should start charging 2x on kl ppl and 3x on pg ppl
intruders will stop flocking ipoh by then

if u know where to find still got below RM5 wan tan mee (near my place RM4.50) but yes these day most of the food starting price is RM5 in penang.

ipoh food is made by lazy ppl . The wan tan mee and char koay teow got no fried lard. Eat yong tau fu or pork noodles got no fried garlic. buntong chicken rice uses normal white rice. However they like to charge you premium price for their food.


Houses are not well kept. The wall beside the house is not cemented and you can see the bricks even after hundreds of years. The roads are full of potholes. No pavement. Their market is uses zinc rooftop . so old .


One of the lousiest major chinese cities in malaysia.

daylight robbery

Well that's what I do since I WFH nowadays. I also no appetite when thinking what to eat outside, knowing I will mostly get plain noodles with little ingredients and waste of time caught in traffic jam

Avoid Ipoh at all cost . . . so I can enjoyed it's food peacefully , , ,

Thank you buddy @tankerbell12345

nearlee hometown

mixed rice > noodles if at same price level

at least mixed rice is more complete nutritious meal, while noodles with little meat and almost devoid of vege.

cannot imagine those living in melaka, penang, ipoh, go out eat need to deal with jam, fight with tourist, parking lik cb, every weekend also dont feel like going out

lucky my hometown seremban not so crazy, but recently lots of KL ppl buy house there, sigh, make sban jam also, but luckily not so may tourist, can still enjoy my childhood foods without fighting with tourist

Serving small lah.
Infact....maybe possibly more expensive that KL price lo.

Yes. So it wasn't only me. Was having breakfast at a so-called famous ipoh kopitiam, price came up to rm 160 for 4 person.

Granted the food is good and we did order quite a bit but some items quite expensive for Ipoh. Curry noodles with seafood rm33. Roti bakar RM6.5.

Not saying we can't afford or food not nice but just seems like KLCC price.

sorry ya for stating the truth. I have been to most cities in malaysia and i can say that ipoh is one of btm of the list. The food is really expensive and the city is really old. U should go to kuching . Their city is well planned and all their house are very beautiful and well constructed.

If ur penang is lanijiao island. That is mekdi hepi meal. Not for adults eat one.

Phewww.. Luckily, only in Ipoh.

It's already tourist pricing. But local Ipoh ppl get peanut salary, how to afford their own food prices like this?

Then Ipoh people should change job to sell food instead as it got good profits.

Kuching don't feel like Msia, we peninsular ppl go there like foreign tourists, not even treated as fellow Msian by immigration.....

Yeah, that's what I thought as well. How can their own people eat this frequently? Unless they got their own underground cheap kopitiam for Perakians only.
