Tiong Bahru Yong Tao Hu Set Lunch
Yong Tau Foo, Non-Halal
Description
Post by Chiefeater Luke Soon
Located in an extremely clean and bright coffee shop in Tiong Bahru, Tiong Bahru Yong Tao Hu swiftly churns out orders in less than 5 minutes after you order. The menu is kept simple. Simply choose between dry and soup options, followed by the portion that you wanted — SGD5.80 for small, SGD7.80 for big. I chose the smaller portion as it was recommended for 1 pax. The latest addition to the menu is their laksa broth. Although I did not personally try the dish, the red hot soup looked creamy and thick.
In comparison to most yong tau foo stalls, the main difference found at Tiong Bahru Yong Tao Hu is the inability to choose your own ingredients. Every set purchased here comes with standard items.
It’s perhaps unfair for me to rate - as I violated one of my principles ie if the same dish is available in Malaysia and Singapore, to only eat the former. Else it always ends up with regret.
There was zero Hakkaness- the hold flavours of salted fish in the fillings and pastes. There was no deep fried edges to add bite and crispness. The soup base wasn’t ikan bilis (if it was - very faint) infused. The chilli sauce wasn’t well, just wasn’t. Total damage SGD6.50 for Ampang (!!!!) Yong Tau Foo set sans rice.
The Yong Tau Doo pieces were lathered in thick brown sauce (I’m guessing similar to abalone and sea cucumber dishes in Cantonese restaurants). This was perhaps the best part of the meal. The YTF at Tiong Bahru Yong Tao Hu is a 5.5/10 for me.
