    It's Chicken Rice restaurant. They call Tauge Ayam. This is the most famous restaurant as Chicken rice, also sprout in Ipoh. The chicken was really good and sprout was also. The sprout was very fatty and short. It's different from the one in the other area. At leat it's different from Japanese one and also Vietnamese one. Anyway it's very crowded, so you cannot expext their good service Lol. Just wait, have a seat and eat. Then get out once you finished. If you expect comfortable and slow lunch or dinner, then better to go the other shop.

    We enjoyed a group lunch at this restaurant, which features an open shop layout without air conditioning. The drink selection was interesting, allowing us to choose options like sour plum and chrysanthemum. We ordered a whole chicken, tofu, and a variety of vegetables. The food was quite filling and flavorful, making for a satisfying meal. However, the dining experience was somewhat marred by the presence of numerous houseflies, which made it a bit uncomfortable. Despite this drawback, the overall experience was enjoyable, and I would consider returning for the tasty dishes and casual atmosphere.

    The chicken was tough and served cold, while the bean sprouts were too oily for my taste. The fish and meatballs were decent, but the highlight of the meal was the chicken feet, cooked with a herbal flavor that was uniquely enjoyable.The restaurant was mostly filled with tourists, and the servers were pleasant.

    This place is always packed with patrons craving for beansprouts and steamed (white) chicken, which actually the signature dishes of this restaurant.Once we got our seats and placed the order, it didn't take long to get our order. Quite fast.Beansprouts are a bit different compared to ones in Indonesia. Here in Malaysia, the beansprouts tend to be shorter & thicker. The stir-fried beansprouts is tasty, as well as the chicken: tender and juicy.The chicken feet is tender, meatballs are pretty soft, easy to chew, meaty, and the broth is flavourful.Lastly, we had tofu with silky, smooth texture, firm and savoury. Delish !!
