Ipoh is also known as one of the food hunting ground where you can see a lot of write-ups on online media or local newspaper. We were stop by in Ipoh during our road trip up to Hatyai, that we purposely start our journey early to stop by here for their famous tim sum. For the first time being here and much review readed regarding on this stall, yet Jonathan being at his hometown lead us they way to this Ming Court Hong Kong Dim Sum.
This is one of a famous restaurant to dine in the morning and we have to look out for table ‘Siapa cepat, dia dapat’ kind of thing.
The business is so good that some of them do not mind share tables with strangers.
As we were very hungry, and we just ordered most of the tim sum we see that passing by on cart, carried by the waitress or randomly ordered.
On that morning, all of us were disappointed with the quality of the tim sum, most of the tim sum we did not finish till we got no appetite to continue and Jonathan also said that it is very different from what he had last round and it is not cheap, for a simple order like that it cost us RM100 which I find it VERY expensive! I guess next round I would want to try out the opposite tim sum, which is also another famous restaurant.
We were still hungry and looking for food to eat, and found this uncle selling ice cream potong that so many auntie ta pau it, then we decide to join the crowd also.
The ice cream that store in cold temperature by using dry ice to maintain its freshness.
We tried out ‘Cendol’ for RM1.20 a stick that have ‘Red Bean’, ‘Durian’ and ‘Mango’ (if not mistaken). It would not taste exactly the same as the Ice Cendol we eat but with a strong taste of gula melaka that overpower the taste of it.
This uncle had been selling ice cream for many years since his dad, as in the morning he would be selling in between the dim sum restaurant till 11am then he will move to another area to sell.
After this place, we head to another shop for second round of breakfast~

Dim sum has no standard & quality at all, getting worse compare to few years back; maybe is too commercialise. Not understand why so many people queue up?
I have a bad impression on this Ming Court & will never back to this shop again!!
totally agree with you!
