Hoi Seng IPOH

It has been a long while since I last posted on food.... unexpected happenings happened and now we (my family) is still adapting to the news that had befallen us. Come last Sunday, we de-stressed and had a dinner out in this newly opened restaurant, just nearby our neighbourhood.

Took my mum, my 2 kids, (sorry AA, u went back a day early), my sister and her husband, 6 of us went to try out this restaurant. From the outside, it was very impressive, it looked kind of neat and trendy...later on, I am sure wedding dinners will be held there during the weekends..

Though the place is impressive, I cannot say so much on the food... for me, it was a rating 6/10, they were recommended by the captain, herself, their specialities...

this one was ok... 8/10

Since it is near my house, I know we will be going there another day, this time, will order different dishes and rate them again..

Hoi Seng Restaurant, no 86, Jalan Dato Lau Pak Khuan, Ipoh.
(If they happen to see me advertise for them, I wonder what they would say.... my ratings doesn't look good to them.... but then again, who am I... lol....)
