I’ve always wanted to buy Tai Kau Meen from this stall for a long time. After digging my old post, i found out that i blogged about this Tai Kau Meen stall slightly more than a year ago, lol. This Tai Kau Meen stall is located right outside Nam Heong Coffeeshop along Jalan Bandar Timah at Ipoh Oldtown. Nam Heong Coffeeshop is the coffeshop right opposite Sin Yoon Loong (where you get Ipoh’s Best White Coffee).

We seldom dine around this area as looking for a parking space can be hellish unless we go there after 2pm. We were passing by when suddenly, i just wanted to buy Tai Kau Meen. So, i asked hubby to drive a big round back to the stall.

The Tai Kau Meen here is sold at 60 cents each. It’s not the thin-crust type, but rather, has some bite to it. And here’s the seller pouring some batter onto the hot plate. What’s there to do when one is waiting for food, right. Take out my Nokia N82 and snap away lorr. He didnt mind though.

A close up of the batter cooking on the hot-plate…

He’ll then spoon a dollop of margarine onto the somewhat cooked pancake. After that, he’ll add some creamy corn onto it.

Here, the seller is seen lifting the cooked batter from the hot-plate in swift movements.

See… the corn getting heated up on top of the Tai Kau Meen. I cannot remember when he sprinkled the coarse sugar onto it. It could be before he added the margarine or after the creamy corn or or or dunno lah, lol. Maybe after the grounded peanuts thimm, lol. Hubby honked and i walked back to the car mah….

Anyway, here’s how the inside of the Tai Kau Meen is like. It’s supposed to be eaten folded in half. I ate it in the car. It’s best eaten right at the coffeeshop with your favorite beverage like Oldtown White Coffee of course, haha. Reason is, the Tai Kau Meen will soften really fast and lose its crunch once it’s placed into the plastic bag. Boh ooomph lorr, haimai. So, better dont tapau (takeaway), hoh.

Dying for a bite yet? Go buy some from him, okay. And to my movie addicts, hope you all enjoy the daily updates, ya. Dont forget to add me to Twitter, ya.
