Currently Motormouth's on a roll here !!! Given the situation (rather dire now, with about merely half a month more to go), I dragged FCOE for a run all around Ipoh town today, covering as much eateries as possible before the inevitable. How tragic you say? Nah .... none of those soapy, pathetic & dramatic endings. Tucked in the middle of a row of almost-forgotten …

The abundance of roes was astounding! Pity Mr Prawn’s head also punctured by the pressure! To get you along the mid-week blues (though it’s a much, much revered 4 days working week), let me share another famous Chinese seafood restaurant in Tanjung Tualang of Perak. No doubt you’ve read about my crustacean-walloping experience back in ...
And it’s Christmas, New Year and another particularly important date came late, when I finally popped over to Michelangelo’s Pizzeria for some Fresh, Hot Pizza made on the spot. If you have no idea on what or where Michelangelo’s is, do read my previous post first, for clarification. After all, I doubt many Ipohans can ...

I have not written about food in Pusing (a small town in the state of Perak, very near to Batu Gajah, Seri Iskandar, Bota etc) for a very long time. Not that we did not travel to the town often, but more so because of an unexplainable reason, one that forbids me from telling. Huh? ...
Heong Peng, or Heong Peah, or Heang Peah (literally translated to Fragrant Biscuits) is one of Ipoh's most famous pastry (if not THE most famous), widely marketed and commercialized thanks to the commendable efforts of Yee Hup, one of the most popular brand of Heong Peng originating from Gunung Rapat. "Sweat ... sweat .... why this fella snap my picture one?!! Now lemme …
It’s a double whammy for today. Sitiawan food posts back to back. For the sake of it, yeah! After all, weekends don’t always come in a mega-luscious, enticing and enviable THREE days. We Perakians have them good, for the next Monday’s a holiday. Long live the Sultan of Perak …. for this translates to ...

It’s midweek, and I bet most would be having the midweek blues by now. I sure am having them, for I did not touch my work for a good 2 weeks throughout the entire Chinese New Year season. And can’t really remember how long has it been since I worked a full FIVE days in ...
