Kampar - food heaven


fun cai or cheong fun - a simple yet fantastic dish the locals love in Kampar

Apologies again, as I have to shelf blogging this week. Sadly, a very good friend's mother passed away on Monday, hence we have been busy with the wake every night and the funeral yesterday.

For those, who miss the food, I have uploaded some pixs I took in a recent trip to Kampar. I was guided by ktx, a fellow blogger who gave me such detailed maps and explanations, that my trip was extremely fruitful. So fruitful, that I have still not uploaded all my pixs....in fact these are just about half of what I took, but do have a look at my
flickr set. Write ups and details on where to get all this scrumptious food will be coming, maybe during the weekend.

  7. j2kfm - that one, the locals seem to know more...very nice despite the simple appearance.

    tanalan2 - yes, ham kok cai in there and I have yet to upload the claypot chicken rice and curry chicken bun pixs.

    wow - a lot of food in Kampar! Definitely worth the drive up.

    ktx - laksa sanggul was good. I love the texture of the noodles and boy was it spicy. Thanks very much for the suggestions and maps!

    Julian - cool, I didn't know that. It's a great place, a bit sleepy but I like it.

    anw4ever99 - they all are!
