went to Kinta City , wanted to go buy a tee to change my soaked tee.. wanted to go to Jusco but  they were closed due to Hari Raya..  ended up going to Baleno to get a tee.. walked around the place, right as i walked into the car park which is on the 4th floor there was a nice view of the hills surrounding Ipoh..

decided to have lunch at Ipoh’s Original White Coffee which is a small lil coffee shop.. the White Coffee was yummy ! just what i needed to cool down on such a sunny afternoon.. ate fried kueh teow and shared roti bakar with the family.. the fried kueh teow is BAD.. taste so awful..
