Jalan Ipoh Yong Tau Foo - A brief note

This post was meant to be published yesterday, but I got lazy. Anyways, Amanda and I went for breakfast over this place, "Jalan Ipoh Yong Tau Foo".

The name might be a little deceiving, for this restaurant is not exactly located at Jalan Ipoh but at Jalan Segambut.

Extra chewy fish balls. Yum!


The ordering style is like Kim Gary's, a paper and a pencil. You just need to count the number of ingredients that you want and write them down.

However, the price for each ingredient (i.e. fish ball, bean curd, lady's finger, etc.) is much more expensive than the ones in Malacca.

Eggplant and "tau kua". Superb!

This would be my first time eating Yong Tau Foo with rice, as they do not serve noodles. The fish balls were fresh and chewy. The eggplant was superb.

Basically, everything was good. I guess this is the reason why people are willing to pay almost one ringgit for just one fish ball or ingredient.

The paper where the restaurant determines our orders. Note: the price for each thing.

Overall cost of the day? For my portion alone, it was RM 10.80. I guess living in KL basically means inflated prices.

Although that was a huge amount to pay for a meal, I guess it was alright as it was so delicious.

The fried bean curd. Awesome.

A brief note: Michelle got lazy that early morning when she ignored our SMSs. We invited her over for breakfast as she lives somewhere along Jalan Ipoh.
