Energ!z!ng: Herbal Duck Drumstick Soup Noodles, Bidor

I fondly remember this place since I was a kid. Almost every year my parents would drop by whenever we are driving to Penang on our annual visit ‘balik kampung’. Been meaning to blog about this since then, but there are always some form of inconvenience; I'm either lazy, and oh ya, there was no blogging in 1985 =D.

So this time around I had to travel to Penang (again) for work. On the way home I was feeling sleepy, in fact I was feeling sleepy since passing Taiping. Then decided to drop by Bidor to rest a bit. And eat some noodles.

Name of place is Restoran Pun Chun, located on one of the busiest streets of Bidor. It is a corner shop, taking up two shop-lot space. It is not pretentious, still retaining the authentic feel of kopi-tiam from ages back. The restaurant serves a variety of dishes (which I could not explore yet) and tasty biscuits and bakeries. Note: This place serves non-halal food. Yum

The dish of concern? Here it is! Hot, tasty, ENERGIZING! For only RM6.60 per bowl, you get fragrant herbal soup with one whole drumstick. And my feeling of fatigue are completely gone after the tasty treat!

It’s only 1km away from the toll entry. Opens daily, 5am till 10pm. Ah, there are lots of petai being sold along the street too. The Chinese community speaks Cantonese in this town.

Here’s an artist’s sketch of its location.
