A Short Visit to Taiping & A Beautiful Dinner at Kedai Makan Tepu Sungai 十八丁海鲜 🌿🌅🦐

Last weekend, I took a short and spontaneous trip to Taiping, a town well-known for its tranquil charm and colonial-era beauty. The weather was calm, the streets were quiet, and the iconic Taiping Lake Gardens lived up to their reputation — peaceful and lush with greenery, reflecting the beauty of nature in every corner. 🌳☁️ As evening approached, we made our way to Kedai Makan Tepu Sungai 十八丁海鲜, a hidden gem located near Kuala Sepetang. The journey there felt like an adventure, with scenic views of the riverside and mangrove trees lining the way. Dinner was the highlight of the day. Fresh seafood, cooked in simple yet flavorful styles — we had butter prawns, steamed fish with soy sauce, and their famous kam heong lala. The food was incredibly fresh, and the open-air setting made everything taste even better. You could literally feel the sea breeze as you ate! 🌊🍤🐟 If you’re ever passing through Taiping, don’t miss the chance to dine at this humble yet unforgettable seafood spot. It’s the kind of place that makes a short trip feel wonderfully complete. #taipingtrip #kualasepetang #seafoodlover #malaysiahiddengems #十八丁海鲜 #localeats #traveltales
