Alright! Ipoh's new places are really coming up and about!

This was really an eye to lookout once they started renovating cause it seemed like a huge project. We honestly thought it was gonna be another bubble tea joint and thank God it wasn't hah.

But it's a Bak Kut Teh place! How fancy is that?

I really like the interior of it. A design mix of Modern and Traditional together.

Thought it might be weird but it blends very well together surprisingly.

Look at all the delicious kuih kuih. Though it is a bit pricier la.

Modern looking design.

I really like this cozy staircase to the top.

That feel.

I really like this space. At night it's so glowing and so instaworthy.

草根六两 MENU

Teapot (Big) with 4 cups - RM 9.90

Okay la the teapot quite big sia, we drink few cups till it was so thick at the bottom at the jar.

White Rice - RM 1.90 each

Bak Kut Teh Soup (Small) - RM 21.90

Soup was quite nice actually. It's not a strong herbal taste, butI would say it taste very balanced. The portion of meat given was okay as well.

Oyster Sauce Kailan - RM 9.90

Well, oyster flavour very generous. Not overcooked as well.

Taste great!

Bak Kut Teh Dry (Small) - RM 21.90

Not that spicy so it's great for those who can't take spicy food. Quite delicious honestly. I like this more than the soup one.

Overall, well the price you pay is what you get, good food and lovely ambiance all around.

It is worth it? I guess its okay for once. But to me it is quite overprice but then the surrounding ambiance is why that it's so expensive. Great to go for a new spot though!

草根六两

Address: No 87, Jalan Tasek, Taman Teh Teng Seng, 31400 Ipoh, Perak.

So they have been talking about this place lately. Apparently because of the glasshouse alike, so its a new hype in Ipoh.

I have got to say, I was very impress by the interior. Glass panels everywhere, so much of greens and very well decorated. Got to say, that landscaping technique was put to good use.

Delicious cakes.

I cannot not say this but what is with the hand written menu?

IF you got like calligrapher to do it I wouldn't mind but come on man.

Chocolate Oreo Iced Blended Smoothie - RM 14.90

Not a lot of oreo taste but chocolate was quite good.

Quite nice just wished the oreo was a bit more.

Sunset Punch (Mango and Strawberry) - RM 11.90

This however, is delicious! It has that very nostalgic taste of i don't know what.

But it's really refreshing!

New York Cheese - RM 15.00

This cheese cake is delightful. I love how soft is the cheese, I love the bottom crust. Caramel is nice too.

Turkey Ham and Chicken Carbonara - RM 22.90

Hmm, I felt the chicken and ham was cut too thick for a person to eat honestly. They could've cut it into smaller pieces. Sauce was not creamy enough, it was basically becoming paste. Taste wise, I'll give it 3 out of 10.

Minced Lamb Aglio Olio - RM 25.90

The lamb was delicious if you like lamb, if you don't like the particular smell that lamb gives then don't eat it. For lamb lovers, this is quite delicious. A little bit oily but it is aglio olio.

Chicken Chop with Gochujang Sauce - RM 18.90

(Set lunch, completed with Mushroom soup, bread and ice cream as seen below)

This was the weirdest sauce I ever tasted on a chicken chop.
I ordered it because well everything else on the menu was pretty expensive and thought to give this a go but nope. Just nope. It's like some spicy i don't know what korean flavour that they mention.

Mushroom soup was good though and the bread too.

Ice cream was just alright. Can't even tell what flavour I had.

My experience on this place was not very good.

We waited for 1 hour to just order our food.

Another hour for our food to arrive.

And they actually forgotten another one of our orders so we just cancel it.

We found a stapler bullet in the carbonara as well, they changed it immediately but didn't apologise at all. I feel that they are too new, don't know how to handle large crowds, don't know what's common restaurant courtesy. What to say and stuff. A lot more to improve cause this place does have a potential to get bigger.

It's been a while since I went so I hope it's better now.

*Visited again on 20/12/2019*
Came again and boy was I disappointed again too.
I actually timed them this time when I sat down.
I walked in, and clearly they saw me, I sat at one of the tables.
It took them 5 minutes 35 seconds to get me a menu.
It wasn't full house and there weren't like a lot of people calling for them servers.

Tried the lunch set, loved the appetizer, hate the main course.
Don't know whose idea was it to put some korean sauce on a western chicken chop.
Obviously, they were better trained now in terms of service but the food though.
Like if a normal price food can't be cooked well, deliciously, why would I pay for the other expensive food on the menu then?
