Perak Food -Creamy Peanut Dessert & Mua Chi @ Hong Kee, Pasir Pinji, Ipoh

No... I don't like peanuts! I don't know why........About two years back, I had my first bowl of peanut puree/ creamy peanut dessert at Hong Kee Mah Chee, and this time, I had my second bowl of peanut puree at the same place. It's sort of difficult to locate this place but we managed to find it after making few wrong turns.

Hong Kee Mah Chee @ Pasir Pinji, Ipoh

Hong Kee has been operating for more than 20 years and it's a popular stall which is famous with their creamy peanut dessert and mua chi (glutinous rice coated we ground peanuts). Despite their no so easy find location, this stall is a favourite stall of tourists and locals. It is also a stall which is featured in our local newspaper and TV program as well.

Preparing Mah Chee

Creamy Peanut Puree and Mua chi @ RM 1.50 each

The peanut dessert (fa shang wu in cantonese) is extremely creamy, soft and smooth. Not too sweet and although it's creamy but it's not too thick and heavy. Took away for my best pal too. She likes this dessert alot!! As to mua chi( glutinous rice coat with ground peanuts and sugar), the glutinous rice is fresh and springy coated with cruncy ground peanuts. But, the portion served is too small.

Hong Kee Mah Chee is a highly recomended place for peanut and mua chi lovers!!
