Kampar Curry Chicken Bread @ Kam Ling Restaurant Anyway, we decided to embark on a short, day trip to Teluk Intan in the southern region of the state of Perak. I wrote about Teluk Intan only once in my blog, if I recall correctly.

That was when we visited Keng Heng Coffee Shop in town for breakfast, then lunch at Lana Tea House. But of course, I neglected the urge to write about the repeated visits to the town famous for the iconic leaning tower (yup, don't go thinking ONLY Italy has one) right smack in town centre, the incomparable Teluk Intan Chee Cheong Fun, and fresh seafood supplied by its neighbouring town of Hutan Melintang. (Read about our lunch at Men Lok Seafood @ Hutan Melintang)

KAM LING RESTAURANT No 105 & 107, Jalan Idris, 31900 Kampar, Perak, Malaysia. Telephone: 605-466 1174, or 6016-533 2226, 6016-551 1174. The Curry Chicken Bun One of Kampar's most recognized food icon is The Curry Chicken Bun (Roti Kari Ayam/面包鸡). It's a big loaf of bread with curry chicken inside it.

There are two restaurants in this small town that sell The Curry Chicken Bun. YAU KEE is the restaurant who started to sell this dish, and even expand it to other town. But Kam Ling Restaurant had gained more positive words-of-the mouth, and recommendation from various media. Comparing the experience at Yau Kee and Kam Ling, Kam Ling restaurant's curry where not as thick as Yau Kee's curry.

Kam Ling Restaurant @ Kampar – With her sleeves all rolled up, clearly she was in her elements …. cutting up the gigantic Curry Chicken Bread for us, right before our very eyes.

(RM22/USD6.90) To reach the town of Teluk Intan from Ipoh, you can use a few different routes. One being our favourite Ipoh-Kampar-Kampung Gajah-Teluk Intan way, which is marginally shorter, compared to Ipoh-Tapah-Tapah Road-Teluk Intan, and miles faster than the Bidor-Teluk Intan route. The journey takes about one and a half hour from Ipoh to Teluk Intan, slightly longer if the roads are plied with lorries and other vehicles, which is common on weekdays.
