MyIpoh (\u6021\u4fdd) is an authentic Malaysian dining concept offering traditional Ipoh heritage cuisine. Known for “grandma-approved” recipes, the restaurant specialises in iconic Ipoh comfort foods like chicken hor fun<\/em>, curry mee<\/em>, nasi lemak<\/em>, and signature Ipoh White Coffee. Started in Mid Valley Megamall in Kuala Lumpur, MyIpoh opened its second outlet in Mid Valley Southkey Mall<\/a><\/strong>, in Johor Bahru, in October 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I tried MyIpoh Chicken Hor Fun with Portion Chicken (\u6021\u4fdd\u9c9c\u867e\u6cb3\u7c89\u914d\u5355\u4eba\u4efd\u9e21) with a cup of Honey Lemon on my first visit. The dish is very similar to MyIpoh Chicken Hor Fun with Prawn (\u6021\u4fdd\u9c9c\u867e\u6ed1\u9e21\u6cb3\u7c89) except that the poached chicken is replaced with a dish of boneless chicken drumstick in oil and soy sauce. It is like eating Ipoh chicken hor fun<\/em> (without chicken) and poached chicken rice (without rice). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ipoh-style chicken hor fun<\/em> is usually served with boneless poached chicken meat and prawns on Ipoh-made sar hor fun<\/em> in a broth made from boiling chicken bones and prawn shells. Even without the “original” chicken meat, it is still a delicious bowl of chicken hor fun<\/em> with rich flavours all in the sweet-savoury, prawny broth. The large amount of garnishes (spring onions, scallions, fried shallots) enhances the broth with more light flavours, making the dish flavourful and tasty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The single-portion boneless chicken drumstick served in oil and soy sauce and garnished with scallions has a nice fragrance. The yellowish skin of the kampung<\/em> chicken is smooth and the meat is very tender with savoury flavours from the oil-sauce, yet not overly salty. This is so good and I will want to try their chicken rice next time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MyIpoh Kopitiam really serves some delicious and tasty Ipoh dishes and the staff are very friendly. I will want to go back for more of their Ipoh specialties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
