Reminiscing Of The Old Ipoh



There are so many good memories of old Ipoh. The buildings are gone but the memory lives on till one day when we are gone too. At least there are pictures to hold on to the memory.

Curry Noodles On The Last Day-31.12.2022-Of The Year

Steaming hot curry noodle and hot milo afterwards 

Woke up early before 6am on the last day of 2022and craved a steaming hot curry noodle. Thought of Keng Nam kedai kopi. Wound my car window down and had a cold and crispy drive to town. Felt like the whole of Ipoh was sleepily awaking with the roads unlike the lunch hour crowds.



Arrived by 6.20am. The curry noodle stall was ready and the husband of the chee cheong fun stall was still arrangeing the 'hor fun'. There was three tables and one table of Indian family of three. Another stall was still readying her stall and arranging her 'liew' ...gaily saying 'happy new year' ..in English mind you. It was nice seeing the stall owners free as i usually see them very busy.


Over the radio was the CNY song 'Choy San Tong2" .. even though the new year hadn't  ended yet. Such is my country...haaah the contrast is so nice.


The shop owner and presumably her son in discussion. 


Some free time to have a cuppa and 'sembang' or whatever..before the crowd comes in
