IPOH: THE Ocean Bird Nest Sdn Bhd is promoting its bird's nest packages at a discounted rate until Sept 30.

The newly-formed outlet is located at Lot 1, First Floor, Ritz Garden Hotel at 86, Jalan Yang Kalsom, here.

The bird's nests are graded as triple A, double A, super A and A are priced from RM1,800 to RM6,500.

The outlet also offers bird's nest soup at RM80 per bowl.

Ocean Bird Nest director Tan Boon Seng said the outlet was the first in Ipoh which wholly sells genuine bird's nest and soup.

"The bird's nest is sourced locally from places such as Lumut, Ipoh, Penang and Seremban.

"The shop will enable locals to buy bird's nest at a reasonable price instead of the exorbitant prices charged in neighbouring countries.

"Bird's nest is popular with tourists and serves well as festive gifts," said Tan.

He said that bird's nest contained health properties like collagen and protein for anti-aging, adding that it was also good for reducing cough and strengthening the lungs.

The outlet opens from noon until 11pm daily. For enquiries, call 05-253 3800.
