Much has been said about Ipoh Old Town, such as de most unbelievable best of da best to die for shops run by the founder’s 2nd/or 3rd generations. Which is to say anything that old must be authentic & therefore good ( sorry youngsters ).

Still, some do not convince us. This one here adorned with affectionate newspaper cuttings certainly doesn’ t have what it takes to take the crown as the best beef noodles. No doubt the meat looks medium raw tender & fresh but the all important soup base giving the concoction its unique taste falters.

Best beef noodles in Ipoh?  No sir, we have to look elsewhere.
