Overall, the atmosphere at Chooi Yue is cool with local families gathering for their weekend tea session ( yum cha in Cantonese ) and the vast variety of items on their menu is enough to make anyone happy.
Maybe one of the best modern dim sum place in Ipoh. Queue is systematic and fast, service as good. Most of the dim sum are delicate and delicious, good quality.
♥Verdict: We were pleased with the food quality and I especially enjoyed the Scallop Har Gao with fresh, bouncy prawns and the addition of celery imparted a bold flavour to it. Steamed Rice Noodle with Shrimp You Tiao also another favourite of mine here. Crunchy You Tiao and shrimps were wrapped with silky smooth rice roll, served with soy sauce, a dish that scored well in terms of flavour and texture.
Serviceable dim sum. Nothing out of the ordinary, despite the constant long queue.
Steamed pork ribs – soft, succulent and juicy, has a light salty hint of black soybean, taste great and appetizing.
Overall was a pleasant dining experience and once we finished our food, we proceed to the counter to make payment with our order chit.
This is a very local dim sum place, and very popular with the locals here. The dim sum is more rough and old school, hit and miss. You can feel the vibe of a traditional dim sum place. RM 45.40 for..
Restoran Sun Kim Aik, one of the hidden gems in Ipoh. This restaurant only known for local for delightful and classic dim sum.
My favourites were the fried dumplings and the charsiewbao, which as nice and fluffy. Everything else was fresh and tasty, but I can’t say it’s the best dimsum I’ve ever had. Maybe because I’m used to the dimsum I always have in my native Puchong.
Steamed Beancurd Skin Roll RM5.20 – two big rolls, remain steamy hot prior serve, soft and juicy while packed with pork and shrimp fillings.
Foh San Dim Sum Restaurant has very extensive menu of Dim Sum and other delicacies.
Reluctantly change plan to Foh San Dim Sum with a not so happy mood. We already know that despite being a highly-mentioned restaurant, the not-so-good comments they have are a lot too. Established since 1971, this award-winning restaurant is undeniably one of the first few eateries that will cross the mind of many when asked “what to eat in Ipoh for breakfast”. Is just like you will go for Pun Chun Duck Noodles when in Bidor. Famous, but, not our first choice
Restoran Zui Le Xuan 聚乐轩点心楼 is one of the nice places in town that provide a dim sum for early birds. This place is nice, cozy, and airy for dim sum. The place is not too crowded and the varieties of dim sum are complete with reasonable pricing too. Serving with classic and fusion types of dim sum, this is the place for family and most importantly the ingredients are fresh.
Steamed glutinous rice or loh mai kai.
Dumplings I wanted "siew mai" and "har gao"
Harga tak de lah mahal mana. Bermangkuk mangkuk jugak la bebudak ni order dekat RM 100 lebih gak ler.
It's a halal dim sum restaurant in Ipoh.
Overall, we enjoyed the food and service from Yoke Fook Moon. Must order the big bao!
A pleasant dining experience without annoying table waiting time. Food were mostly above average, especially the carrot cake and will definitely come back for it on my next trip.
Dim sum we ordered for first round. I could not say it's cheap but KL is selling at RM4.50 per plate.
If you are the stereotypical type of people thinking to eat Dim Sum whenever you are visiting Ipoh, try Chef Fatt's place next time, at least for a change. The Dim Sum restaurant is a stone's throw distance away from the famous establishments of Foh San, Ming Court and Yoke Fook Moon Restaurant. Stepping in the place feels like you are visiting a Cha Chan Teng (Hong Kong-styled cafe) in Hong Kong- closely arranged tables and chairs, nostalgic wall tiles, slippery floor tiles and classic Chinese restaurant setting. Once you are seated, you will be approached by the ladies offering trays of piping hot Dim Sum dishes and recommended some signature dishes or best sellers of theirs. It feels like dining in an intimate space in the neighborhood; pretty decent quality and reasonably priced, a good alternative to those bigger establishments.
The food here is ok for me, the environment is good, it was not crowded during the time of my visit. Service is good.
Har mai (prawn dumpling).
Out of all items ordered, I'm pleased and satisfied to have these for breakfast. At least no calories were wasted over here.
Their famous Nam Yue Kou Yoke dumplings. Its what everybody come here for.
Food here is tasty and the main thing that i like is that Dynasty Palace Restaurant is way way far away from those busy city center and away from tourist hot spot ! haha .. !
The community in Sungai Bakap/ Jawi, a sleepy town located at the south of Penang State is believed to share a common root- Teo Chew. Those who are in the know would know where to find authentic Teo Chew delicacies, one of which is Shun Li Dim Sum & Restaurant in the old town. If you are unfamiliar with the narrow streets, ask any locals and they will be able to direct you to the right destination. The place is familiar amongst the local residents and has proven to be an intimating family-restaurant. There are quite a few Teo Chew origin dishes available here, the most notable ones being their Teo Chew Chai Kuih.
For breakfast, we decided to have dim sum at Restoran China Chuan Kwong in the Greentown Business Centre, Ipoh.
The food is above average and I especially like the Yee Mai and Lau Sar Pau.
Here's the location.
I like to eat dim sum once in a while but we have friends who can eat dim sum almost everyday. I can't imagine myself eating dim sum that often. One morning our friend suggested that we try the dim sum at this new dim sum restaurant. This new place is Restoran You Qian Zhan in Bercham.
Yam or Taro puffs that come in a pair of white swans. So creative, the batter even looks like feathers after being fried.
The dim sum here is definitely different from the ones in KL or Ipoh, it is sort of like small town flavour. If you are an adventurous foodie, you should give it a try. The shop has an old kampung..
