Not too sure what’s really worth the try when you’re around Ipoh? Besides the famous ‘Taufu Fah’ that many will queue for, do you know there is this hidden treasure that’s another must try?
Operating for decades, the best seller here would be the Mah Chee (or better known as Mua Chee) and Thick Peanut Paste dessert!
Passing on to the fourth generation, the taste and the texture still remained the same like before. All homemade recipes that had been brought down from the family, they use the traditional stone grinder to make the peanut paste thick and smooth.

One bowl will never be enough. Boiled for hours and freshly made daily, theirs are really smooth yet aromatic.

Not to be missed – the mah chee. Made from glutinous rice flour, the process of making the best mah chee was so tedious. Kneaded until even and nice, then it is made into a ball form and mixed with grounded peanuts, sesame, and sugar. You can eat it just as it is with the peanuts and sugar or mix with the peanut paste dessert. You’ll lick the plate clean for sure.
