Foh San Dim Sum, Ipoh

Hello! Missed me? I am back. Sorry to have made some of you worry. Yes, I was ill for awhile. Then followed by Mamarazzi and then Papa too.

My Kaw-kaw came back from New Zealand and we drove up north for a Makan-Makan Trip. Can you guess where I went to?


 Hint hint...

Anyone recognised this place? Sure Auntie Claire recognised. Came here for the Dim Sum.


It was a week day, hence there were no crowd. Parking was rather hard to come by.



Mamarazzi ordered this Double Skin Steamed Milk(RM3-80) for me. Taste good. There was a hint of ginger syrup in it. A bit too sweet for Mamarazzi's taste buds.

 Fried Yam Pastry (RM3-20). This one manyak sedap oh.

 Siew Mai (RM3-80). Taste a bit salty.

Fish Dumpling (RM3-50).

 Fried Prawns Dumplings (RM4). Yumm..

 Fried Wan Tan (RM3). Hmm... rather expensive.

 Char Siew Pau(RM3-20). Love the fluffy skin but the meat in it was rather too sweet. 

Nam Yee Pau (RM3-20) .


 Steamed Pork Rib(RM4). Good. Heavy taste of wine.

 Errr...forgotten the name. Taste average only

 Black Pepper Siew Mai (RM3-50). Taste good.

Phoenix Dumpling. Forgotten the price. Taste average. The skin was rather thick.

 Same goes for the Har Kow 

 
Auntie Florence really enjoyed the Xiu Long Pau

 Steamed Beancurd Rolls(RM3-80)

Supreme Prawns Siew Mai(RM5-50) Taste ok-ok but rather expensive.

Mmmnnnmm.....perut kenyang already....

To Mamarazzi, the Dim Sum here tasted average and rather pricey. But this is her sole opinion. Each person's taste buds are different. 

Well, at least now when people asked if I have been to Foh San, I can say that I have. Here is the address just in case you wish to have a try.

And a special Thank You to Auntie Claire for purposely drove to meet us and gave me a bag full of Enid Blyton's book. Thank you!!!

  2. i think the dim sum is not value for money especially for Klang Valley people like us. We need to drive 200+ Kilometer to take the expensive dim sum.

  3. Yalor...stay away so long! Next time you go some place, come back quick, quick! Wah...I see you've grown a bit bigger already... LOL!!! This dim sum looks quite good...but still a bit kasar - not like the hotels' Chinese restaurants' ones...but certainly better than many places in KL that I've seen. I bet the taste is great - best in Ipoh?

  22. Welcome back... now u make auntie drool... but not over the food... over the Enid Blyton books. Haihh... u kno rite auntie punya kawan damn jahat? Pinjam buku auntie tak kasi balik. Dah la tu... ask her go and cari the buku, she pulak dilly dally there and kasi so many excuse and try to push responsibility to other ppl. Auntie HATE THIS KIND OF PPL! If rosak... or hilang, just say la...terus terang wif auntie so that can arrange for other compensation or wud... ini tidak... tak mau terus terang, buat bodoh aje. Cilaka betul! U grow up liao dun be like this kind of ppl... or else auntie dowan to kawan wif u.

    Do try the Wishing Chair series, The magic Faraway tree series and the red/blue/yellow/green storybook series. I love them when i was younger.

    Then when she is a bit older maybe you like to let her read The St Claire Twins series and The Malory Tower series. Teaches about responsibility and getting on with friends.
