Eating out for under RM30: Onn Kee Restaurant Ipoh

When it comes to the signature classic dish of Ipoh, keeping it simple and consistent is key. 

There is a worry whenever I go home that the familiar bowl of Ipoh hor fun (kuey teow) chicken with taugeh (beanspouts) would be ruined by hype and consumerism. That, thankfully, has not happened and the yum factor of the city’s signature dish is safe and continues to delight and feed the melancholy that comes with my eating it.
