Lovely Trip to Genting + a stop at Fook Kee Claypot Chic Rice

So so cool.
I'm back again! Missed the weather here so so much. This is another great CNY trip. We have been makan-ing nonstop. Breakfast, brunch, luncheon, tea break, dinner, supper and late night snacks. This time, it's a relaxing trip, we jalan more instead of rushing like the trip before this. 
Too bad there's no loo in the Ripley's Believe It or Not exhibition centre and you know, we can't manage finish exploring the whole place in 2hours. We thought we could spend a little bit more time there. So heads up for you guys, visit the bathroom and limit your water intake 1/2hour before visiting the Ripley's Believe It or Not. If you're going to have details viewing for all items, I say it'll take probably 4-5hours. 

Alright, here are the pictures of foooood & fun we had.

Their lamb shoba are irresistible. The lamb meat are cook with slow fire for 24hours. Superb.

So sorry, forgot to take the picture of the lamb shoba up close. The picture above with the reddish gravy is the one. Will do next time when I visit there again. 


Genting Showroom

We don't have 1901 hotdog in Ipoh, so we decided to give it a try. Not bad. 


This is my favourite Gui Ling Gao. 
(It's a jelly form of Chinese herbs taken together with some honey)

There's a slight bitterness to the taste but it's a soothing kind of bitter. Give it a try, you'll love it. Not forgetting to mention, there's many benefits for frequent consumption (1-2/week). It reduces the internal 'heat' that causes minor illnesses such as flu and fever, it reduces the ache breakouts and goodness for ladies, silky smooth skin. 



Mixed Grill platters in New Orleans Barbeque


Pizza from Pizza factory- One of those yummy ones for the price we paid

Claypot Chicken from Fook Kee, Kampar (en route back to Ipoh) 

This is one of my favourite Claypot Rice. No sticky, uncooked rice, just heavenly fragrance with a dash of stinky salted fish, dried Chinese pork sausage & dazzling spring onion. Some may like the charred rice at the bottom of the claypot, I personally don't fancy that. I like the smell of the charred pot, but not my rice. That is why I prefer Fook Kee over Heng Kee (another Claypot round the corner). Try Google Fook Kee Chicken Claypot Rice, Kampar. I am sure you'll find tonnes of post about it. 
Oh ya, they are open from 6pm to 10.30pm and closed on every Wednesday.

That's all for this round. Would love to post about all these food again in the future, hoping they taste the same or at least 99.9% the same. =P
