Kedai Kopi Kong Meng — Restaurant in Perak

Used to be good during the father’s time. But now under new generation, the portion and recipe got siphoned off. Sometimes can find only miserable 3 little pieces of meat in the charsiew pau unlike the earlier generation which more generous. Other dishes, nothing much to shout about. The place is a bit dilapidated and the cutlery is rustic and tad dirty. There are many other tim sum options in town worth checking out. Also observe the bill calculation. Locals warn me of price fluctuations and deviations in final tally. Personally I have...

One classic dimsum place in Taiping Old Town.

Choices are limited, but food is fresh and tasty. Choices wise I usually go for their hargow, siewmai, lo mai kai and their must have is definitely their char siew pau. Their deep fried items are not too bad too but they are not my personal favorite as I prefer the steamed items

The chee cheong fun was not to my liking though - tasted slight bland, maybe its the Taiping style of CCF.

Their char siew pau is very light and fluffy (I guess I can easily eat half a dozen of them).

Price wise...

The only good dimsum is their char siew bao. Others were quite bland. Another thing, the name of the shop in English is Kong Meng, which is the original name and known by many. However, in Mandarin, they go by a different name. From the picture, for those who read Mandarin, they will immediately realize...why the difference in name? Perhaps someone can ask the owner for some...
