CHINESE STREET FOOD TO TRY IN XIN QIAN SHUI WAN, TELUK INTAN, PERAK, MALAYSIA

Hi foodies,

Here is another place that I went for food hunt in Teluk Intan.  Restoran Xin Qian Shui Wan is a shop with many Chinese street food that only opens at night.  The price for the food is quite affordable but since it was in 2016 I just cannot remember the exact price for the food. Please excuse me since I can't remember much having too much to do and I am just not really an organised person.

There are many choices and everything is good in Restoran Xin Qian Shui Wan, Teluk Intan, Perak, Malaysia =).  So, here is the Chinese street food to try in Teluk Intan, Perak, Malaysia.  You can also something like this in Penang and other place since it is Chinese food XD.  I am recommending some of the food that I like.

Popiah Basah, Chinese street food to try in Teluk Intan, Perak, Malaysia
Popiah Basah

Popiah basah is literary translated to wet salad.  People here just called it popiah.  This is not the fruit salad but it contains bean sprout, crunchy crackers, red sauce, tofu and vegetables.  It might look small on the picture but eating one is going to make you full. I really like because the sauce is very well blended with all the vegetables and it taste good although it is just vegetable

Laksa

Laksa here is one of the best in Teluk Intan.  It has the sweet sour taste with a lot of ingredients in it.  There is fish in it which is hard to find now.  If you like spicy, then laksa should be something to try.

Prawn cracker and yam cakes

Prawn cracker and yam cakes. The yellow one is the prawn cracker which is also one of my favourite Chinese street food.  This is particular delicious.  The yam cake is soft and nice. Chinese Yam cake is unlike western cakes which is sweet. Chinese cakes are not sweet. They are mostly either bland, a bit salty or very tone down.

Char keow teow which is stir-fried ricecake strips which is really good.  It is the only one that I will eat with beansprouts in it because I dislike bean sprouts cooked in other ways.  The portion is small but it is really good and comes on banana leaves.  Make sure to try it when you are in Malaysia.

Ham chien or cockles omelette.  It is a pretty common Chinese street food which I usually do not eat since I do not like cockles.  I usually eat the oyster omelette or the lala omelette.  They are pretty good and smell good.

Luo han guo
Luo han guo (罗汉果) or the scientific name is Siraitia grosvenorii which is a drink for cooling the body. It is use as medicinal to treat sore throat and cough.  It is naturally sweet which is why I like it.

FOOD REVIEW ON ROJAK AH CHAI TELUK INTAN, PERAK, MALAYSIA

Hi,

Here is a review to a place that many will get recommend when they are in Teluk Intan.
However, the stalls is now passed down to their children generation.  However, still I like to just let you know what I think about Rojak Ah Chai, Teluk Intan since I receive some comments on the food is not as delicious as what bloggers or TV food channel mentioned.

Rojak Ah Chai, Teluk Intan

It is by the road side so I don't really fancy eating it at the stalls.  This is my first time having it there so I will suggest you to do takeaway than eating there.

Rojak Ah Chai, Teluk Intan
Rojak Ah Chai, Teluk Intan
There are only drink and rojak.  So not ad visible to eat that only for lunch or dinner.

Coconut juice.  It is alright. It does get water down by adding sugar in it.

Rojak Ah Chai, Teluk Intan
Rojak Ah Chai, Teluk Intan
Here is the rojak. Rojak is a salad fruits mixed into it and adding a little of the crunchy fried crackers. The one I have here is only the pineapple, crunchy crackers, sliced guava and jicama turnip.  It does have a special sauce in it which is the star of this stalls actually.

Rojak (fruit salad) is just meant as tea time or as snack so do not eat this in the morning as meals or else one will have stomach after that because pineapple does contains acid.  What I like the most about this stall is actually the crunchy crackers that I don't get else where for fruit rojak.

The place is actually near a primary Chinese school SRKJ(C) San Min 1 so it is easy to find this place.


Product retails for
Rojak RM4.50 or RM5
Drink RM1.50

This place actually means Three Uncles... Okay, so must think that now what kind of dark place I am introducing you.

So, here is the shop.hahaha. This is place for vampires..no, I am joking.

Here the famous Chee Cheong Fan.  It is also one of the must eat food if you are in Teluk Intan.  The locals usually comes here because it taste better than the other one(Wee Kei) in Jalan Bedamar.  It is called pig intestine but it is not made from that.  It is made from flour and pork. You eat it with pickled green chillies.

Gingko Biloba with barley Sam Siew Yeh Chee Cheong Fan

Gingko Biloba with barley.   Those flakes that you see is those shredded tofu skin. It is traditional warm dessert. It is slightly sweet and is one of my favourite Cantonese dessert (tong sui).  Women usually loves this as gingko biloba helps with anti ageing XD.  There is taste of ginger inside it to balance out the 'cold' energy just in case there are some people that can't eat this.

Bubur Cha Cha Sam Siew Yeh Chee Cheong Fan
Bubur Cha Cha


This is called Bubur Cha Cha.  No idea why it is called Cha Cha but bubur actually means porridge. It doesn't contain rice though.  It is white because that is coconut milk.  It has sweet potato and sago.  Sago is basically tasteless but it look small transparent so it is not visible on the photos.  It is a dish from Indonesia I think.


Overall, Sam Siew Yeh Chee Cheong Fan is a place for Chinese eatery if you are interested in Chee Cheong Fan and Cantonese Desserts.  I wanted to take photos of the price but then the kids are blocking the huge menu on the walls so sorry for that.  If you can't read the words, there are pictures.  It is a great place to hang out just for the Chinese Dessert XD.

Chee Cheong Fan RM4.50
Bubur Cha Cha RM2.50
Gingko Biloba with barley RM2.50

FOOD REVIEW KEDAI KOPI AH WAH TELUK INTAN

Hi,
Bringing you to where early birds go for breakfast in Teluk Intan, Perak, Malaysia.  This is where locals go for breakfast in the morning because of the tasty Chinese style Mee Rebus.  It is situated near the St.Anthony primary school(its in the first picture XD) and Convent primary school so it is kind of hidden.  Here is where you get good Hailam coffee.  Hailam clan(one of the Chinese clans) are known to make really good traditional Chinese coffee.
The coffee is different from the western Americano or Latte because of the secret blends.  So, let's go and visit here.

Here is the Kedai Kopi Ah Wah, Teluk Intan. It is situated at Jalan Sungai Nibong.

Mee Rebus
This is their Chinese style Mee Rebus. What is good about their Mee Rebus is their Prawn crackers are super crispy and tasty.  As for the portion it is small but some people probably need to order the big portion plates to be truly satisfied eating. There eggs, potato, bean sprouts and orange sauce.  It is spicy, sourish and sweet at the same time.

Overall, service is fast and the place is clean.  Food is also great.  Just that one might need to wait if there are too many people since most comes with family.

Price:
Mee Rebus RM4.00
Coffee RM1.50

FOOD REVIEW NASI KANDAR CHANGKAT JONG TELUK INTAN, PERAK, MALAYSIA

Hi foodies,
Here is a popular halal eatery called Nasi Kandar Changkat Jong Teluk Intan, Perak, Malaysia which is one of the popular place to go eat.  It is near an open space so you can just park any place that you and then choose the rice and choose your own dishes.

My friend took chicken with some dahl sauce and chicken eggs.  The sauce are free so pick whichever sauce that you like. Just becareful some sauce are super spicy.  The chicken are prepared before with some spices which makes the distinctive taste. The chicken used to tasted even better in the past XD.

Nasi Kandar Changkat Jong
Nasi Kandar Changkat Jong
This is asam boi drink.  It is especially nice on hot humid day in Malaysia. They don't special make drink for you so choose from the ready made drinks at the counter XD.


This is a nice family place to eat if you do not mind a lot of people but everything is self service so some people may not like. The price are reasonable so it is a good place to have your lunch.  I would say that is this is once of the popular Nasi kandar (something like a mix rice) place to have meals.  Seller in the past used to carry the meals all on bamboo poles and that is how the name came. However, no romantic environment as there is no scenery to see and decoration are just very direct to the point which is to have lunch.

So, if you like a place to eat, good Halal food and simple South East Asian food, come here =) .


Product retails for
It depends on what you take. RM5-10 (rice+chicken).
Drinks around RM1- RM2

Pulut Bakar, Bar Bee Nyonya Kuih
This is the aunthetic Pulut Bakar (grilled glutinous rice) . Rest assure about the colouring as they use colouring from a blue flower plant.  The beautiful blue colour comes from that flower and it is in fact good for eyes.  Inside the Pulut Bakar contains dried fine shrimp which is really nice.  It is wrap with banana leaves. Mmm, so delicious.
