This is by far the most interesting history and i absolutely fully agree with you on some of the statement you made . The food you recommended really makes me want to go taiping !! This is surely be on my list to visit soon ! Thank you again Elmo for another great video
A great episode featuring Taiping's food stalls and also a summary of it's historical events and places of interest. I enjoyed and had a good laugh when featuring/illustrating the dessert stall at one of the Larut Matang hawker stalls where you "joked" that probably the Uncle was only able to make 5 types of kuih ( instead of the usual 12 varieties) as he may not have enough of sleep on that particular day. Adding in - (in your comment) after operating the kuih business for 50 years or so - you can't blame him for oversleeping !!! I burst into great laughter- good one Elmo. Again- thank you for making a good and memorable video in Taiping.
Another great review!! I always love the introduction about the historical records!! Refesh my school days history of Malaya!! Of course your recommendation of eating places are always noted!! Excellent!!
Thanks again for your video... a good hybrid mixed of food and history. I always learn some thing new from your research....that Taiping is the wettest town in Msia.
When I saw your videos on Teluk Intan and Kampar, I thought you were doing a food crawl in Perak, going norther each week, thought it was gonna be Pantai Remis / Sitiawan / Pangkor next. Very pleasantly surprised when you featured Taiping, I have relatives there and I showed this video to them, they very much enjoyed it. 1:40, the aerial view made them remark on how the town has changed since the 80s, paused at that moment for 5 minutes just to have fun identifying all the new landmarks and getting our bearings. 9:36, this one had my relatives lamenting, apparently it was twice the size for half the price back in the good'ol days 15:49, the best popiah according to my relative in Penang, he'd travel to this stall just to eat it when he fancied
Taiping is one of my fav town in Malaysia ! Laid back and always raining and speaking of good food, I think my friend's dad used to sell wan tan mee @ Larut Matang hawker centre
We went to all the foodie haunts you suggested. Some of the food were just average (according to our taste), we are very thankful for your suggestions as you have provided us addresses to try out new stalls (we are from Melbourne). We have been watching and following your reviews for a long time and we really like your introductions and commentaries. Thank you, Elmo. 👌
Thanks for reviewing Taiping, Elmo! Just want to highlight some foodie places you missed out; 1) Raex rojak and Lok Lok 2) Penang Western Corner chicken chop at Hawker centre. 3) Pork satay at Larut Matang hawker centre. 4) Assam laksa at golden corner. 5) duck egg fried kuey teow in simpang( a few good ones) 6) Smoked chicken and char siew at Central(beside St.Georges secondary school)
Awesome history in Malaysia that is underappreciated by some folks. Many thanks for not only for a good food tour, but also some light of the Malaysian history too.
still no tan sri from this town compare to a very small town Pantai Remis nearby .Luckily we have the first female doctor soo kim lan(hakka).cantonese like loke yew and hakka moved to kl after the war.
Hello Mr. Lee thank U for intro the food and history of Taiping Malaysia l heard that 4D is popular in Singapore and Malaysia Taiping citizens played the game of guessing the license plate number and invented the popular 4D in Singapore and Malaysia today 🇲🇾 🤝 🇸🇬 one family 👍 ！
we went to the food center in Taiping on May 19th, Thursday at about 10 am......... alas , many stores in this video was either closed or sold out . we did not ask other stalls why that was the case. the CKT of stall 83 was very good...... suggest you could add the operating hours of the places you visited in your video. tks.
🌷 Memories of the historically rich town of Taiping (1st capital of Perak) keep flooding back. Undeniably, my History books din specifically mention the glorious fact that Malaya proudly became the RICHEST country in SEA; ALL BECOZ of the hard work & dedication of the Chinese miners & rubber tappers. The Chinese INDEED made a HUGE impact on Malaya's economy. Heart-rendingly, this startling effort isn't reflected in MSIAN history & instead came the shameful term of 'pendatang'. How sad ... So besides savouring the good food, I guess a visit to Chang Chun Pu Villa sounds interesting ... in memory of Father Sun Yat Sen. Taiping Keeps Good Food & History Alive.
We are not pendatang, we were invited by the government of those days which was under the British Ruled and we help greatly in bringing up the Tin Mining Business, farming, chinese medicine, concept of societies and clubs of the same surname and district in China, and most of all school system, best chinese food stalls, small industries and etc. We are never the Pendatang.
Yr friend sure do know his best eatery shops around Taiping. As far as 18th mile Sipitanf was concerned , the curry noddle soup was made with prawns shells. This curry Mee type exist no where else in Taiping ! Since restaurant kakak has retired, , another alternative had sprouted up namely the Golden Corner, along it's gold Smith lane . Regrettably, you d missed out the best "Lai Fun " stall in tajping. It goes extremely well with their simple chilly sauce. No Lai Fun bowl can do without 3 spoonfull of chilly sauce . While at pokok Adam, you must never. Miss out on the Assam. Noddle soup. Lastly you had the name wrong . No where else can you find fried noddles , it's called fried Hoo Hee, it was fried kui teow with soup. Non of which can be experience in KL. It is an exclusive dish only found in Taiping, not even in Penang !. Yes giving you a thumbs up here cos you did a spot on take of Taiping food ! Wonderful take . Their coffee still is the cheapest in Msia.
I should say u are really Tony Lee punya abang. Sad to say uncle Tony retired already. So hardly see him around nowadays. But he goes to ipoh very often.
damn, looks like I still have a long way to learn about Malaysia even though I'm a Malaysian myself lol, honestly I appreciate locals more maybe someday I'll visit here on my own after getting my feet back up after the pandemic subsides
@@malaysiafood328 i like your video honestly, you share the history behind the place and simple review enough for me to discern the quality of it, i like it
@@malaysiafood328 Wong Mun Ho's brother? But it was an exceptional and unfortunate incident, which can happen anywhere. It may not need to have ended that way. Bless him and his wife.
I still think My fav wan tan mee I tried was from a stall in Rasah Jaya, Seremban ( I was 12 yrs old then)what but is even more you can't get those food in Malaysia right now is they had a chettiar mess behind Puncha Emas (that's what it was called then, now not sure) which was the best Tamil Chettinad food I ever tried and even better than many places I tried in Tamil Naadu state itself. It's sad that so much Malay, Chinese and Indian good food are no more
@@malaysiafood328 i really think it's more than that. For eg:- I know many good chinese stalls that their own children wont want to continue with so no matter what corners you cut wont change that fundemental issue, I mean Malaysia still ok but look at the good food that we going to lose from Singapore because there is no substitute....more of a capitalism problem :) we need some better gov.
Ok I was wrong about the Malay food (no racism here) but the variety now is better...again the positive/negative that reflects on our gov policies but then again why if not racism? that's just my 2 bit. Don't get me wrong, I love Malay food too.
Pls do not be offended. Usually I ask my wife ordering food as I dun wan to see bare hand preparing food and receiving money 😆. However, no one got stomach upset. I guess probably they handling large amount of food and sold out in a short time.
Alluring delicacy and interesting history make the good pair. That's why your programs are worth looking forward to. Good job, Elmo!
Thanks for the compliment John
Just love the historical introduction of each town you visited. Looking forward to the next episode. Thank you.
Thanks mate hope everyone accepts me like u

Thank you Mr Lee for such valuable video clip, however there is a mistake in the video clip time 1.49minute, name of Taiping is Klian Pauh.
Oops thanks for pointing out on my spelling mistake

又上一課，梗要👍
在太平停留更长时间，在甘文丁、瓜拉江沙、新邦等郊区提供有竞争力的住宿和寄宿家庭，延伸到麦克斯韦山，寻找隐藏的天堂美食家、茶和咖啡以及寺庙等。太平是一个成长中的城市可以找到它的地方昔日的辉煌，以及“文物建筑与湖滨园林”，是西方人与园林的典范。
哇，听落好似仲有下集喔…… 😅
这集介绍都几到位的😉👍🏻

谢谢介绍

Is it possible to travel around Taiping via Grab? Thinking of visiting Taiping from Penang for a day trip.
Yes it's possible
In Johor we call 豆腐花
Yeah, each locality has the uniqueness of Tai Gao Min/Apom. Penang included
Tai gao min is a simple but nice delicacy
Enjoyed this. Didn't popiah originated from Taiping?
Maybe but it's from the north for sure, thanks
I think it is possible that Taiping has the best food in Malaysia
Thanks Bob I agree

63号炒鱼丸粉没吃到就真是可惜了。
有點可惜
是63号才对
那是只有太平才有的味道
全马独一无二的潮式鱼丸粿条尽然没吃到，然后跑去吃普通的炒粿条，还叫它太平美食？！😂😂😂
我当然喜欢另外那挡至少他们没放鱼丸
I stay I taiping. But your kawan taking u I think not from taiping. No taipi g taste. Many more places in taiping to eat
建议作者提到全马很多第一都在太平时，请参考一下，什么是FMS（Federal Malay State) 第一，什么是MP(Malay Peninsular) 。
过去也有看过一些文章，提到马来西亚的第一个警察部队在太平成立。我叫那作者参考一下，槟城乔治市的英国人，什么时候成立警察部队。还有太平是全马最早的城市，那就要参考一下，槟城乔治市，成立的年份。我对马来西亚历史研究不深，请多多指教。
不是第一警察部队，是警察局，太平市，没槟城早成立是因为太平内乱，内乱结束了才成立，而太平是清朝末代时就存在了，官方承认的第一只有30个，后来又加了几个未证实的，现在网络查到的是33个，一些白目人篡改的

Used to be, but of late, their prices has been on the steady increase and of times, can even rival the price in KL
是最便宜的， 應該沒錯
