And ya!!! After so long right? Here am I starting to blog again xD
After enjoying our family breakfast in Ipoh, we went straight to visit dad's work place. It's somewhere in the outskirt of the town where you can see caves and mountains, and some green stuff = tree...
We spent about 1 1/2 hours there, at the factory... Then is now mum's turn to visit her supplier. Huh?? We then spent another hour there... FINALLY... Clock strikes at 1.30pm and it's lunch time!!
Dad is working in Ipoh, to be exact, Simpang Pulai =.= Since there is KTM that can reach Ipoh straight, mum decided to give it a try. We went to KL Central a day before to purchase the earliest trip to Ipoh. The counter is located at the 2nd floor of KL Central, somewhere near KFC.
I would highly recommend all of you if you're thinking to go on a 1-day trip to Ipoh using KTM. It's much more convenient and it's rather comfortable I would say. RM12 per one-way entitled you to have economy seats; top up RM10 will entitled you to the 2nd class seating where you normally sit in during your train trip around KL. You can go for RM33 for 1st class too... But I have no idea how does it looks like la...
The journey took us 3 hours to reach Ipoh, and good thing about it is that it departures on time, 5.30am sharp and reaches Ipoh on time too, 8.30am =) Upon reaching, dad is there to pick us up and our Ipoh journey begins...
Jianhong was pretty excited as he didn't rest at all during the 3 hours. All he did is staring beside the window and urging he saw cow, sheep... Some environment stuff! Having said that, only then I noticed children born in the 20 century doesn't really have chance to experience as everything is pretty city-lised...
Moving back to our Ipoh one-day trip... According to rumors, we have to have FooSan dim-sum as breakfast if you're a chinese. uh-huh!! We headed straight to FooSan.
FooSan seems a bit too modern to be in a city like Ipoh. 2 stories shop / hotel looking restaurant, yellow lighting and air-cond... Nevertheless, the dim-sum here is 'ok-lah' I would say... It uses buffet-self service style where you'll need to bring a card and queue to collect your dim-sum! Pretty cute though...

Dad's friend recommended Ipoh duck rice, so we hunt for duck rice lo~~~ It's RM5 per plate... Hmm... I would give it a 3.5 out of 5 la! Not bad wei =)
Dad's friend also recommended some must-visit places like the Perak Cave and Gunung Lang. So, we went for a ride. Inside Perak Cave, they have this godness statues all around the caves with awesome mural drawing!! Didn't take picture as godness ma @.@
About Gunung Lang... Apparently is a valley where you can have a boat ride. However, due to time constraint, we only managed to capture the beautiful landscape!
It's almost 4pm and dad's best buddy, 'Wah Gor' brought us to a fruit stall to bring home some durian... Not bad wei... Tasty!!!!!! Mum & Jianhong couldn't resist it!!!
Check out the bananas~~~
On our way back, we stopped at Kampar for its famous chicken in bread!! Don't know what am I writing on? Here you go!
The Restaurant is Restaurant Yau Kei =)
Basically it's chicken wrap with bread. They come in 2 different flavor: curry and herbs. It costs us RM26 for the regular size =)
Oh well, that wraps up my Ipoh one-day trip!!
Love,
