Kuala Kangsar Famous Laksa Pak Ngah

June 18, 2010 | 14,457 views

Finally it’s the weekend again, eh? If you’re heaving a sigh of relief, rest assured you’re NOT alone on this. Yesterday, we went for a short excursion to Kuala Kangsar, the Royal Town of Perak situated about half an hour away from Ipoh. You can reach this town using the North-South highway, exiting at Kuala Kangsar/Gerik (Timur) toll exit, OR you can opt to use the trunk road that connects Chemor-Sungai Siput-Salak-Enggor-Kuala Kangsar. Scenic, yet a little mundane ……

Kuala Kangsar Famous Laksa

The famous Laksa Pak Ngah of Kuala Kangsar; since 1955. That’s a couple of years BEFORE independence, people!

Earlier we had our lunch at Sudut Nyonya Restaurant; possibly the only Nyonya restaurant in town. Or anywhere outside of Ipoh in the state of Perak, for that matter. A satisfying meal nonetheless, we were still craving for more. I had the urge to try the popular Pak Ngah Laksa behind of Tsung Wah secondary school. Just ask anyone (especially your Malay friends) from Kuala Kangsar or beyond, and I’m sure most would agree that a visit to this royal town is never complete without a packet or two (or dozens of them, from what we saw) of Pak Ngah laksa back home ….

Kuala Kangsar in a Whirlwind

August 18, 2009 | 9,990 views
Kuala Kangsar – The Royal Town of Perak, Malaysia. Not a destination listed in a common tourist’s itinerary. Easily accessible from the highway, though not necessarily translates to higher traffic. A simple town in general, it was only my third visit to the comparatively serene town.

Yut Loy Coffee Shop (read about them from rasarasa.net) has been in existence for more than 50 years now, spanning three generations of the Chong family. A ‘MUST’ stopover for outsiders in town, for a taste of their traditional (and immensely popular) Hainanese pau, coffee/tea, and even Hainanese chicken chop, steak, or fried rice.

Freshwater Fish,Fishballs & Frogs (?!) @ Restoran Baru Lau Kai, Sauk

August 6, 2009 | 19,762 views
continuation from Motormouth in Betong ….
If you’ve absolutely NO idea where Lenggong or Gerik is, then I highly doubt you’re familiar with the town named Sauk in the district of Kuala Kangsar, Perak.
It so happened the night market was in full swing that rainy evening.
On the way back from Betong, we stopped over in Gerik for a fruit feast, walloping durians, rambutans, pulasan, and longans. All thanks to mboy’s landlord, who was being more than generous and enthusiastic in sharing his treasure stash of tropical fruits in his house, mostly given by friends/relatives and those who own farms around Hulu Perak.
Talk about some guys have all the luck. Here in Ipoh, to be given a ‘Mau San Wong’ (a rather highly-prized species of the durian) for FOC sounds like a typical scratch-n-win contest. You know there’s a catch somewhere. Read the rest of this entry »
