品珍酒楼 Pun Chun Restaurant — Restaurant in Perak

Revisited after many years. Reached early at c.7am and we had the entire restaurant to ourselves. Was greeted by a friendly staff who took our orders. We settled for the duck drumstick noodles (both soup and dry versions) as well as a wonton noodle. The duck noodles remain just as good as I can recall. The dry version had the soup and duck drumstick served in a separate steel bowl. This is probably a better option as the soup remained hot for a longer time. The soup version was also good but felt that the soup was a bit more diluted (probably due to the noodles) and was not as hot to my preference. The wonton noodles was really good. Noodle texture was just right - springy yet crunchy. The wonton was really large and had at least 3 prawns within each wonton. The char siew was also good - had requested for a half half cut. We got the coffee as well which was good for the morning caffine fix. Was looking forward to the yam puffs (wu kok) but first serving will only be ready by 9am. Hence, the next time then.

I really liked the old feel of this restaurant. It has been renovated but the vibes remain thankfully. Not warm given still early morning hence comfortable dining experience.

Chatted with the very friendly owner (3rd generation) manning the restaurant. Her hospitality was impeccable and frankly made me and my entourage feeling at home. Bought some biscuits (chicken biscuits [thick version], sakeima and some CNY biscuits. She gave us some complimentary biscuits to take away (not pieces but a whole jar and some more sakeima!). In addition, she gave us a personal invitation for the forthcoming 88th anniversary of this restaurant in mid of 2025 where a major celebration will be in store!

This stop honestly made our day and left us smiling all day. And we will certainly be back again.

Parking is really a challenge. But there are road side parking a few meters away and at the...

We were on our way to Cameron Highlands . We had planned to divert our journey to have our lunch at one of the best heritage restaurants Pun Chun in Bidor . The owners fondly known as Khay and his sister Fun were wonderful hosts . Khay's American wife Phyllis had returned to the US for a short holiday. The place was full as usual. Fun recommended their signature food and cookies to us . We tried the herbal duck soup with wantan mee. It's a special dish popular in Bidor but we found it very tasty 😋 here at Pun Chun. The taro dumplings ( wu gok )were simply mouth watery starters. At the end of the meals , I had my coffee. It was good 👍! You have other great stuff on their original menu if you wish to choose something non signature but still has the fine traditional taste to satisfy your tasty bud ! 😌. Most people don't leave Pun Chun without buying their large choice of fresh cookies and biscuits at the counters for themselves and for their friends. We bought their best selling chicken biscuits crispy and non crispy ones. Also the hiong piah, I prefer the original ones from the caramel as they are crispy and tasty . Khay recommended me to buy their Shat Kek Ma . I found it interesting to have it with my coffee . It's not that sweet after all. Well if you are on the highway its worth taking a diversion for a happy tasty meal 😋 at Pun Chun which has been there at Bidor for more than 40 years. It's not only walking but dining in memory...

Came here on a Sunday evening at about 7pm and find the place still open (Google says it closes at 830pm)

Ordered a Duck Drumstick Soup + dry Wanton Noodles & a bowl of Prawn wanton and a coffee. Paid about RM30ish.

They definitely deserve a better rating in google. For those who complain about the high price, they are probably still living in the stone age. A normal soup (non herbal) can easily cost about RM15 in KL or PJ, moreover this is Duck drumstick with herbal with dried Longan. Just because this is not at city center so ppl are expecting everything to be cheaper. If complain expensive try to raise your own duck to make your own soup.

If not mistaken the Duck drumstick with soup + noodles cost RM18 (I have no complaints) and the wanton RM10.50 for 6pc (there are 2 medium size prawn in each wanton, I think it is worth the price paid if you are a prawn wanton lover)

If given second chance I'll still come here for food, reason being: Not many places serve Duck Soup, support local business I felt hot and rejuvenated after drinking the soup, probably due to the herbal effects The place is only freaking 5mins after exciting Bidor tol. As appose to other places where you need to travel more than 20mins for food.

Only down side is the place is still quite hot despite not many people in the late evening. If install aircond, definitely food price will increase and ppl will...
