Wa Kiow Yong Tofu @ Peel Road

P1150317

This time around, we venture out of our comfort zone to the infamous Peel Road for Wa Kiow Hakka Yon Yofu that comes highly recommended by Boolicious and Sexy beast. You’ll be surprised at the crowd seen at this little wooden shack smacked between a hardware shop and a beauty salon.

The yong tofus are made and cooked on the spot. Other than yong tofu, they serve dishes such as vinegar pork trotters, assam fish, curry chicken and hakka char yoke. To order, just tick on the paper menu and indicate your portion.

Our order of yong tofu came piping hot and fresh. Each variety had its own distinguished flavor but the crowd’s favorites are fried sui kows (dumplings) and fried fu pei (bean curd) that was oh-so-crispy. T0 complement the meal, a big dose of fatty pork with wide strips of wood fungus (hakka char yoke) was ordered. The stew was strong with hint of nam yue (fermented bean curd) and the pork cubes were fork tender.

    Hakka food rocks! I think Hakka yong tau fu has a slightly different flavour and their hakka char yoke with black fungus is very delish!

    hahahahah We were at the YTF in front of this one, this one is good but we prefer the deep fried dumpling of the front shop cause inside the filling got salted egg yolk! lol!

    But we like the “chu keok choh” of this shop that you recommended real good! We like so much when we visit the last time!
