Delicious meal at this stall in Metrotown! I've tried their food multiple times and it has always been delicious. The staff is friendly and the food is always hot and fresh. I love the kway teow with the egg sauce! Only downside is that Crystal Mall is always chaotic, and it's difficult to find seating. It also takes a while for them to make the food, so be prepared to wait 30 mins. read more

A charming stall at the Crystal Mall food court, I was impressed by how fast the food came out. I had the char kuey teow - very hot, good spicy kick, lots of shrimp and clam meat and Chinese sausage. There's free water which is a nice touch. read more

IPOH Malaysian Cuisine Crystal Mall Food Court - 2nd Floor 4500 Kingsway, Burnaby Great Malaysian food available in the food court, it's my go to for Malaysian food, service is friendly... avoid weekends as the food court is crazy busy.

Yumz! - It is rice noodle in a yummy egg sauce with fish cake, shrimp, sliced pork & loads of veggies served with a pickled green chili ( ask for soya sauce into your pickled green chillies) I never had a bad dish from there, menu is pretty extensive from Singapore Laksa, to noodles & rice dishes.

Nestled in Crystal mall's food court on the second level, you'll find a Malaysian food gem. I ordered the penang fried kueh teow and the home town fried chicken wings, and I was happy with what I ordered! The noodles had a smoky wok flavour, not too salty, and was cooked well. I also liked how the noodles were on the drier side but packed with flavour. Highlights included the clam and shrimps. The fried chicken wings were also tasty. They were made to order and had a beautiful crust on it. The seasoning wasn't too salty and the meat was juicy and tender. I will definitely return to try their curries and Hainan chicken. read more

Loved their roti - for food court the food was actually tasteful however, price was steep!

Got the full Hainanese chicken for takeout here for around $35. Would definitely recommend it. It's really flavorful and juicy but not overly salty and the chicken is deboned and not too fatty. Also comes with three delicious sauces (sweet & sour, soy, ginger) Note: This restaurant is a food court stall located in The Crystal Mall (near the back). read more

Amazing find in burnaby crystal mall! I wanted to try something different so i thought why not Malaysian Cuisine. For food court standards, there are above average in quality and quantity. Went with the Laksa Noodle soup and chicken chop Combo. The Laksa flavours are there. Soup was smooth and silky. As a personal preference, they could give it a more intense flavour...but as it is, its still good. Nice, invigorating soup on a rainy day. Definitely cleared the sinuses and warmed the soul. The tofu puffs were also nicely cooked. They were able to absorb the laksa curry flavours but still maintained a nice crunch to the skin. The chicken chop was awesome. Nicely deep fried with an extra crispy skin and juicy and moist meat. Boneless and nicely arranged. Can't ask for anymore. Simply delicious. The legendary chinese 5 spices very aromatic. Each and every bite size piece was coated and cooked to perfection. They also give you a buzzer while you wait. I waited probably 5 mins, then order came. What a meal. So simple yet, sophisticated in flavours Also very affordable and open till 7pm nightly...the staff very attentive and accommodating. Service is amazing. Cheers! Happy eating! read more

Itried their "Roti Prata with Curry Chicken" special meal ($13.75). What they served was some kind of roti, but it certainly wasn't Malaysian style roti. Sometimes it's called roti canai, or in Singaporean cuisine it's called roti paratha. In fact, the roti looked suspiciously like Indian style roti you can get raw in the frozen food section of Superstore. You can sit pretty much anywhere in Crystal Mall while waiting for your order because they give you a beeper that sounds an alarm when your order is ready. read more

Good food here, and no line here on a busy Christmas Even lunch in 2022. It was a 10 minute wait for one dish. They have buzzers, and our food came out faster than estimated. * Roti Prata w/ Curry Chicken ($12.95) - 4 stars I enjoyed this! The roti was buttery and flaky. Curry was good, low/medium spicy. Chicken had some bones/fat in it, FYI, I didn't mind but some of my friends wished for just regular chicken meat. read more

The chicken is flavorful and soft. It is also boneless and comes with a decent portion. The chicken is served cold. The rice for the chicken rice is a little bland and would taste better with the soy sauce on it. The soup for the chicken rice is a little sour. The chicken rice also comes with pickles instead of cucumbers which is weird. Overall, the chicken rice is still delicious. As for the bak ku teh, it comes with a bowl of rice and a bowl of herbal broth with pork. Since I did not have that, I would not comment on it. The store is located in Crystal Mall food court with lots of other stalls as well. Generally, the food court seems clean. The store also accepts credit cards among various other payment methods. read more

Was looking for cheaper Malay/Singaporean cuisine since a Nasi Lemak for some reason costs over $16 for very simple ingredients. I'm not sure if this Crystal Mall food court Ipoh is related to the restaurant called Ipoh in Marpole. I did expect quality to be a little worse since it is cheaper and is in a food court. We ordered Nasi Lemak and Fried Kuay Teow. Nasi Lemak - rice definitely isn't very coconut-y. The sambal was tasty but lacking spiciness. The chicken wing was fried really nice and light - very juicy. The best Nasi Lemak I've had is from Shiok. Fried Kuay Teow - this is the first time I've had Malaysian kuay teow since I don't really like the singporean version. I really like this style and it resembles Hong Kong style fried flat rice noodles. It had prawns, clams (although very flavorless clams), eggs, chinese sausage, chives and bean sprouts. It was ok but missing the wok hei (high stiry fry heat). It satisfies my cravings but something is missing from each dish. For the pricing, that is what you get. read more

Not sure if I got the wrong dish from IPOH, but I was quite disappointed with the main I ordered. I got the curry beef brisket with rice as well as an order of Malay style chicken wings. The curry brisket was quite cheap, priced at $12.25. Unfortunately the quality also reflected it. First off, every piece of beef was cold in the centre, which made me suspect they have a pot of beef in the fridge and just toss a few chunks in the curry when an order comes in. Sadly they didn't warm it up enough. Secondly, the curry sauce was just lukewarm and quite bland. I don't taste any of the spices, which is quite disappointing since they boosted to be authentic Malaysian food. On top of the curry beef, there were also carrots and potato chunks. The chicken wings in comparison was much better. It was deep fried properly with a crispy skin. The chicken wings were also seasoned perfectly, it was juicy with every bite. Definitely will order it again. Unlike some of the food court stalls, Ipoh gives you a buzzer to alert you when your food is ready, so you don't have to stand and wait for your order. It took around 15 minutes for us to get our order. read more

I've been here for twice already and the food was impressive in my opinion. Their Chicken and Laksa Combo ($9.50) was big and filling. Laksa didn't have much toppings, however noodles and soup were tasty. Chicken was rather lukewarm; however the portion and taste were great. I think the whole combo would be TOO big for one person. I didn't have to go all the way to Hawkers Delight for Laksa ,and Ipoh is definetely closer distance from my home. I also tried Malaysian wings($5.99) earlier for dinner. Chicken wings were fresh and crispy. My only gripe was staff gave me few napkins after ordering wings. I mean you get all messy and greasy after eating and why giving so less? Anyways I totally recommend Ipoh for some Laksa and the rest of the food. Char Kway Teow looked quite yummy and I want to try it next time. read more

Put some respect on Ipoh's name. It's a holy establishment in the most dilapidated mall... to all those who gave this place 3 stars or less FOH. You come here for one reason and one reason only, to wait 15+ min for the fried kway teow with the creamy-egg gravy. If you ever enjoyed Chinese peaches and cream corn soup then you will enjoy this overly starchy sauced fried noodle. The added pickled jalapeños just takes it over the edge. All the weird texture matched with the wok flame flavour.... makes sense just like when Jay Z did that weird mashup with Linkin Park. Side note, there's always this older Asian couple with 3+ heavy bags of grocery and like 5 take out boxes occupying the handicap table. Say hi to them when you see them. They a hoot. read more

This update is really just to add my collection of pictures from Ipoh Bean Sprout Chicken in Crystal Mall. Now I haven't been to Crystal Mall since pre-covid so I'm not 100% which stalls are still opened.. but I'm hoping this one still is, as it is one of my favourites. As you can see from my pictures, I've had their Chicken Laksa numerous times (each picture is a separate visit). I love noodle lifting their laksa as they give a generous amount of noodles, and a mix of the yellow noodle and vermicelli noodle. I know a lot of different laksa spots that don't have that combination, and only one kind of noodle. I absolutely love the broth. And as mentioned in my previous review, it's the perfect amount of flavour and spiciness. And there is a good portion of quality chicken. May be awhile before I go back to Crystal Mall, but certainly give them a try if you're there! read more

Got the creamy egg hor fun after trying it at their sister restaurant in marpole and must say that although the portion of noodles was quite small, it was expertly stir fried and the creamy egg sauce went perfect. It was a little bit salty and oily but hey, it cost $10 and was from a food court! There were some pieces of shrimp, pork and greens in the sauce and made for a tasty combination. Overall, quite a delicious dish from a "chicken" place! read more

If you are looking for good Singaporean/Malaysian food, this is definitely a place to try! The taste is pretty authentic, portions are generous filled with ingredients (especially compared to a couple of other local Singaporean restaurants I've been to..) and price is affordable! The menu is filled with so many different options! My faves so far are: *Ipoh Hor Fun: flat rice noodles served in a delicious eggy soupy base. Just from the picture, it's easy to see that it's filled with so many ingredients like prawn, fish cake, veggies and pork. If you like a little bit of spice, it also comes with cut green chilli which goes really well with this dish. *Char Keoy Teow: definitely a signature Singapore dish done right! Yummy, and sprinkled with numerous prawns and Chinese sausages I've also tried the Penang Prawn Mee today, which I also enjoyed! It comes with a mix of yellow noodle and vermicelli which is a combo I really like. The soup was decent, but a little bit on the oily side. It doesn't quite hit my list of faves, but is something I would consider ordering again :) read more

I had food from this stall a few times now. The first time I tried the Penang prawn noodles and I was not impressed as it lacked the oomph in the taste of the soup. The laksa gravy which I nicked from my friend was also on the weak side. I decided to order other dishes which seemed very popular with diners and they were definitely much better and similar to those you find in Malaysia/Singapore. Thus the 4-star rating. The char kway teow had the wok hei flavor to it and was a close duplicate (soy sauce tasted a bit different but I could understand that since you could not really get the exact same brands here). Instead of cockles, they sub it with some shellfish or clam which gave the chewy texture. Unfortunately the clam/shellfish was very tasteless. The nasi lemak was pretty good, especially the crispy ikan bilis (anchovies) and fried chicken wing (very legit Malaysian/Singaporean home style) and the generous serving of sambal. Simply delicious in Vancouver's context. The hor fun (fried kway teow with creamy egg sauce) was the kind you get from the tze char place in Singapore. Wok hei and all. I saw many people ordered this and there is a reason for that. If you are a fan of the Singapore style hor fun at Kurumba in Port Moody, then you will like this better. At least I did. I will need to go back to try the Hainanese chicken rice and ipoh chicken rice and ipoh hor fun next. They also have Hakka Pan Mee which is exciting as I love the pan mee in KL, Malaysia. I hope it will be the same. Prices are fair as this is located in the food court. The chef and the lady taking order are from Ipoh. Go say hello to them if you are also from that part of the world. read more

Malaysian street food. Beautiful. Parking is available in the Crystal Mall lot. As with all the other places in the food court, this place is really just a counter with a bunch of signs taped to the wall. Staff took my order, and the food came maybe 10 minutes later. The shredded pork laksa I had (can't remember the name) was tasty. The shredded BBQ pork was a bit on the fatty side, requiring me to spit out chunks of fat. The soup was quite good. Noodles were half decent, though they tasted like they came from one of the Asian supermarket stalls nearby. The garnish was a bunch of leaves and half a baby lime. Wouldn't mind coming back here again for sure, to try their signature Ipoh bean sprout chicken read more

The Crystall Mall Food Court in Burnaby is full of food stands serving primarily Chinese cuisine. What I like about this food court is that you can find different regional Chinese fare here and the prices are very reasonable. Ipoh Bean Sprout Chicken is the Malaysian food stand at the food court. After a filling breakfast at a HK cafe, I was looking for a lighter meal and thought Malaysian Chinese fare would be a good option. Meal prices at this stand were good. It seemed like many items were under $8. I decided to give the Ipoh fried hor fun ($7.25) a try. Since this is a food court, you will need to find a open table which can be a challenge. It is best to bring someone with you when visiting the the food court here to stake a table while the other person orders and waits for the food. After my meal was ready, I grabbed it and found a table. Upon opening the box, plenty of steam poured out telling me that the noodles were fresh off the wok. Hor fun is a rice noodle dish that is essentially like Chinese chow funn. I haven't had Ipoh fried hor fun before, but it seemed like the difference from the Chinese version is the use of shrimp. The hor fun was good. I noticed the addition of pork in this dish. Not sure if this is traditional, but it is nice to have a second source of protein. The shrimp were not as fresh as in Malaysia, but fine given the low price point of the dish. As for the rice noodles, I thought they were my favorite thing in this dish. The noodles were fresh and the "wok hee" comes through. There are so many good places at Crystal Mall Food Court that it can be difficult to choose. But if you are looking for a filling meal that is not too heavy, I would recommend the hor fun at this stand. read more

It's easy to pass by this Malaysian/Singaporean place as it doesn't look like much. That would be a mistake though if you enjoy this type of cuisine. This is one of those places where you shouldn't judge the quality of the food by how a place looks. If you're like me, trying to decide between the myriads of different eateries in the Crystal Mall food fair can be a challenge. One time I decided to give Ipoh a try. That was all it took to make me a repeat customer. So far I've tried their laksa, prawn mee (noodles in soup), kueh teow (fried flat rice noodles) in creamy egg sauce, nasi lemak, fried chicken wings, and roti and have never been disappointed. Overall, the food is fresh, tasty and authentic. read more

Have to start off by 100% agreeing with Jon C that for those giving this establishment a 3 stars or less, they need their taste buds checked. This stall appears so unassuming. However, that is where it ends. Every time I miss the food back home, this is the go to place to satisfy my gastronomical needs. Ipoh Fried Hor Fun, Char Kway Teow, both of these dishes require skill to get right as timing is extremely critical and the chef nailed it. The Nasi Lemak and Mee Goreng is by far the real McCoy one can find in this city. Overall, this place is a gem and my wife are regulars and so happy to have them delivering the most authentic food from the region for a reasonable price with generous portions. read more

I went to this place today to try out my first Malaysian meal after reading comments on Yelp. I got chicken and noodles laska soup ($9.75). I got my food about 5 minutes after placing the order. It came with 2 parts, 1 noodles bowl and 1 deep fried chicken portion. The noodles bowl have: Noodles, bean sprouts, green onion, and 2 pieces of deep fried tofu, so not many toppings: The noodles was quite nice, but later on I was full and It was kinda rich so I had to leave some unfinished. The chicken is seasoned with salt then deep fried. It was very nice. Overall, I could not finish the meal (I was hungry when I ordered). The dish was good. Will I ever come back again? Hardly. Because the price compared to the meal was a bit too filling since I didn't finish it. (I am a student) read more

We just choose a random place in the food court called Ipoh Bean Sprout Chicken. Of course any smart person would have gone for chicken because it's in the name of their restaurant but I decided to go for the Laksa because I was craving it. Unfortunately, it just wasn't that good. It was weak on the flavours. The coconut flavour was lacking and didn't taste very strong. It wasn't very salty and lacked depth to it. No curry flavours at all. It was more sweet than anything else. The noodles were also not cooked that great. The vermicelli broke very easily. On the upside the portion was not too small and there was a good amount of fishballs. Presentation was also not bad. read more

In Crystal Mall's Chinese food court, Ipoh Bean Sprout Chicken sticks out as the only place that offers Malaysian style cuisine. Since this place has been here for awhile, I was quite excited to try the food and experience some Malaysian food at a cheap price. My expectations were somewhat disappointing after coming here though. After browsing through the menu, I decided to get the Penang Fried Char Kuey Teow, which is a very typical Malaysian dish. The cost was about $8.50 so it was in line with the price at the other restaurants in the food court. The wait was normal and I got my order in about 15 minutes. The Char Kuey Teow however didn't really seem that authentic and reminded me more of HK-styled food, and the noodles were pretty greasy. Based on my interaction when I ordered before, the staff here seem to be Malaysian Chinese so I was a bit surprised by my food. Maybe they are catering to the taste-buds of the Chinese population here but either way I felt like I got a really standard Chinese dish instead of a Malaysian dish. The portion was also a bit small and I was still a bit hungry after eating my meal here. Overall, I would probably tell people to try this place at least once and see if other items on the menu are more authentic. I do come to Crystal Mall a lot but since this experience I haven't been back to this particular restaurant. With such fierce competition here between all of the restaurants, its really a prosper or perish situation and unfortunately Ipoh comes up a bit short. read more

It is one of those experiences that I didn't expect, I thought I was in a safe haven coming to the notorious Crystal Mall food court, I thought that any vendor here couldn't ruin my experience and expectation, I thought my stomach would leave a happy camper and I would continue to praise everything that has opened shop in this food vendor mecca, and then you showed up! I frequent this food court quite often and was waiting for an opportunity to try this place, I finally got the chance cause my mind said, let's do this! So while my dear was ordering next door to this vendor I went in for the quick order, the picture looked great (the picture they used to represent their food) and my $7.50 was robbed from me for an order of fried chicken nasi lemak. The wait begins, as I was expecting some tasty to come out of this place, and the wait was long, considering the end result and what came out onto my tray (unless they were catching the chicken live in some farm!) which was nothing like the picture that was promoting the food, talk about bait and switch indeed, I felt I was being swindled. When I brought it back to my table, my partner gave the look of 'huh', and it wasn't the good kind. What was this thing, kind of an over battered KFC wing I got here, nicely plated on my styrofoam plate, in the middle we had coconut rice, on the side we had a half boiled egg (not the sambal I'm used to), some anchovies with nuts (dried, looks like something I can buy in seperate snack packs at my local ethnic mart), some chips that looked like some poor tacos, and some sambal sauce. Remember, when you get this plate, look back at that picture they had on the menu, you will go 'huh' too! So even the food looks 'so-so' how does it taste you ask, my answer is I need a redemption meal, badly, it wasn't good, not in the least. Let's get to the main piece, the chicken, this is when mass produced fried bird does taste better, I would have gladly traded anyone for a piece of the Colonel Sanders secret recipe in a heartbeat. The battered skin was over battered where I felt I was eating flour, there was no taste, not in the batter nor the meat, talk about mystery meat, mixed with mystery batter, WTF was I eating? The rice was lightly scented with coconut, and tasted alright, the chips were a little too hard, the sambal sauce was just that, sauce, mix with rice and eat, this was practically junk food served on a plate and eaten with tools, compared to known junk food you just eat with your hands. If you want that bad egg in the group, then I think I found it, for so much promise of something new in a food court that has many solid contenders serving up some pretty authentic food, this has to be the low point. So much promise, as no one else serves this kind of cuisine anywhere in the mall, yet they have dropped the ball and almost made me think of not returning to the food court, I hope that when you do come to this place, this is not the first experience you have, or you would be scared off. You could have been non-memorable, but this meal decided to be memorable in that nasty sense where I was looking for the cold coffee I kept in the car to wash the taste out of my mouth. At one moment driving away, I saw the golden arches, and was inclined to clean my palate with this food. read more

My review may be a bit biased since I order only one thing lol. But since coming back from Asia I've been turned off by laksa because it just isn't the same here. On my hunt for great laksa I have stumbled upon this little place inside Crystal Mall. I have to say, it is the BEST laksa I've had so far in Vancouver!! I believe they have two types of laksas and the one I'm talking about is the Singapore laksa. The laksa comes with tofu, fish balls, some other kinds of meat and two different types of noodles. It's really neat they do that. One is the thin rice noodle? Or vermicelli noodle? And the other is a thicker yellow noodle I have no idea what it is. As much as I like the double noodle combo in the beginning. As I've continued to eat this, I realized that I only want the thin noodle but I keep forgetting to ask them every. Single. Time. All in all, come here for their laksa. It's fantastic! And have some xiao long baos from that corner store diagonally across from them while you're at it. read more

I ordered nasi lemak and it was presented exactly like the average nasi lemak u can find in Malaysia. I feel like the sambal is not spicy at all.. There's no kick to it but they probably dilute it to cater for the locals here. But, they have better sambal at the condiment section which is delicious. Overall, it's a decent nasi lemak. I gave it 4 stars because it's still better than most Malaysian restaurants I been in BC. read more

We always get the flat rice noodle with shrimp and egg sauce. Delicious! The pickled jalapeños that come with it are yummy. Too many things in the good court, when we'd go we buy things from at least 3/4 vendors, and this is the dish we get from here. I've tried the vermicelli laksa before and it's ok. Nothing I would crave again. Get these noodles !!! read more

They served some average food. I tried the Singaporean laksa. Soup base was alright. I can taste a hint of coconut and some heat. I found the toppings to be a bit meager. Not too bad for $7.25. I was full from eating noodles. My mom tried some herbal, slightly bitter tea soup with a side of rice. I cannot recall the name of the item. It has some mushrooms, a couple pieces of tofu puff, a few pieces of pork belly (literally 3 pieces) and some herbs. She was very disappointed with this meal and called it the worse meal she has eaten at this food court. It was mainly soup with very little solid ingredients. She said it tasted nothing like what she has eaten at China. Her soup costed more than mines at $7.75. Plus, her meal was basically liquid and rice. I could barely enjoy my laksa because all I can smell was the herbal concoction my mom was attempting to eat. She ended up drizzling my laksa soup base over her rice to eat something. Service was fast. I think there are probably some better tasting items on their menu. However, I have had better food at other stalls in this mall so I think it will be awhile before I pay another visit to this place and take a gamble. read more

Found this little spot by chance and was immediately drawn to it. The kway teow was AMAZING and very authentic, the kind I'd get in Brunei. The flavours were great, with some spice to it . The Laksa was so delicious that my friend, who can't tolerate spicyness, was ALL OVER IT like a fly on poop. He paid for it later, but said it was totally worth it. Every time I go to Vancouver, this is on my list. While I sit in my house in Edmonton, I dream of the Laksa at Ipoh Bean Sprout Chicken. read more

I thought of getting their Ipoh bean sprout chicken but when asked about their most popular dish seafood laksa seems to be the one. So I got an order of that to try. For $8.50, you get a lot of noodles and average laksa broth with not so much seafood toppings. I like that they provide complimentary tea. read more

The Ipoh Chicken dish is great! The chicken was tender, juicy and flavourful, without being overly seasoned. The flavours were very delicate, and went very well mixed together with the bean sprouts and cilantro. The rice was on the harder size, to ensure that it wouldn't get soggy from the sauce. The sauce on the bottom of the rice was a sweet soy sauce, that paired well mixed with the other components of the dish. The cucumbers on the side were a nice touch, and added a refreshing textural component to the meal. I was pleasantly surprised by the soup that the meal came with. It wasn't watered down, and tasted as if it had been brewed for hours. I couldn't quite pinpoint what it was, but it tasted delicious! read more

Food is alright, nothing special. But the wait was ridiculous! 30 mins for a plate of fried noodles, jeepers. Not worth the wait!

As someone who came from Singapore, this is authentic southeast-asian cuisine! Quantity is just average, I would have loved more. Waiting time is a bit long (~10 mins), not ideal if you're in a rush. Friendly service with a smile, earns my recommendation. read more
