J2Kfm is a guy in his 20’s – Born, bred, studied and currently working in Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia. I have a strong penchant for good food, an even stronger desire to travel (which coincidentally, had become an integral part of my job), and naturally, rant and ramble incessantly on any topics under the sun. But mostly covering most of the delicious foods that I devoured, 24/7.

This blog, Motormouth From Ipoh was started way back in 3rd of March, 2008. Although still in its infantile age, I’ve recently jumped the ship (from the Blogger platform) to my own domain here, at www.j2kfm.com.

If you’re one who loves to dig up the older archives, scavenge those skeletons in the closet, appreciate your history, or simply adores paraphernalia of the most ancient and nostialgic nature, do drop by my previous blog at this address : http://j2kfm.blogspot.com

Most people would be having the impression that I have eaten everything there is to be eaten in Ipoh, and then some. And possibly stuff that should NOT be eaten. (ahem ahem)

Truth is : I have not. There are simply too much good, interesting and lip-smacking food to be discovered at every nook and corner, rendering my search almost futile with no recommendations from other Ipohans. Or Ipohites, whichever suits your fancy. Or even from those outside of this lovely city, from other states in Malaysia, or even currently residing in other countries in the world, but with a knack in discovering sumptuous food no matter where (or how) they can be found.

Therefore, any recommendations/feedbacks/comments are MOST welcomed. I’ll thank you profusely for any constructive, destructive, or plain nonsensical feedback if I have the chance to bump into you face to face, honestly. Just don’t curse (okay lah … a little bit of cursing is understandable, but limit them please), or spam me. Don’t Push Your Luck.

Feel free to drop any comments, feedback, throw a few dozens of brickbatz, or plain say HI to the author, once in awhile.

My e-mail address is ipohmotormouth@gmail.com

For a better understanding of who in the blue hell is J2Kfm, consider reading the posts below :

1) E-mail Interview with Feedmelah.com – Some toughie questions, but mostly a walk in the park. ;)

2) Motormouth’s 7 Deadly Sins – Seven things you probably do not know about J2Kfm

And are you scratching your head wondering what’s up with the dominant Golden Retriever icons found in both my old and new blog? Read all about the affable and lovely Lulu at the following link :

Lulu, my Golden Retriever

Psst !!! Wanna know what gear I have been using all this while to produce such magnificient photos? (Okay, that’s a little too nauseating for you to stomach, I know) Here goes :

Panasonic Lumix LX3

Panasonic Lumix LX3 has been my companion since February 2009. A reliable digital camera with a fast shutter, manual controls, and sturdy built, this is a good buy for those thinking of getting something a level above the usual point and shoot, but still contemplating on carrying a full-blown DSLR everywhere you go. But of course I am thinking of moving up the ladder and grab myself a DSLR one of these days, but for the time being, I’m contented with my LX3.

Nokia 5600

But wait … didn’t I mention something about this blog’s about to grace her 2 year anniversary come March of 2010? Yes, you read that right. Since from the beginning, I did not have a camera to assist in snapping the food photos. I was using my camera phone, the Nokia 5610 Xpress Music with a 3.2 megapixel camera, to perform its magic. That explains why when you read all the older entries, you’ll be looking at grainy, disgraceful shots whereas from the Hanoi 2009 Saga onwards, the quality of the pictures improved dramatically. To the point of me finding myself licking the screen sometimes. ;)

    for lunch, there are plenty of options, from typical hawker fare, to restaurants and cafes, and even other cuisines.

    Hi Motormouth,

    Been trolling on your site since the old one. Right now, I have a project I’m working on, and would like to tell you a bit more about it. Trying to look for your email, so could you drop me a line? Thanks!

    Finally, you are willing to show us your face (half of it).
    Actually, I prefer the previous version as searching was much easier compared this new domain.
    This one looks a little too complicated… (my personal idea)

    hi Ming Na. glad to see you coming here.
    there’s a search option at the top right, next to the title of the blog.
    just type in anything, and related posts would be listed.
    for Ipoh food, just click on Ipoh food category,
    while Perak food is mostly listed on the toolbar below the header, named Perak Food Hunt.

    hope this helps. :)

    Hello ! I stumbled upon your blog and it has been fascinating! I am an expat Malaysian in NZ and am looking forward to my upcoming xmas hols in my hometown Ipoh. Looking forward to trying some of the new places you have blogged about and you’ve given us lots of ideas of what to do on a lazy day! Take a drive to Sitiawan for makan! thanks

    J2Kfm, it’s my first time dropping by this blog and it’s a shame I have not been here before.
    Before you jump into conclusion, it’s only because I have not been blog hopping much or been searching for good stuff enough.
    I’m a Perakian too and certainly will be using your posts to venture around for food!
    Keep it up too :)

    Thanks Marvin. It is not a shame, really. It’s never too late to discover good, comfort food from the Perak region.
