On Monday (13th December), Mandy picked us up at our hotel in Penang to take us to Cameron Highlands.
I’ve heard people saying how the place was no longer nice and cool and all those horrendous stories about the winding road and how everyone would get nauseous and throw up…but not too long ago, my missus’ nephew and niece took my mother-in-law there and she came home full of praises of the place and how she would love to go there again if she had the chance. Since then, I had been hoping that I would have the chance to drop by myself…and finally, my dream came true.
We stopped by Ipoh, Perak along the way for breakfast. It was around 9.00 a.m. already but for some reason, most of the shops in that part of the city (around Jayajusco) that we went to were not open for business. We ended up at this coffee shop…
The wantan mee that I had…
…with the 5-6 little wantan in the soup…
…was very nice, not as nice as what I had at Kafe Kheng Pin along Penang Road on the island but definitely nicer than what my missus had at Gurney.
My daughter ordered the hor fun soup, something she would usually have whenever she went to eat at Old Town…
…and she loved it a lot. Hor fun is some kind of flat rice noodles like kway teow…but narrower and finer especially the ones from Ipoh. I think I would love that too but I wanted to have something different to post on. LOL!!!
My missus had the har mee (prawn noodles)…
…and it was good too.
After that pit stop, it was all the way to Cameron Highlands…
Stick around for the posts on the wonderful time we had there!
