Done my food trail at Sitiawan on this weekend, limited food can be tucked in & need to balance between what I wanted to eat & what my kids wanted to eat with calories control. Here are the photos

1) Mor Mor at Kg Koh ~ from the herbal tea stall. Selling at RM 7.80/ bag, got around 6 pieces within a bag.





2) Samy”s Cendol @ Wisma Ganda. Selling at RM 3.20/ bowl. You can request to add red bean or pulut. The taste of this cendol was memorable to me. The santan was fresh with some mild saltiness & mixed with the slightly burn caramel of the gula melaka was a good mixture + the red bean which tasted gila best. Only set back was the shaved was not smooth type.









3) One HotPot. This one was Taiwan's food concept which was brought to the locality. Don't pick too many choices, pick only the food amount you can finish.

You come to sitiawan

Must try the lu mien, kampua mien and gongpiang.

4) Ayer Tawar Fried Chicken ( Almost +20 years still selling ), beside Balai Polis. You see Indian customers, you know the food will be value for the money. Selling at RM 2.80 3.00 / piece ( increased by 11.11% as per June 2022 ). The skin was crispy & the fragrant of the fried chicken has it own uniqueness & the pairing with the homemade chili sauce matches perfectly.









5)Ayer Tawar Aipo Noodle Stall ~ Kampua & Lu Lak Bien Nuk. The commonly available kampua was selling at RM 3.50/ plate & lu lak bien nuk at RM 2.50 / bowl ( common price paid by the local).











The nangka , local was selling at RM 5 / 500g.

8) Simpang Dua Ho Sing Ee ( for Yi Ya Meng Ngor @ Dun Ngwan Nau Meng Ngor )

The meng ngor with kaya & butter spread was selling at RM 2.00 / piece at the time of visit.

Noted with thanks, will give it a try next time.

新甘光 Aik Hong Kopitiam@ Kg Baru

Went to try out their Hainam Kopi, homemade kaya butter toast, half boiled eggs, curry fish rice , fried mee.











So far, their Hainan Kopi the best within Manjung district.

Dinner at Restaurant Makanan Laut Villa @ Kampung Cina


4 heavenly king. Mixture of white pomfret, medium prawns(8 pieces), mud crab (requested to change with squid) & lala.


Fried oyster - crispy style


Kg. Koh chili sos for the fried oyster pairing.


Marmite chicken for the kids.


Fried Romaine lettuce


Mantis prawns with the nestum coating



Damage at RM 233.50 for 6 pax. Average around RM 38.92/ pax. Foods taste good but the pricing I personally think the outlet got the element of the loading for tourist. Overall still acceptable.

Chai Chin Fish Head for the steam grouper fish head & BKT.


The 1/2 grouper fish head around 2.4kg. It cost around RM 70/kg. I”ll said Kuala Selangor, Tg Karang & Sekinchan fish head was more price competitive in comparison ( selling at RM 60/ kg to my record).


Bah Kut Teh





Ordered 2 vegetables





Damage around RM 243.90 for 10 pax. Average around RM 24.40/ pax .

Breakfast at Kedai Kopi Hui. The noodles stall, remember to order the kampua served with the cut crispy seafood bean curd (only common here) & pork, the curry mee , the cintan pien nyuk (wantan) & pair with Hainanese Kopi. The serves nasi lemak & nasi kari wrapped with paper bag (egg, fish or prawn option).

If you want, you can order the nasi lemak from the opposite Malay stall & get the order deliver to your seating . Remember to show respect by not mixing the use of the fork & spoon of halal & not halal.



Previously this kampua was selling at RM 4.50/ bowl, the latest price is RM 5.00/bowl (around 9.00% increased)



Previously this curry noodle was selling at RM 4.50/ bowl, the latest price is RM 5.00/bowl (around 9.00% increased)

127 Villages Noodles @ Kg Koh( Next to Petronas) for the Kampua & Bien Nuk.

Malay style breakfast at Kedai Warung Pak Wan @ Sungai Wangi. Went there twice with the following orders.


Roti banjir


Roti Sarang Burong


Roti Arab Cheese


Roti Sarang Cobra





Will be crowded during weekend.

Supper at 777 Food Court. Ordered the grilled stingray & rojak buah.

Good post. Miss being there. Gonna follow some of your trails.

Keep it up.

Seafood noodle & Mee Jawa @ Pantai Remis, Perak.

This location is situated at neighbouring town of Sitiawan and still located within Manjung district , hence I decided to part this here instead of opening another thread.





RM 5.00 / plate, no price increase as per today revisit.





Mee Jawa was superb. Unfortunately the owner decided to discontinue selling. Today was a last day selling. The owner said he was unable to pass the cost to customers ( will hear a lot of harsh words), the best is stop selling it. Consider lucky to try it before the owner stop selling it, unfortunate because it was not available anymore. Got regular customers ordered 2 plate per person today😅. Was selling at RM 5.00/plate.

Went to a Siew Hua Biscuit @ Ayer Tawar. They are selling a few Foo Chow biscuit products which hardly can be found at other places anymore.

1. Foo Chow Bagel ( required fermentation process) , this type Gong Pia is getting rare nowadays because of the additional waiting time for the dough to get fermented.





The taste was mildly sweet , chewy & more moist compare to the commonly available Gong Pia.

2. Leh Bian

This biscuit appear like Sg Buloh hot plate pancake but the content are more moist like yam texture, gluey, sweet & it contains lard.







They are closed on Sunday.

Grandma Canteen















The only thing I like about this location was on the kopi pheng. The rest of the foods I think it was average when compared to the other locations of similar kopitiam I have visited.

Went to Peng Peng Bah Kut Teh not for the BKT but something else. There is a dish they sell here which have been assimilated to the local. It is the Foo Chow style fried pork kidney with the fermented red rice wine. This dish is usually available during the confinement period & usually it is home prepared.









Price at RM 18/serving.

It has been sometimes since I last visited this town. To my surprise, within a short span of time, there are some new modern eatery appearing on after another. Probably due to some of the successful cafes/ eatery, it starts to draw the competitors to get the slice of the cakes.

One of the most recent one, Moh Kee Coffee House. Due to the decoration & set up, a lot of locals & outside ppl crowded this location since December 2022. I managed to visit the location recently because the hype have died down, there are easily 3-4 new alternatives in town namely :-

1) 2 Tigers Kopitiam ( from Ipoh, have branches at KV)
2) Jia Xiang Kopitiam
3) Happiness Old Nan Yang Kopitiam

Ordered their signature dish - braised noodle, kopi ping, french toast.











My rating for Moh Kee Kopitiam are as following:-
1) Taste - 5.5/10. A lot of place can offer similar taste. Nothing stand out.
2) Ambient - 9/10. It was clean, air conditioned & spacious.
3) Price - 3/10. With the surrounding foods selling at almost 1/2 of the price, I don’t see how the demand is sustainable. Locals will come to try 1 off to experience. For repeated customers, I doubt they are willing to spend this money away. The outlet is selling the price almost equivalent to the major city. Tourists don’t come for something they can get easily

It will be a bit difficult for the outlet to sustain.

Breakfast at Jia Xiang Kopitiam . They are one of the new kopitiam outlet in the town.

The curry noodle with stingray fish is quite nice , selling at RM 9.50/pot.

The highlight of the eatery is actually their ang ku kueh. The ang ku kueh is really good. The white coffee taste comparable to Ipoh.

Their food pricing can be on par with food pricing at the Klang Valley.
