Ipoh Garden Restaurant

Sliced Fish Meehoon Soup ($12.50)

Known for its world-famous Ipoh Ho Fun (Rice Noodle), Ipoh Garden Restaurant sure will not disappoint. Have dined at this eatery for years and it still has not changed. My all time favourites are Sliced Fish Meehoon Soup, Ipoh Ho Fun soup and I-swear-I-can-eat-forever, the Inchikabin ( Fried chicken with Tamarind dipping sauce). 

The sliced fish Meehoon was just perfect, served boiling hot in a sour broth. The tomatoes balanced the sourness and the soup had generous amount of fish and veggies. Holy smokes! its a temptation to my tastebuds,  I had to order and try more dishes. 

Hainanese Chicken Rice ($9.90)

It is the first time I tried the Chicken rice at Ipoh and oh my God. It is wonderful. They serve big pieces of perfectly steamed chicken, soya sauce and drizzle of fried onions, I could not stop. The Hokkien Fried Mee was a classic sensation. Ipoh is a popular restaurant that serves knock out dishes that is uniquely Malaysian. Average service, but good value for money!

Mak's Place

Satay Chicken (5 Sticks, $7,70)

We dined at Mak's place because the Satay Chicken was a mass favourite. Apparently being commented as one of the best Satays in Perth according to a writer from Sunday Times, I had to test it. The surrounds reminded me of a cafeteria in Singapore and the walls are deliciously decorated with Mak's dishes on canvas. We ordered Nasi ayam (Rice cooked in Chicken Broth and marinated fried chicken), Nasi Briyani (Curry chicken with fragrant rice cooked in ghee and spices) and ofcourse the Satay chicken ( chicken in peanut sauce). Did not realise all of our dishes were chicken-based but it does not matter,all three were uniquely appetizing!

Nasi Ayam ($11.00)

The Satay Chicken was sumptuously beautiful , the satay sauce is made of real peanuts, not too oily and with just right thickness. I particularly loved the Nasi Briyani , the fusion of the fragrant rice and the curry was like wildfire in my mouth. However the Nasi Ayam failed to impress my partner,as it tasted like a plain home-made fried chicken. But overall, one can really savor the authentic Singaporean-Malay flavours at Mak's Place. The food is cheaper than average, less than $10 a dish and serving size was just right.
