Short History of Mee Poh Ikan Bakar

The Mee Poh Ikan Bakar has existed for 16 years till date and it is owned by a Chinese uncle from Ipoh. This stall is operated by the whole family where you can see their teamwork in the works done. One will be taking order, one will be grilling the fish, one will be preparing for the sauce and another one serving. When the owner was interviewed, we got to know that the fishes sold are originated from Pulau Pangkor, undoubtedly they are fresh. Besides that, the types of fishes sold are Ikan Siakap, Bawal, Tilapia, Pari, Ikan Ayam and many more. You can even get sotong bakar over here served with okra and the price charged for each particular dish is based on the current market price.

Feedback by the existing customers

We interviewed two existing customers over there and also one our team members to get feedback on this particular dish, ‘Ikan Bakar’. The two customers feedback were to be taken for good as the first customer, an Indian customer said that his family and him have been their loyal customers since the past 10 years and that the taste has not changed till now. Another Chinese customer we interviewed told that his family from overseas will always insist him to take them to the stall whenever they are back because of the evergreen taste of the gravy which is nowhere to get. When we asked one of our group members, Li Ping, she said that the taste was extraordinary and that she has never tasted something like this anywhere else.
