Hor Hee

Hor Hee noodle seems to be an Ipoh ‘thing’. Old Town White Coffee has added it to their menu. Basically it is  noodle in a fish soup base, with small springy fish balls, thinly-sliced fish cake, crunchy tong choy (a preserved vegetable), bean sprouts or shredded lettuce, and savoury sui kao (fish wonton), served with sliced bird’s eye chilli drenched in light soya sauce. Tong choywith its unique texture and piquancy, adds to the flavour of the soup. Usually made withkuey teow noodles, other noodles are also available; glass noodle (tong fun or tunghoon) is also another favourite choice. The most distinguishing thing in Hor Hee is the sui kao. Triangular in shape, one has to fish around for it as only one piece is given in a normal serving. (One is very lucky if there are two!) Some food stalls even charge extra for it. Hor Hee makes a deliciously light soup noodle meal.
