David's Diner





This time me and my hubby decided to try one of the places recommended in http://www.j2kfm.com/ blog as the reviews of this place is really tempting. we can feel the welcoming and warm auras the moment we entered this place. We say lots of people enjoying their meals having a good chat and laugh and the busy staffs catering the customers need to the max and the manager who always checking and making sure everyone is happy and having a good time.


The ambience of the place is simple yet cosy and relaxingThe staff are really prompt and friendly. The moment we sat and settling down one of the staffs came and explain us the set menus they have and what are the best in the house. I love the decoration, staff and definitely the FOOD!!!!.



I asked for the dinner set menu. The menu consisted of soup (Mushroom), drink ( I asked for Orange juice) and the main course which is a really top notch. I had crispy fried fish and the meal came with coleslaw, roasted potatoes (the best one I have ever tried) and of course the fish. I was enjoying the meal so much that I just let the clinking cutlery did the talking. The fish was crispy and not oily despite the deep fried one. It was light and crunchy from the outside and soft and juicy from the inside. Every single bite made me wanted to have more and more. Not to forget the roasted potatoes to compliment the meal. The portion was just nice and the taste was amazing. It was indeed a miraculous dinner I have ever had. Simple yet delicious.

While my husband had mushroom burger for his dinner and raspberry lemon tea to go along with it. The burger pattie was a homemade one as well as the burger bun. The meal came with french fries and baked potato with cour cream and chives. The beef pattie looked juicy, soft and tender glistening with mushroom as well as cheese. My husband enjoyed his meal with less complain and lots of compliments. The burger might look small but don't get fool by the size. It was actually quite filling and satisfying. My husband gave two thumbs up for the burger, both of quality and quantity.

We really had a good night at David's Diner. Kudos to the staff as well as the manager. I hope they will keep up the good work to make this place a well known place in Ipoh.

Nasi Kandar Hameediyah


One of my trainees recommended us to try this Nasi Kandar while we were still in Penang. It is situated somewhere in Jalan Chowrasta along the small street. We managed to spot the place with no fail as it is just next to the main street. There were a lot of people queueing up to get their meals for the day.The Nasi Kandar here is a bit different than the infamous Nasi Kandar Line Clear. There were a variety of meat to choose and not that much seafood compared to the other one.

We at first decided not to choose that much for the dishes as we did not want to be greedy and stuffed ourselves up too much. However we changed our intention when we saw the selection of food. There were grilled lamb, turkey, beef and mutton curry. We were really spoilt with the choices that we ended up took the turkey curry, grilled lamb and some veggie.

The Nasik Kandar here serves the rice and dishes in separate plates which is good as it gave me and my hubby chance to share our meals together. We were not really sure what would the turkey curry taste as we have never tried it before.The first bite of the succulent,soft and tender turkey meat surprised us. The turkey meat was actually taste really good and juicy. I really enjoyed the meat and the curry that I did not even try any vegetable.

Meanwhile my hubby loves the grilled lamb a lot that he ate most of the meat and left the rice unattended. The grilled lamb was really tender and juicy with less fat in it. It was grilled to perfection and almost burn which gave a very distinctive flavour mixed with the herb and the meat. It was a simple grill but the combination of the meat, herbs as well as the way of grilling it had made the dish the most astounding one for the day.

We enjoyed the nasik kandar at this restaurant very much and will definitely come back whenever we have the chance. The people here are very friendly, quick and warm and the food is the top notch Nasik Kandar I have ever had. Voila to Nasik Kandar Hameediyah!

This is where the restaurant located:
