cari makan from belum to bidor

it was journey for food on the way back from belum to bidor.

first stop- lenggong.
we stopped at hup yik seafood restaurant which is opposite maybank along the main road of this small town.


looking at all the signs on the walls, i think this restaurant is famous for fresh water fish dishes.

my friend recommended this cili padi sauce. really spice and cukup ooomppphh.....3 bottles for rm14.

this is what we are here for- steamed sai tou fish fishballs. in bm- ikan parang. in english- wolf herring fish. 60 cents per piece. quite expensive but really good especially when dipped in the chilli sauce. i bought 20 fishballs home.

next stop- indulgence ipoh. one of the more expensive...hmmh..maybe the most expensive fine dining restaurant in ipoh. prices of food are much higher now compared to my previous visit.

the owner was there- julia song. she was just recently featured in the star for creating dishes for MAS catering. she is quite a lanky lady and looks fierce when serious.

pumpkin soup with lots of tuna in it.

complimentary bread basket

french onion soup

duck meat

vege spring roll

a chicken dish

tiramisu- rm14. not totally mind blowing. it was all right. i am quite disappointed actually.

mud cake which is too dry. i thought mud cake is supposed to be soo soo soo moist that it sticks in a lump hence the name??

well, it will be a while before i step into indulgence again. guess i am not prepared to pay so much for the portion. there are other places in ipoh which are reasonable for the price they charge, so i will go to those instead.
