Photo Heavy Post
My family and relatives went down to Ipoh last November for my lil borther's convocation. I will blog about my brother's convocation in a later blogpost since this post is already so heavy.
We arrived a day earlier in Ipoh and had a free-and-easy stroll around the city.
We had visited Ipoh several times but never been to Concubine Lane so we had to check it out. The shophouses along the street are so vibrantly coloured and it's easy to get why it appeals to both locals and tourists alike.
Salted Chicken is a must-have whenever in Ipoh. Personally I felt that the famous Ngah Choi Kay chicken rice and tuageh in Ipoh is overrated and overpriced but I highly recommend their salted chicken. Two thumbs up!
People usually overlook Ipoh when visiting Malaysia, but I think the town is worth a visit to. It is a historical city like Malacca but in it's own unique way in the sense of old meets new. Quite a hipster town to be exact.
Fast forward to the next day, convo day, we had breakfast at the famous Ming Court Hong Kong Dim Sum. My advise is don't go if you are too hungry to wait, go before 8am. The place is incredibly packed and you have to wait for seats. But the food is totally worth the wait.
We had dim sum again for breakfast the day after the convo at Foh San. The place is a two storey building opposite Ming Court Hong Kong Dim Sum. I guarantee you won't miss it when you're there. This place is also packed as Ming Court. Both places can't be compared because Ming Court serves more traditional dim sums whereas Foh San's has more of a modern twist. Different people have different taste in food. Some like Ming Court but some like Foh San.

We headed up to Cameron Highlands after breakfast since we had no further plans that day. We made that decision when we were on the highway back and turned to Cameron on the last minute.
We went ot Avant Chocolate first then to Lavender Farm.
We wanted to visit Boh Tea Farm but it was closed that day on Monday :( so we ended up heading to the local market to buy some fruits and veges before heading back home.
