Ipoh Town, Miri

If you've failed geography in school, NO - Ipoh Town is NOT a town in Miri.

West Malaysians are probably familiar with a franchise of eateries called Old Town. It serves fantastic signature delicacies from Ipoh such as hor fun, extra kao white coffee, toast, and half-boiled eggs with bulging and orangy yolks.


Miri has its own version of Old Town!

Sadly, it doesn't serve any hor fun. I think it would be impractical to import hor fun from Ipoh all the way to Miri.

On the other hand, it does serve other reasonably good dishes. Prices range from RM2 to RM7.

Chicken Curry Toast

There isn't any outstanding dish that I personally like. Nevertheless, the dry kueh tiao is a good choice.

In addition, Ipoh Town is an ideal location for an afternoon tea break, in view that food is somewhat scarce here after lunch hour.

Loh Lou Shu Fun

Not forgetting the pride of Ipoh - white coffee .....

Looking at the fact that the white coffee isn't as kao and aromatic as the one at Old Town cafe in West Malaysia, I have a feeling the white coffee here originates from the SUPERMARKET .....
