    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.

    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 .

    Unfortunately, plastics bowl were used generally in most of the noodles stalls that can release cancer causing agent when hot soap were filled.

    The food is indeed vegetarian but not vegan. Most of our local food stalls do not provide vegan options. Kindly update your statement accordingly, thank you

    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.
