Foh San Restaurant, Ipoh

One of the most famous dimsum in Malaysia is Foh San. Its business started off way back in 1973 producing mooncakes. With a new premise in the heart of Ipoh city, this majestic building welcomes more customers with modern yet ageless settings. However, dimsum lovers need to be patient while hunting for a table. One of the strategies is to diversify your portfolio, i.e.: get everyone to hunt for a table respectively, rather than just waiting for one, you will get a seat much faster.

Moral of the story: don't put all the eggs in one basket!

Say no further, these are some of the famous dimsum of Foh San:

Supreme prawn dumpling @ har kao

Supreme prawn siew mai

Cha siew pau *yummy*

Siew mai

Steamed beancurd roll

Steamed pork rib

Steamed chicken glutinous rice

Siew loong pau *new item*
