THE LAST TIME I WENT TO THIS TAI YOU COFFEESHOP WAS IN 2009.... no joke! When I was still working, I remember my colleagues and I went there quite frequently those days but somehow along the years go by, this shop has been "deleted" from our mind. Oh yeah! Now I remember, the stall which served these dishes in 2009 had changed hands with another, it was previously done by a husband and wife team... then they left and handed over by another man and we did not like to go there after the couple left.....
This was in 2009 and the shop is still more or less the same today.....
Tai You along Jalan Bendahara, Ipoh
Famous for their steamed fish head then....
Green leaves....
And omelette...
Those were what we usually ordered then.....
When I came back from Europe recently, I was taken to this shop again....
Six years later.....
I think the stall has changed hands again... not sure who is who now...
Now it is cooked by an elderly man and helped by a young boy.....
We ordered Bitter Gourd soup....
and I only remember to take picture after drinking half way through..
It was also an enormous fish head....
Price has since increased... of course....
For just two dishes it cost around RM46 with rice for the three of us...
Fish is not cheap nowadays....
Or perhaps we have to wait another 6 years to go there again...
hahhahaha....
No need to wait another 6 years to go back. Anytime also can. But we have many other places to go to now!
ReplyDeleteYes, so many.... KIV....
DeleteSo cheap!!! What fish is that? Such a huge head and less than RM50, cannot find that kind of deal here.
ReplyDeleteOh really? Over here still can get...
Deleteeih?? bittergourd soup again?? I think you thought you had taken a photo, but it was the bittergourd soup yesterday!! haha.. nice simple food but can see they "wok hey".. :)
ReplyDeletehahahaa... I didnt drink them everyday..these are old pictures actually...
DeleteHahaha, wait another 6 years to go back there. If you do that, I think it would have changed hands again. I prefer to eat steamed fish instead of steamed fish head.
ReplyDeleteAny part of the fish is fine with me... as long as lots of ginger!
DeleteMe is no thank you to bittergourd... hehe...
ReplyDeletehahahaha... learn how to eat.. you will like them!
DeleteAgreed. Thank goodness I am not a "fishy" kind of eater. The prices of fishes have shot up astronomically lately. :p
ReplyDeleteYes, people take less red meat...so fish is high in demand...
DeleteSo after changed hands yet again, is the food better?
ReplyDeleteI still prefer the husband and wife team...
DeleteIt's like that lah, when the original people left, we tend to not go back because we are so used to them. But it looks like the food is not bad.
