Dim sum at Foh San in Ipoh
Published by Foong at 12:07 am under Asian Food, Restaurants, Where to eat |
It’s been years since we last went to Foh San Restaurant for their fantastic dim sum so when we were in Ipoh for a couple of days, we made darn sure we went there for breakfast.
Foh San Restaurant in Ipoh
We tried to be early since it was a Sunday morning but…
Foh San Restaurant was really packed especially on Sunday mornings
We stood around and tried to search for a place and finally managed to ‘tap toi’ (share a table) with a couple at a corner. And then we had a feast! Let the pictures tell the story…
Lor Mai Kai (Steamed Chicken Glutinous Rice) - the best I've ever had
Pork ribs in sweet and sour sauce - what can I say? Equally good!
Baked bun with curry chicken - the bread is sweet and light and goes wonderfully with the curry...pure genius! Too bad it's not that spicy...
Yong Tau Hu without the soup but still, it is also good
The first few dishes we ate as 'starters' and I must say, they do have loads of big prawns in all of these especially the chee cheong fan.
The last few dishes we had before we burst from over-eating
And we’ve never eaten so much dim sum before in one seating. Do bear in mind that the food shown here are only half of what we ate and there’s only two of us (not counting my toddler since he ate very little compared to his glutton-parents).
Needless to say, that was more of a brunch for both of us! We were so stuffed that we couldn’t eat lunch and only started to get hungry later in the evening.
We spent RM50 on this lavish, sinful, highly unhealthy and fattening breakfast. But it was worth every single ringgit. It is a good thing that Foh San Restaurant’s food aren’t all that oily, unlike some dim sum places we’ve been to before.

[...] The only reason we stayed on in Ipoh for a night is because we wanted to stay on for the fabulous dim sum at Foh San on Sunday morning. You may also be interested in these too: How to save on your electricity [...]
I am hungry but I am trapped in my apartment grounds because it looks like it is going to flood anytime. My guardhouse flood alarm is screaming for us to move out our car. Never mind, I will lick my monitor. *slurrpsss*
lilian: kesiannyer…..it’s going to rain for the next 8 days more….so stock up on food or clean your monitor often…
