Kampar is a little town in Perak and it’s famous for UTAR (Universiti Tunku Abdul Rahman) but I never know what food they are famous of. Haha. Recently, I went to a coffee house at Pulau Tikus, near to the market there and found out a Claypot Chicken Rice from Kampar. It’s featured on the Chinese newspaper according to mom and I ordered a set for 2 for lunch.
It came in a big pot. A nice egg is placed on top of the rice and it’s cooked with the heat from the very hot claypot rice. We have to mix it with the rice before taking out to eat. Well, it’s not a bad one but with extra lap cheong (Chinese sausage) then I think it would be nice.
Do go and check it out if you are a claypot chicken rice fan. =)

I am not really a fan of Loh Mee but I like to eat Loh plus Hokkien Mee which is Loh Cham Thng. My dad likes Loh Mee and he always bring me along to this coffee shop at Jalan Jones (at corner of the junction of Jalan Jones and Jalan Burma) to eat Loh Mee in the morning, and now I introduces this place to you.
My dad likes it, my mom likes it and because I am not a fan of Loh Mee, but it still taste good to me. From what I’ve known, a lot of people come here for Loh Mee breakfast in the morning. =)
It was the Chinese Nine Emperor God Festival, it’s a kind of Taoism tradision and belief, some people have been eating vegetarian food for the past 9 days. As for me, I only ate it on the last day of Nine Emperor God Festival and it was yesterday.
Vegetarian food stall have been set up during the festival and have be pulled down because the festival has past. Fearing that the food stall is already closed on the last day, we went to a vegeterian restaurant to be safe to eat some nice vegetarian food for dinner.
It is an all time restaurant selling vegetarian food, no meat located in Pulau Tikus on Jalan Cantonment right opposite Maybank. You will see a big yellow logo writing a Chinese word 素 (mandarin:su1) which mean vegetarian. The restaurant name is called Evergreen Vegetarian Restaurant.
Because it was the Nine Emperor God Festival, there’s a lot of people there eating out. It’s self service, get your food, pay right away and look for your own seat.
I didn’t eat rice for that dinner. I ordered a vegetarian Char Hor Fun (Fried Hor Fun). It’s just replacing the meat and prawn with tao pok and a vegetarian food that taste like meat. The Char Hor Fun taste is still there I got to tell you that this is quite nice. Good try for me.
Mom then got some food for us as side dish. It’s all vegetarian and we got vegetable, crispy vegetarian meat (like the meat in burger), something that taste like char siew and another one that taste like fish. The taste is getting a little bit same like the real meat but then I believe in the future, there will be artificial meat which is from animal. Though, there’s a lot of chemical in making these, so it’s better to stay we the greens.
In addition for your reference, you can take a look at the vegetarian dish served during the Nine Emperor God Festival. =)

It was nice Koay Teow Thng at Pulau Tikus Market and now, it is nice Wan Tan Mee at Pulau Tikus Market.
Well, I got to say that it is nice. You can ask for fried wan tan instead of cooked one. I prefer fried wan tan, it’s more crispy but then some people don’t like it. The noodle is nice and I recommend this at Pulau Tikus market food stalls area.
