First Square @ Falim

Angelo Constantino

Although it is situated relatively away from the town centre, the eating place was crowded whenever we arrived for supper at 6.30pm. Thankfully we could actually get yourself a table for 10 on top of the floor (no lift). Service was exceptable however the almost all therepeat customers are available mainly for the meals. We ordered 6 bowls of which 5 had been of very good quality and we had been extremely content with the meal. My favourite dish needs to be the claypot pork slices inside dark sauce with ginger and scallions, and the deep-fried fresh drinking water river prawns. We attempted the steamed marinated poultry offered with ginger sauce that was a residence specialty and weren't disappointed. Both vegetable meals were delightful - we'd kailan stir-fried with yam and the Romaine lettuce sauteed with fermented bean curd. The cafe captain suggested a bean curd dish that was okay but very much to my liking - but I assume this is only a personal view because the other people in the team liked it. This is actually the perfect spot to sample the very best of Hakka food that Ipoh provides. The restaurant is completely air-conditioned and visitors can dine in ease and comfort. I would recommend East Ocean for anybody who would like to have a flavor of fine Hakka eating.
