Chiefeater Chu Boon made an Ipoh stopover on his north south journey and had lunch at Dong Tai Kopitiam Pasir Pinji


Thai
Ordered the Pad Kra Pow with minced meat and omelette (RM17.70) at Pad Boy Paramount, and it turned out to be one of the better Thai-style rice dishes in PJ. The meat was minced to just the right size — not overly fine — giving each spoonful a satisfying bite. The accompanying fried egg was golden and lacy at the edges, just the way a proper Thai omelette should be.

They offer a few levels of spiciness, but I went for the “Malaysian Spicy” or Nit Noy option — which, true to its name, hit a fiery yet enjoyable level of heat without crossing into painful territory.
Every element worked together beautifully: the minced meat was savoury and fragrant from basil and garlic, the peppers added crunch and sweetness, and the chilli provided a slow-building burn that lingered nicely. The omelette soaked up the sauce well, balancing the spice with its fluffy texture. It’s the kind of comfort food that hits the spot — straightforward, well-executed, and genuinely tasty.

Score: 8.8/10
Pad Boy SS2 scores Flavour (9.0) for its robust seasoning and balance.
Experience (8.6) for consistency and good service.
Value (8.7) for its generous portions.
A dependable Thai spot in PJ that doesn’t compromise on flavour or heat.
