“This is the best crispy ‘cucur udang’ I’ve ever had in Ipoh. One serving is never enough!” exclaimed a satisfied diner at Impiana Hotel, Ipoh.
A visit to Impiana Hotel Ipoh isn’t complete without savouring their iconic Cucur Udang, a dish that has captured the hearts of locals and visitors alike.
“Our recipe and batter preparation techniques are meticulously crafted to stand out. Each ‘cucur udang’ is fried fresh to preserve its quality and signature crunch,” shared Executive Chef Mohd Nizam Abdul Rahim, who boasts over 33 years of culinary expertise.
Unlike traditional versions, these crispy prawn fritters prioritize a crunchy texture in every bite, with a delightful sound that enhances the eating experience.
“We use ‘udang kertas’ (small prawns), which not only add flavour but elevate the crispiness of the dish,” added Chef Nizam.
Served with homemade peanut sauce and chilli dip, the Cucur Udang is available à la carte for RM18.00 per serving.
Diners can also enjoy an exclusive promotion: mention the promo code ‘Ipoh Echo (IHIECHI24)’ to the cashier and receive a complimentary ‘teh tarik’.
So why wait? Head to Impiana Hotel Ipoh and treat yourself to this viral culinary delight!’
