Is Ipoh worth a visit?

a bit yay but a bit nay as well.
Ipoh is much like any of the smaller Malaysian towns. Pleasant enough but a bit downmarket as in eat at coffee shops and restaurants in shophouse rows. Ipoh happens to be just the top of the heap of those Malaysian towns. Got some interesting fruits grown there and a bit of interesting food (hor fun) but that's it, unless you can be bothered to try and wander into the wilderness which may make it a bit more interesting.
But don't get lost. Can't really help. Last time I was there was 10-20 years ago...

Thanks bro... I have never been there before... so thought of dropping by and see if there's anything nice other than rubbish temples etc...
where JB is the arsehole of Malaysian towns, Ipoh is probably one of the best. But that's not saying too much...
I go to Ipoh every year. I love it. It reminds me of what singapore was 30 years ago. The food is good and cheap. And the whole town is cantonese. For some reason, Ipoh chinese girls seem to me to be the most beautiful girls in Malaysia. Your kopitiam girl is much better looking then your sinkie office girl. The Cowan Street Ayam towkay and kway teow is awesome. The tow kay is the short tail version, unique to Ipoh. And the kway teow in the soup is great. The chicken is the skinny free range type. Also, Ipoh is the home of the original white coffee. Try that with the kaya toast.
That sounds tempting...ummmm....
Yeah, their chicken/towkay/kway teow is the Ipoh signature dish. Some places like Lou Wong also serve it with a stuffed meatballs in soup. Very delicious. All are kopi tiam. no aircon. U can take the coach from KL to Ipoh. Its very cheap. I have relatives in KL, so I drive to Ipoh with them. I couldn't tell u where to stay, because we stop in Ipoh on the way to Penang and have lunch there.
Thank you very much... Inwas just looking at private car transfer from KL to Ipoh. About $170 bucks

Go to Tanjung Malim, the town at the Selangor-Perak border.

You can take the MRT from KL to Tanjung Malim, maybe stop at Batang Kali in between for bak kut teh. Batang Kali is also the 'backdoor route' to Genting Highlands.

IF u have the time and money,it's always good to go for overseas vacation ,away from stressful sinkeeland.
U can consider going for 4D 3N Ipoh & Pork Dickson Malaysian Package Tour. (Friday Departures). Tour & Sightseeing as per Itinerary.
For further information , contact WTS TRAVEL Booking Hotline : 6466 8558.
Went on a Melaka tour with WTS. Free and easy, you can choose your hotel. Board the bus at JCube. At the end just wait at the hotel lobby for the bus to pick you up.
The bus went through Muar and Merlimau and passed by some plantations and farmlands, not sure if it was a shortcut or they wanted to avoid paying the highway toll. But it was a nice experience.
I like the food in Ipoh. My favourite hotel is the Weil.
Food that I eat - bean sprout chicken, tau foo far and salt baked chicken. Just be adventurous and try anything.
