This will be my guide in my 1st trip to Taiping. So many good looking food in there. The Lai Fun Noodles Soup looks exquisite! And the Prawn Mee and Char Kuay Kak look good and honest. All priced as what hawker food should be these days. Must try.

Hello food hunter . Firstly I want to congratulate you on a first class video !! The first thing that impressed me was in , your opening section of your video was a, big massive tree .. so beautiful man . Also as I watched the video I noticed around this market has big trees . Loved it . As for the food oh man where do I start .. I love the vada and the tosai . But what I loved most was the vegetarian food stall . Personally I could eat that food all day and everyday . Prawn mee looked delicious as well . Once again I thank you .

Doesnt look very hygienic... all the stalls.... Eat at your own risk ....

[@Tia9752]

Stalls at roadside lookin for hygiene yea? 😅

[@newjourney9220]

Please don't go stay at home

[@CCC9999CCC]

I've never been to Taiping in my life and won't after watching this video. The stalls look unappealing, especially the prawn noodle stall. Sure lausai after eating. The Asam + Curry Laksa looks gross. Sorry, I will just drive straight to Penang.

[@devc5139]

That prawn mee is one of the best I've ever eaten. The soup is so damn good, radish cake is good too. The laifun , i can eat everyday everytime i visit. It is that amazing. The rest are so so. There are alot more good ones not filmed

[@Tia9752]

Penang has hygiene issue on nasi kandar , the famous Assam laksa located next door of rubbish bins near kek lor si temple + most of the famous food in the pasar 777 road . Erm, I think u r not the food hunter, better eat at home. 😅 Eat safe without worry.
