Yong Tau Foo, Street Food, Non-Halal
While running errands in PJ Old Town, I found myself at a simple, no-fuss eatery named Neighbourhood Noodle. Operating from 8 am to 2 pm, this unassuming place serves its community from inside a house, harking back to the early days of PJ's beginnings as a township. In those days, eateries didn’t operate out of flashy shophouses or malls like they do now. Instead, many were family-run establishments nestled within homes, catering to locals with homemade meals crafted for familiar palates. The Neighbourhood Noodle Shop embraces this tradition wholeheartedly.
I ordered a bowl of their handmade Yong Tau Foo (YTF), which featured freshly fried items that only hit the fryer when you place your order. Each piece is priced at RM2.20, and the selection, though limited to just 8 varieties, carried a wholesome, homemade touch. The filling, a mix of pork and fish paste, had a nice, firm texture, adding a delightful bite to each piece.
Among the YTF, the fried Sui Kow stood out to me. It had a satisfying crunch and was filled with jicama, carrots, and coriander, offering a burst of flavours to the palate.
While I appreciated the texture of the YTF here, I did find the overall seasoning a bit on the mild side—perhaps leaning towards a more subtle flavour profile, which I suspect is designed to cater to the tastes of their long-standing regulars.
Though it wasn’t entirely to my preference, this kind of humble, home-based eatery speaks to a bygone era when community was at the heart of every meal. It’s a reminder of how eateries like these are not just feeding people; they’re sustaining traditions.
