The Whale Tea @ Soho, Ipoh


Don't get confuse, this is not The Black Whale. Apparently is another whale. Hahaha.
So let us see shall we.



Also has the same whale fin as The Black Whale.

I honestly wonder what are the differences between the two whale bubble tea shops. Cause they are both quite alike.

     



 The Whale Tea MENU

Flame Glazed Whale - RM 12.90
This is the one is the cheese on top.
Tasted just okay okay only bah. Not very interesting.
Couldn't really taste the cheese as well.

Black Sugar Glazed Tea - RM 10.90
This is with milk and the black sugar boba.
Hmmm, not very much to like liking though this one. But the bobas were nice nice to chew.

Baixiang LiuLi Tea - RM 14.90
It's basically fruit tea.
Passion fruit and some others such as watermelon and all.
Very much refreshing.

Lightning Sea Salt Ice Cream - RM 10.90
This tasted a bit weird though. Like medicine hahaha.
So I wouldn't recommend this.

Overall, this just another normal bubble tea shop. 

Nothing really interesting.
Good to give just one try.

Lazy Chef @ Soho, Ipoh

So I saw this place behind Texas Chicken in Soho, and I couldn't wait to try it!

Inside, its a very nordic design, very calm.


     




     
Lazy Chef Menu

     
     
     

 Cheesy Chicken Chop - RM 25.00
This was off the menu.
Chicken was a little bit tough. Sauce has a lot of flavours in it.
Not too bad but my friend didn't really like it.

 Just a Carbonara - RM 22 + Add on Smoked Duck Breast - RM 7
Spaghetti was great but the duck breast was not cut averagely and it was slightly overcooked, also, too much of salt.
Other than that, it is creamy and delicious.

An Overview.

Overall,
its hard to say, maybe might try their breakfast menu to judge.
Lunch menu was not up to par I would say, to the price we paid for.

Lanna Thai @ Soho, Ipoh

Wooooh. Thai Food!
It's been a long time since having any thai food. 

This place is big and spacious and bright.
Super love the environment. 



 Lanna Thai Menu



Thai Green Tea (Cold) - RM 10.50
Thai Tea (Cold) - RM 10.50
Both are strong flavoured of the milk tea, but quite nice.
During hot weather, one big slurp of this is like Aaaahhhhhhhhh.

 Stir Fried Kailan with Salted Fish (Regular) - RM 16.00
The chili does not give away the spiciness in the dish, but elevates it.
Salted fish wasn't too much or less. Just right.

Green Curry Chicken (Regular) - RM 25.00 
Thai food is always famous for their green curry, wah this is delicious!
Coconut milk wasn't too much that they have poured in, so the curry tasted sweet and spicy.

Fried Tofu with Garlic Sauce (Regular) - RM 16.00 
Thick sauce, but really fragrant because of the garlic. 
I love the outside texture of the tofu.

An Overview.

Overall, its really nice, but the price at the end was a bit steep.
It's worth a try really.

Morel @ Ipoh Soho

Heading to a restaurant where my ex colleague recommended as she is also a foodie, who floods her facebook with drooling food pictures.

Inside is pretty wide and chic design. Comfortable for many pax too.



     
I really enjoy how they cozy up the corners.

     
Morel MENU.
So on their menu, heaven I would say.
I really wanted to order EVERYTHING but my stomach can only handle so much.
Dilemma dilemma.

     

     

Their set menu is really worth it.
They do have a set lunch menu as well, so you can take a look when you are there for lunch time. But its a bit insane to find parking during lunch hours in Soho la to be honest.

     
Peach - RM 5.90 (Individual), Free (Set)
Some peach teas are quite bland, but this you can taste the essence of the peach with a hint of tea leaves in it.


Honey Lemon - RM 9.90 (Individual), Free (Set)
Don't think you can ever go wrong with Honey Lemon, refreshing as always.


Mango Passion Fruit Smoothie - RM 10.90
Mango and Passion Fruit Puree enriched with Yogurt.
Had a brain freeze once I had a big sip through the huge straw. But it is really really good.
Very yummy, mango taste with passion fruit that blends well together.

Soup of the Day - Tomato Soup (Set)
The soup itself does help in getting your appetite ready for main course. 
Not too sour or strong in coriander smell.

 Cacciucco - RM 49.90
Tuscan Seafood stewed with Baby Lobster, Mussel, Prawn, Fish, Clam, Squid, Scallop, Crab Claw and Red Wine, Served with Bread.
This is so worth it for two people to share. It was so much that my friend ordered all by herself and asked the other two of us to finish the rest. Worth every penny. 
If you notice the Chili, it does bring a bit of kick and heat to it but wasn't super spicy that you couldn't bear.

 Mushroom Risotto (with Morel Mushroom) - RM 32.90 (Individual), RM 37.90 (Set)
Italian Rice cooked with Cream and Parmesan Cheese with Mushrooms.
Man, I regretted not ordering this. My friend ordered it and I thought of ordering something else.
Shrooms and Risotto, my favourite combination. It seem like a small portion but its definitely filling.
Creamy with parmesan cheese on it. 

 Aglio Olio - RM 19.90
Spaghetti Pasta Sauteed with Smoked Duck Breast, Aglio Olio style with Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Smoked Egg Yolk Bottarga.
I would say, this one isn't too bad at all.
The smoked duck is perfecto. Very very tender.
Spaghetti wasn't drench in olive oil like some other restaurants.

 Warm Chocolate Lava Cake - RM 18.90
Rich Chocolate Cake with Molten center, served with Gelato Vanilla Ice Cream.
Man, this was the bomb.
Rich in chocolate, although the chocolate wasn't melted enough but the taste is good!

Single Scoop Ice Cream - Free (Set) 
Choice of Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry.
With the sets, you get a free scoop of ice cream. I felt like a kid again.
Refreshing dessert at the end of the meal.

An Overview.

It is much more on the pricier side but what they deliver is not what any other restaurant would.
Exquisite taste and fresh seafood, the way it was cooked and delivered was definitely worth the price.
Won't be able to go often but once in a while with extra cash in my pocket, why not?
A definite must to go place.
