Foh San - Ipoh

Good Tim Sum here, fried canton with mango sauce, drunk seafood bread, sweet corn kussard Bao, pan roasted gum

One of the most famous dimming and tea palms for early breakfast in the heart of Ipoh city. This place is often packed, regardless of which day of the week. Holidays and weekend visits are best avoided unless you can show up before seven. And yes, the place opens so early in the morning.

Best Dim Sum in Ipoh. Why Best? Bcs ambience is 5 stars, interior design is pleasing and very airy open air yet cooling. Came on Saturday morning peak hour 9am yet tables are available (its 2 levels and 3 shoplots together, ample seating available). Dim sum served is 精致 and freshly wrapped and steam upon order (serving time is reasonable 15mins since you know its handmade) If you are in a rush, don't eat dim sum okay? Service is great, basically you don't need to refill own tea, staff will help you. Price is OK provided with the quality, 2 pax for RM53+. Will come again. Side note: We plan to come for Ming Court, but utterly there is long queue of wait and restaurant is small. The last thing we want during covid-19 season is crowd, and also the feeling of rushing to eat just to spare a table for the next customer.

Last weekend was a long weekend holiday, went Ipoh one day makan trip with close friends, 8A1C. Assuming it will be a long queue session but surprisingly no, but as for the opposite road Ming Court, there is long queue of wait and restaurant is small. Good ventilation for 1st floor and ground floor. Toilet cleanliness soso. Food is normal, service is good and extra point added because it served while it is steaming hot. Recommendation is the special sauce chee cheong fun, and fried taro cake. It did not disappoint me. Personal opinion is quite pricey. Limited parking space. Parking fees. RM0.60 1 hours but have to download the apps and pay. Easy to top up the parking duration but minimum reload is RM10.00. so in the end I left RM7.00 inside the apps. hahaha...

Came around 10.30 to get our brunch on a Saturday,kinda crowded but took just around 10 minutes to get a table, parking is kinda hard to find so need park a little further away. There is a variety of dimsums here that’s what I like ,can choose from many many options. Taste wise still can improve in small details like the crispyness of my wukok. Many dishes have like prawn inside (which is quite worth it for the price but poor brother is allergic so kinda sad) ,steam item’s took so long which I was kinda dissatisfied,plus they don’t have that item then they X it but didn’t say anything to us hmmm . Price kinda reasonable four of us ate like a lot came up to 121, the environment is quite open air ventilation great so I like the atmosphere. I feel that Kl FH is slightly better than them but in ipoh this is great enough.
