F.M.S. Bar & Restaurant (GPS: 4.59866, 101.07807) is a historic shophouse in the Ipoh Old Town. Located at the junction of Jalan Sultan Yusuf with Jalan Sultan Idris Shah, it opened in 1906 and became the watering hole of European miners and planters. The F.M.S stands for Federated Malay States.
Today the F.M.S. Bar & Restaurant is still in operation, holding the distinction of being the oldest restaurant in Malaysia, and run by the fourth generation. The place is now a location on the Ipoh Heritage Trail.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
