Since my current workplace is located near this gem hidden in a hawker centre nearby, I decided to give it a go. :D

'Hakka Yong Tau Fu'(客家娘豆腐)
So what's so special about 'Hakka Yong Tau Foo'?
Well for a start, rather than stuffing most of the ingredients with fish paste,
they are stuffing the ingredients with meat paste. Hence, besides for the usual
bitter gourd with fish paste, they also go all the way out making bitter gourd
with meat paste. On top of that, the staff owners have also gone the extra mile
frying some of the ingredients. For example: fried capsicum, fried bitter gourd,
etc... So basically, although every single ingredient might appear the same, but
the filling and the overall taste of the ingredient can differ. What I love best
about the food over here would be the soup. Although the clear soup might look
ordinary, but the generous portion of green vegetables that was added and the
super nice taste of the soup itself have definitely caught my interest. I think
that soybean was one of the ingredients that was added into the soup, but it
doesn't seems to be so simple. There's simply depth in the soup base, I think.
Although I'm not a big fan of rice vermicelli, but the sauces that was added into
the bowl of vermicelli have definitely helps a lot. The overall dining experience
is pretty nice. The sweet and spicy taste is definitely worth trying. :D
(By the way, I think they are making their own sauces, because I don't think
the taste of the sauces reminds me of anything out there.)

So where can you give the 'Hakka Yong Tau Fu' a try?
|
The name of this stall would be 'The Hakka Yong Tau Fu Stall'(客家娘豆腐).
It's located inside 'Ghim Moh Market and Food Centre'. |
Notes:- Opening Hours:
From 08:30am till 14:30pm
(Closed every Mondays) - Take note, during lunch hours, the queue at this stall can be pretty crazy. Hence, it ended up to be a matter of either you go there pretty early or you don't.
- By the way, ignore the queue over here. It's probably a 'fake' queue of people crowding around the stall waiting for their food. You should take a bowl of ingredients and pass it to the auntie standing next to the stall and tell her how would you want it to be prepared. She will pass you a piece of paper with a queue number written on it. And you can go around the food centre sourcing for more yummy stuff while waiting for the food. Just remember to pick up your precious bowl of 'Yong Tau Fu' afterwards.
