Fried beef noodle, porridge, chicken prawn noodle & millet dumplings

There was one morning when we were looking forward to try the fried noodle at this coffee shop at the junction where Jalan Pasir Pinji and Jalan Prince meet. 

As I approached the stall to place my order, I saw that they also serve fried beef noodle. I ordered a plate of fried rice vermicelli with beef slices with egg. While we were eating the noodle, the cook came to ask our review of his fried noodle. Hubby's feedback was that it was nice but a bit salty for his taste. So next time, we will request for less salty because other customers may not have any complain.

A bowl of our favourite shredded chicken and prawn flat rice noodle (kai si hor fun).

We also ordered a small bowl of rice porridge with roasted pork bones for sharing.

This place serves good coffee at RM2.20.

Overall, we enjoyed our breakfast that morning.

This is the name of the coffee shop in Chinese.

Our simple lunch.

A friend blessed us with 2 frozen millet dumpling (bak chang with millet), vacuum packed.

They were slow steamed over medium low heat.

Millet dumpling with leaves wrapping removed.

Millet dumpling with its filling consisting of pork belly, salted egg yolk, & etc.

Thanks to our friend for these tasty dumplings.

Home cooked dinner.

Home grown white bitter gourds from our old bitter gourd vines. The vines have been producing both big and small bitter gourds.

I used all the above bitter gourds to boil soup with pork rib, carrot, goji berries, and red dates.

Omelette with home grown Chinese chives (kuchai).

Chili oil as condiment.

The above was our "no rice" dinner.

Yummy Breakfast At Poh Poh Place, Ipoh.

One Wednesday morning of last month, hubby and I, together with 2 other friends drove to Ipoh Garden East looking for Restoran Poh Poh Place. This place was recommended to me by a friend who stays in Bercham. 

Restoran Poh Poh Place - Tel: 016-5013639.

Laluan Perajurit 1, Taman Ipoh Timur.

Off day - Thursday.

It was only 8.40 am but the tables both inside the restaurant and outside were all taken. We waited for a while to get a table on the 5 foot way outside the restaurant.

The lady in red does all the cooking.

Before you can order, first go get a number and a menu will be given to you by one of the helper behind the lady in red. Just wait at your table. When your turn comes, someone will come to take your order. There were 4 of us and we each ordered different noodle to try.

Hubby ordered this Mixed Pork Offal soup noodle.

Friend A ordered another version of Pork Offal soup noodle.

Yuet Por Fun/Noodle

I couldn't decide between Tom Yam noodle or this Yuet Por noodle.

Finally Yuet Por noodle won and I am glad I ordered this.

Yuet Por Fun

This traditional egg and ginger omelette with meat and offal is cooked with fragrant sesame oil and rice wine is usually eaten by local Chinese women during the one month post-natal period. I really enjoyed this bowl of drunken soup noodle. I almost got drunk eating and finishing off all the soup so rich with rice wine.

Friend B ordered Fish Head Soup Noodle.

This was the last to be served and when it was brought to our table, it was "Wow! Such a big bowl!" There is so much treasure inside this bowl that Friend B needed Friend A to help him out. 

While waiting for friend A & B to enjoy that big bowl of noodle, I snapped pictures of these pretty bowls. Not all eateries use ceramic bowls and plates these days.

After breakfast, we walked down the shops to take a look.

We came upon this glutinous rice dumplings and kueh shop.

All the other dumplings were sold out except for the healthy Millet Dumplings. Instead of glutinous rice, the dumplings are made of millet. I bought one to try.

I steamed the dumpling and we ate it for lunch.

It tasted like the normal glutinous dumpling except there was no glutinous rice.

Dear brothers, you are only visitors here.

Since your real home is in heaven,

I beg you to keep away from the evil pleasures of this world;

they are not for you, for they fight against your very souls.
