Hoong Toh In Old Town Ipoh

Remember Hoong Toh restaurant in old town? It was considered a prestagious restaurant from those days, say around 1960s, if I m not mistaken, it used to hold many chinese weddings there, marble tables and wooden polished chairs.. sort of a heritage restaurant that still serves the evergreen food from those days...

Now the restaurant has run down, compared to the present restaurants nowadays...nevertheless the food tasted the same...from 20 years ago when i started eating and until today... we ordered a wan tan hor (flat noodles with thick gravy) and this deep fried wan ton..its their speciality, and accompanied by a sweet sour sauce.

koay teow with gravy sauce....

deep fried crispy wan ton to go with the noodles

  2. We used to eat here too, their speciality is their porridge and the 'yee foo wan ton'. Years back a friend of mine ate in this place and her throat got stuck with a staple! Had to go to the doc to dislodge it!
