Ipoh Noodle 17 怡記菜園雞沙河粉 — Restaurant in Petaling Jaya

There are many types of disabled, and I am one of them, an OKU but looked like normal, seeing the free meal promotion banner hung in front for all OKU in conjunction with their 16yrs anniversary celebration, so i went in, at first i reluctant to eat for free hence i ordered one portion to be taken away for wife and paid cash, then i asked for my portion for free, the lady in counter looked like didn't believe that i m oku even i did show my oku card from wallet, she insisted to check my oku card in case if i cheated her rm7 noodles, heartbroken...so i gave her to hold and view very clearly my disabled card, then I sat down for free lunch which I thought, after finished my lunch i went to collect my take away which i have already paid for my wife, however i was told that what i had just ate there was the bill?! I didn't get it so i asked again, she double confirmed again that what i paid for taking away was used for paying my lunch eaten there, i couldn't get it but she insisted that i have just ate and paid for my lunch, no free even banner written free for all OKU, i don't want to argue with them cause not that i couldn't pay but just don't want to take advantage from people at first and paid for taking away prior to sit for my lunch, but it seems that the lady was taking advantage on me even OKU too!!! Heartbroken again.... I walked away quietly and slowly, took my car away but i decided to go back to request them to keep away the misleading free meal banner for all OKU and i told them not because i couldn't pay but you're confusing me, then she replied what i ordered and paid was for taking away at first however when i asked to dine in for free so she has to charge me since my order was written take away but sat for meal afterwards, does it make sense? If you're charging me an OKU for dine in then you shouldn't hang the banner free for all OKU, if you accept me as OKU that can dine in for free then you should either pack me the take away or refund me but not until i requested them to take down the banner!!! It seems that they're not sincerely in treating underprivileged group and selective cum discriminative on each disabled...What a joke! I will never ever visiting this restaurant again, and hoping all OKUs out there keeping your heart well by not going there for free foods unless you wanted to be fooled around and bullied.

Further reply to the owner answer below written today (18/6/22):

First, i paid for take away, Second, i shown u my oku card for free dine in. Why did u charge me for dine in? Please don't tell me that you don't know how to do and want me to teach you. Just look into the problem why u charged me for dine in when u knew i am oku? Answer this right to the point and please don't try to mix up the scenario and find way to escape.

残疾人有很多种，我也是其中之一，一个OKU但看起来很正常的人，路过看到这家怡记有免费送鸡丝河粉给所有OKU享用的16周年庆典横幅，所以我走进去了，一开始我很不情愿要免费吃人家的食物，所以我另外点了一份给妻子说要带走并付了现金，然后我才要了我的一份免费oku午餐，柜台的女士看起来不相信我是 oku 即使我从钱包出示了我的 oku 卡 ，但她坚持要检查我的 oku 卡，以防我骗了她的 rm7 鸡丝河粉，这让我很沮丧，我去搭地铁巴士是从来不用交oku卡到对方的手里的...但我不想让她以为我是冒充的，所以让她拿着并非常清楚地查看我的残疾卡，然后我以为我可以坐下来享用免费午餐，妳懂不懂一个看起来不像oku的要花多大的决心才能坐下来吃免费给残疾人的餐点吗？妳懂不懂很多时候我都不会把车park 进残疾人士专属的车位吗？因为那是除了要有很大的决心和认知，承认自己是残疾之外，就是顾虑旁人的眼光了。

吃完我的午餐后，我去取我已经付钱给我妻子的外卖，但是我被告知我刚吃的鸡丝河粉就是本来付款了要打包的外卖？！

我不明白，所以我又问了一遍，她再次确认我本来付钱要打包的已经用来支付我在那边的堂食，我还是不明白为何oku 不是免费堂食吗？ 但她坚持说我刚吃了那份本来是打包的单子，打包的单子就得收钱，就算是oku也没有免费的，免费给所有 OKU 吃的，写在横幅上的只是堂食，那么我刚刚不是堂食了吗？为何又要付钱？ 我不想争论不是因为我付不起钱，而是不想一开始就从别人那里占便宜，所以在坐下之前先付款打包一份给家人，但似乎这位女士却利用了我的用心并不领情，再一次又心碎了……

我安静而缓慢地走开，把我的车开走了，但我还是决定回去要求他们取下那具误导性宣传说给oku免费套餐的横幅，我告诉他们不是因为我付不起，而是妳让我感到困惑，她却回答我说当我要求免费oku 堂食的时候，她已经开了我一开始付款的外卖单，外卖单是要付费的，这个我明白，所以她收取我的费用，但后来我要堂食她只能外卖单来对账？这是什么意思！？

那么妳所宣传说给所有oku免费套餐的横幅还有意义吗？如果是免费的，我付了外卖一份但过后选择堂食，为何妳不另外打包一份给我带走难道oku 就不能付钱打包吗？如果选择堂食，不可打包难道不能回退钱给我吗？

如果妳坚持向我收取堂食费用，那么妳就不应该悬挂残疾人士免费用餐横幅，如果妳接受我作为oku可以用餐的话, 那么妳就不应该收费，应该马上退回钱给我，不然就照我所付的钱打包另外一份才对，不是吗？

外卖要付款是一回事，堂食免费是另一回事，这么简单的道理，为何却硬要让大家都难堪，让妳难看？

最后，反正我打包再堂食是付费的，当我要求他们拿走那具误导性免费给oku...

Warmly (both the atmosphere and the great taste) of the Ipoh Hor Fun in Petaling Jaya. I wish I have discovered this place long ago.

👍🏼

1. The taste of the Dried Version of Hor Fun (ideally, consider ordering the noodle without the meat etc) is superbly out of this world. The sauce is well mixed enough to cause one to keep taking more in. Without realizing in a short period of time, the noodle runs out.

2. Sauce consists of caramelized taste of the thick soya sauce is mixed to the perfection. To confirm such curiosity in terms of the consistency, we ordered another bowl, it tastes as good as the first one we had.

3. The porched chicken comes with not too salty sauce. Unlike most other places, one could not help but tastes a lot of soya sauce. Here, I believe the team has added soup or water to reduce the saltiness.

4. Prompt services, although as some reviewers in the west would described this place as 'Flies Eateries'. Yes, there are flies around.

5. Reasonable prices.

👎🏼 6) The fish balls, kind of averagely taste.

7. Similarly, the bean sprout, tasted good, but not great. The texture some how, just not as springy as the round, short and fat bean sprout...

This is an old established coffee shop operating in Section 17 of Petaling Jaya.

The usual coffee shop drinks are served here. The local coffee is nice too.

Prices are reasonable. Cash and e-wallet payments are accepted here.

Cleanliness is acceptable.

Service is fast and efficient.
