As some of you had seen my previous blog of Cameron trip where we had successfully conquered 3 mountains ; Brinchang, Irau and Perdah, on 25 Oct 2008. Well, after the exciting trip in Cameron, while sending one of our friends back to his home in Ipoh, we then decided to have a short trip there, including to taste some of the local famous food and to conquer another small hill in Menglembu.
One of the stalls in a hawker centres found making a special bread.
The finished product with chicken fross and mayonnaise in it, very delicious !
Yummy abc ……
Japanese style chee cheong fun or by translation…..”Pig Long Powder” 
Thai style “Pig Long Powder”
There are variety choices of food we can enjoy over here, near the old big tree, it’s quite famous when you ask around the local people.
After some food, we were heading to have our famous old town white coffee.
White coffee, actually not in white color but only the name of it.
Having coffees with “kaya”, (one type of sweet jam made from eggs and sugar) bread make it a perfect yet simple afternoon tea.
Sharing our stories while enjoying the good taste of coffee and bread. I think this could be our routine gathering when we come to the age of 60′s to 70′s when all our children grow up, just like those old people who normally gather at coffee shop.
After our coffee break, we headed to the popular Kledang Hill (red circle), near menglembu, Ipoh.
The journey has just begun…
The rest house built at the top of the hill.
With some comfortable chairs ready for you to rest and enjoy the fresh air.
The panorama view taken from the summit (about 400m).
Another great view of the whole of Menglembu town.
As you can see, the steps are not easy to walk, be careful when you go down from the hill.
We had our delicious dinner at this restaurant, in case you understand Chinese words, another name of this restautant is called “Big Little Leg”.
There is a reason why it called “Big Little Leg”, this restaurant famous foods are Pig Leg and Chicken Leg. Pig is bigger than the chicken, that’s why it called Big Leg and The Chicken is named Little Leg. Now you know why this restaurant has this unique name 
Apart from the 2 main dishes, it also has black source Tofu (bean curd).
Ipoh famous “Kuey Teow” soup.
Yong Tau Foo, which I think is more popular in Ampang, KL. But now there are many restaurants in Malaysia also use the name of “Ampang Yong Tau Foo”.Isn’t life like this ? When your brand is famous, people will start using it for marketing.
We had our last dinner at this popular restaurant in Ipoh before heading back to KL.
