Kedai Kopi & Tumpangan "Peace": Colonial majestic coffee shop
  • Tip Rating:
  • An impressive colonial prewar town building which serves as a coffee shop with stalls selling local Taiping food on the ground floor as well as providing accommodating on upper floor.

    Used to be one of my favorite eating places. Location is next to Taiping major shopping supermarket "The Store" and so after a quick snack under the ceiling fans of the coffee shop, can cool down further in the full air con "The Store".

    Restaurant Ice Kacang: Excellent chicken rice, soya bean, etc

    There is also a famous prawn noodles (Hokkien mee) similar to Penang variety. Other stalls include "Char Koay Teow" (fried noodles) and "Popiah" (spring rolls).

    There are ample public parking using coin hourly meters.

    Taiping Food Court - Below Fajar Hypermarket: Taiping most popular food court
  • Tip Rating:
  • Once the old bus station, this ground floor below Fajar Hypermarket Kamunting has numerous hawker food stalls with a separate halal food (for Muslim) section.

    What you should do is take a big walk around and look at all the stalls. Be careful, some times the floor can be wet and slippery.

    If you are ensure, look at what most locals are eating and you know what is popular and decently great.

    I have taken the chicken rice and curry mee there - not bad. You will be spoiled for choice.

    This is just a noirmal coffee shop with 4 or 5 food stalls selling hawker food such as noodle soup, fried kway teow, popiah and chicken rice...

    The noted Taiping popiah is sold here... As Taiping is also famous for its popiah, beside chee cheong fun, we were unfortunate not to try this stall, which is deeded to be the best in the town... as we were so full after tasting some of the local stalls...

    Stall C37 Pusat Selera: The Unforgettable Chee Chong Fun!
  • Satisfaction:
  • This stall sells yam cake, chee cheong fun, barley water, etc. It is not ambience of the stall that is important but the affordable yet tasty food items it provides. What makes this place special? My cousins, from Singapore who used lived in Taiping when they were much younger, would never Taiping without first eating at this stall.

    My favourite dish as well that of my cousins is chee cheong fun which is soft and smooth. Normally it would come with chili sauce and brown sweet sauce. The taste would be further enhanced if it goes with prickled green chilli.

    Taiping Food Court ~ Chee Cheong Fun: Taiping Food Court ~ Chee Cheong Fun
  • Satisfaction:
  • The food court is the result of moving most of the street hawkers off the streets and centralise them... A section of the food court is segregated for muslim food... There are many stalls thats sells all kinds og Chinese hawker food... ranging from seafood to nooldes soups...

    The most famous chee cheong fun is located at stall C-37... It is the best in the town... its yam cake is also mouth watering and delicious...

    Yut Sun Restoran: Yut Sun Restoran
  • Satisfaction:
  • This is a typical Hainanese coffee shop and eatery... It was recommended by one of the Taiping golfers that we met at the Taiping Golf & Country Club... Thomas Ng told us that it has the best coffee in town... Besides coffee, there are also typical Hainanese food available in this eatery...

    The shop is noted for its Hainanese cusine... The chicken chop is good... They serve also fried noodles... As for the coffee, there is nothing to shout about... it is just normal coffee as you can drink anywhere in the country...

    this is an old shop smack right in the middle of town.. the name means peace coffee shop and guest house.. the shop was built during the colonial times and have refurbished.. there's a guest house upstairs.. anyway, everything here is still from the olden days, giving it some added charm..

    we dropped by during tea time and most of the stalls were closed.. but we got to try the popiah.. it's like a wet spring roll.. there's an old lady mending the stall.. costs rm1.20 per piece.. really yummy.. i'll definitely have it again the next time i go back there.. according to my sis, this place is famous.. well, we were lucky to stumble upon it! :)

    this is another old joint in town.. we read about it somewhere.. we came here on a weekday morning.. lots of elderly people hang out here to have their morning tea over newspapers and have a chat.. interesting atmosphere.. we were the youngest there!!

    they serve very few dishes here compared to most dim sum places in the country.. and the taste is different.. very home cook food taste, if there's anything like that.. anyway, this is something different.. worth a try.. i particularly like their buns.. char siew pau.. have a try! :)
