Another "stale" post. Happen way back in August. This post got interrupted by school holiday and what not....Should be read as a continuance from
"Roast Meat at Restaurant First Kwong Chow, Ipoh (Not Halal)"
After a short rest at the hotel, off we went food hunting with Auntie Claire and the gang. This round we went to "Horse Fighting"...lol...nah...that's not really the name of the place. It's just direct translation from Bahasa Malaysia.."Lawan Kuda".
Auntie Claire and friends discovered this place through her food journey. Here is how she discovered it
"New Discovery Cui Hu Jing At Lawan Kuda, Gopeng".
That evening Auntie Nancy and Auntie Claire brought us to this scenic restaurant.
.
Me very sleepy leh.... padan muka coz Mamarazzi asked me to sleep in the hotel I don't want. Instead wanna go swimming pulak.
Guess we arrived at the restaurant very good timing leh. Not long after that it was raining cats and dogs. Very windy and cold. Lucky I have got a sweater in the car.
And of course the gang did not hesitate to order warm food to warm our tummy.
Service was quite fast.... Yummy tofu....errr..... proper name tarak tau but the gravy taste great with the rice.
They purposely ordered the egg for me coz scared I have not enough to eat.
But...instead ..I was eyeing the fried chicken...shy shy la...I ate two pieces only leh... Actually I ate very little at that time for dinner. They were wondering if the food doesn't suit me but maybe I have a sixth sense la....the makan gang surely will not be satisfied with only dinner...there will be more to come later on.
Vegetable dish....very popular among the ladies... eh eh eh...there was one more vegetable dish....where's the photo ah? Missing in action. Probably Mamarazzi forgotten to snap the photo coz too happy to see that dish. Can you guess what was that dish?
The ladies ordered two type of fish. One fried and spicy.
The other was steamed fish. Both also unique. If to choose one...Mamarazzi would say she like the steam ones better. Both fishes were very fresh and doesn't have "mud" taste.
Syok oh going in a large group. This way, we can order a lot of food to try instead of one or two dishes only.
Errr...Mamarazzi tried to google the address but doesn't seems to be able to find one....The nearest was from Auntie Claire's blog which states near Jalan Desa Cahaya... From that road can see the restaurant. From google map...it point to Jalan Desa Cahaya 1. Errr.... agak-agak la.. :

ReplyDeleteCheap and very good food for the holiday makers to stop by. I have memories of my ex boss who
took me there to eat in almost of the different restaurants including the 'houses'. All yummy!
