DINE WITH ME: Hari Raya Day #1


It's a Malaysian holiday today! Selamat Hari Raya to all my Muslim readers. Maaf Zahir & Batin. Since it's a holiday, like others I travel out from the city and goes back to my hometown. 

Welcome to Ipoh, my birth place. One of the tourist attraction - A place of good food , beautiful landscapes, caves and temples. 

However, due to the traffic congestion in town and people crowded most of the foodie paradise, I decided to hunt for my dinner at a less-crowded and quieter place. 

Today's dinner is served in a western way. 

Located at Ipoh Garden East, you'll definitely love the cozy environment. With a reasonable price tag, this is a place you would like to visit besides than the famous Lou Wong Bean Sprouts Chicken - maybe for a cup of coffee nor a piece of macaroon.

I started my dinner with a cup of hot coffee, followed by a mushroom soup as my appetizer. 





Soup is served in a generous portion :)


Bored of having salmon and beef, I decided to order chicken as my main course. Here are two dishes that I've picked from the menu.

Grilled Peri Peri Chicken served 
with Mashed Potatoes


Chicken Burger served with Onion rings



*For your information, all food serve from kitchen are prepared by the owner itself and yes, he is a friendly guy too!
