I've heard that the bean sprouts in Taiping is excellent. I've never try but I hope to visit Taiping and Ipoh to taste their food
I do enjoy watching your channel. I have visited Taiping many times over the past 40 years. My wife was born there.
I love char kway teow. The mee rebus and tau foo fah is very good in Pokok Assam.
