Yong Tau Fu
One of Singapore’s common hawker food is Yong Tau Fu. I like Yong Tau Fu. If you are sick and don’t feel like eating any other food, Yong Tau Fu is always a good choice because you can pick any ‘displayed food’ to be cooked with your ‘choice noodles’. Eat it dry, soup or even Lasksa/curry (they are quite the same).
Different stalls charged their items differently. Normally, they will write on the walls of their stalls how many minimum pieces of ‘Yong Tau Fu’ you must choose. I had eaten Yong Tau Fu from various places. The best one that I had ever eaten so far is from Lot 1 (Chua Chu Kang), but I have not been there for quite some time ever since I was pregnant and now (even worse) have to look after Isaac.
On 23 April 2010, my fridge went out of fish, and we went to Causeway Point to have lunch. We did not know which level to go (got 5th floor and 7th floor to choose). Finally, Richard settled for seventh floor and we went there.
Really do not know what to eat… walking past my favourite stall, I told myself the last time I ate at this stall – not to buy from them already because it is very expensive. For a bowl of curry Yong Tau Fu, which consists of mostly vegetables and bean curds skin (Tau Ki) and cuttlefish, I had to pay more than S$6-8.
However, Clara and I still decided to eat Yong Tau Fu because I am really sick of eating ‘lousy’ (even cockles kway teow is no longer the usual cockles kway teow…) food nowadays at the food courts.

Banquet is a food court that serves Muslim Food or Halal food. I had written before about the Rating of Singapore’s Food as shown below:

You can see that previously NEA uses blue prints for their ratings. Now, they change it to red, to be is so ugly… so distracting even like some kind of ‘Chinese New Year’ ‘decoration‘… perhaps this is to add ‘LUCK‘ to the stall then since red symbolize auspicious. In case you cannot see clearly in the photograph what is exactly the red ‘thing’ that you see in the photograph above, this is a close-up below:
From far, the contrast may not be that good, but from closer view like this, you can see that the stall gets an “A” for cleanliness and hygiene — EXCELLENCE to be exact.
Below the big letter A in this photograph above, you can see the logo of NEA, National Environment Agency on the right and then some small prints on the left. It is not obvious if you don’t see clearly, open your eyes big big and stand in front of the chart.
So what you think of this Yong Tau Fu stall with such a nice LETTER A, big red red auspicious letter A? Besides all this, it also has Certificate of commendation, got ‘My Pledge OK’ sticker, Halal sticker and some more frame-up certificates in the stall (which I cannot even read).
Are you salivating to eat a bowl of Yong Tau Fu?
