Yong Tau Fu

Have you tried having yong tau fu for breakfast? Lunch? or even Dinner?
I always love my yong tau fu with laksa gravy and still think it's a healthier choice. HAHAHA totally delusional. In any case, whenever you have yong tau fu, please have it in soup base and not dry nor laksa gravy because it is less fattening.

There are different versions of yong tau fu - teochew style, hokkien and even hakka. 
Here's a few pics of yong tau fu which i've tried and always revisit once in awhile.

1) Temasek Polytechnic (Itas - School of IT)
I have to say it's dirt cheap, nice and even though i've graduated from TP since '10, I've still gone back just to enjoy this wonderful dish. 8 ingredients for a price less than $4.00. My favourite way of eating it is, going dry /w thick bee hoon & lots of ingredients. Take 2 saucer of chilli sauce and dump it into the bowl and mix. Super fattening but hey! That's life right? as a glutton that is :D


2) Kovan Hawker Centre
Also cheap 8 ingredients with bee hoon and another bowl  only cost me $7. The soup was really tasty, with the yellow beans flavour! I like.


3) Famous Ampang yong tau fu @ Katong.
This is the portion for 3 people. It's alil costly than to the usual yong tau fu outside (min of 7 pcs plus noodles can cost you $4.70) but boy, I feel that it's worth the price. See the brown cracker? That is sooooo awesome to eat. Dip it into the soup and it taste even better. The downside is, you can't choose what ingredients you want. It's a standard dish - fishball, tofu, fishcake, eggplant, green chilli etc.


I recently saw a yong tau fu stall at a corner of chinatown hawker centre which i've yet to try and would love too since there was a really long queue (has to be good somehow). So stay tune!
