Guang Ji Ho Fun & Chicken Rice, Jalan San Peng, KL

This would be my 2nd trip. I missed the Char Siew (BBQ Pork) the last round as I arrived late. The other reason most people are here will be because of their Hor Fun (Flat Rice Noodles). The broth with Prawn Oil is too good. And it is very Ipoh in constituents like those good stalls in Old Town Ipoh.






Back to BBQ Pork. The squeamish will find difficulty handling carbonised caramel sticking on to strips of pork. There will always be carbon. Just remove them while on the plate. The fat portions are becoming less of a standard offering nowadays as more and more folks don't know how to appreciate the fat that comes with it. It is increasingly difficult to get fat BBQ Pork nowadays. More often than not, I don't get what I want.

The bowl of Hor Fun is superb. The sweetness of the broth and the fragrance from the prawn oil brought a pleasant remembrance of Ipoh food. The prawn oil was extracted from kilos of shells. It was like the most expensive perfume in on the dressing table and only used sparingly and on special occasions. A rather pleasing moment under the shade of a big tree. I enjoyed it while it lasts.

Indulgence is what encourage by the business. That's where they pile on the extra earnings. We were also taken in by their braised stuff. The chicken feet are a must-have. The thick and light soy sauces took us back to our ethnic roots — a time to savour the familiar taste in every Chinese kitchen. We have the texture of gelatinous feet, the smoothness of the tofu, the firmness of the white and accompanying fluffy yoke from the eggs and finally, the rough yet tender pork slices infused thoroughly with the sauces.

BTW, the owner is from Ipoh.
