is called lai fun. If I am not wrong we call it "ngiau chu boi" or Rat's tail here. The chili sauce looks good!
ReplyDeleteSorry, this is not the rat's tail noodle. The rat's tail noodle has tapering ends. Lai fun doesn't has tapering ends.
DeleteNice sky shoots :) thanks for your sharing...
ReplyDeleteThank you and have a nice day.
DeleteNice noddles❤
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kinga.
DeleteHello Nancy,:=) Beautiful early morning skies, and hearty delicious breakfast.
ReplyDeleteThe old traditions are unfortunately dyeing out, it's nice that this family business is still producing coffee.
Thank you, Breathtaking. The coffee mill is still enjoying good business and also serves as a tourist place.
DeleteThis rice Noodle at Kopisan Lai Fun is really good to eat For Breakfast because it is light but filling. Did u buy any back home to eat later?
