The Roast House's Ipoh Hor Fun wasn't up to the mark according to my standards although it's served with lots of fresh shrimps, chicken slices, and spring onions. The 2 most important criteria to meet in making a good hor fun is the soup base & the type of noodles used. Firstly, the soup lacks in the prawn & chicken taste resulting it to become quite tasteless. On top of that, the noodles should be especially smooth, fine and slippery hor fun, but they may have use another type of kuey teow comm

On top of that, the noodles should be especially smooth, fine and slippery hor fun, but they may have use another type of kuey teow commonly used for soup or fried version (char kway teow) that is broader, thicker and not as smooth as the original hor fun.
Note the unusually thick and broad looking kuey teow in this bowl of soup.
Last but not least, if you're not choosy or 'cerewet' foodie like me (I always have a benchmark of all the food in my list) ... feel free to give this humble noodles a try!
