Deluscious Food Delight: not a mistake

Yup, it is not a spelling mistake. I just transcribe, not knowing whether the spelling is intentional. Deluscious Food Delight (DFD) has been near Taman Botani for quite some time. As far as my memory serve me correctly, it is one of the earliest shop to set foot in Taman Siber/ Botani when the place was still relatively empty. There was a time I frequently visited Botani, but fate has it that I did not settle down there. Along the main road, near to the entrance of Botani, is this small family run dessert shop. Blink and you will miss, so just drive slow along the shops with numerous restaurants.

This is a simple shop, so do not expect expert deco, personalized service, but dining here is definitely warm with interesting staff. Do not expect high sophisticated choices in the menu, but the highlights would be the Chinese dessert (tong sui) which differ every day. Just look at the wooden tags on the wall to see which dessert is available on the day. The rest of menu is dedicated to dessert such as pan cake. There is a vast range of cold dessert as well, such as shaved ice. Main dishes such as noodle and rice dishes would make sure patrons here return with the tummy full.

Although one may argue that the food here may not be the best among many choices here in Ipoh, but I would say that dining here give me a homely feel with the good food. The dry noodle with braised pork is one of the best combination among pork and mee. The chicken chop and black pepper pork do not shine but do not disappoint either. The pan mee, is bit plain but among the many favourful dishes, plain is good. The dessert choice is aplenty, from tong sui to the cold ice dessert. I have still yet to try their peanut soup, which I will reserve for my next visit.

It is not easy to find a place with both good light and heavy food together with hot and cold dessert. I truly enjoy dining here; it is a nice break from all the fancy restaurants, and I am sure it will disappoint others as well.
