928 Ngee Fou Restaurant (Hakka) Ampang Yong Tau Fou - Upper Thomson

Unlike the typical yong tau foo stalls in hawker centres and food courts where you can arm yourself with a bowl and a pair of tongs to select the pieces, followed by the type of noodles and then dry or soup, all you need to do here is to report the number of people in your gang and wait for your turn to be served. Tucked away on the far north end of Upper Thomas Road, this place originated from Ampang Kuala Lumpur since 1970s is no stranger to many due to extensive coverage by the media.

The essence of the yong tau foo here is the tasty braising gravy, understood to contain roasted garlic, salted fish and ground fish powder, that harmonies with the ingredients, consisting of fried beancurd skin, fish balls, fried dumplings, quail eggs, fish paste filled bittergourd, ladyfingers, eggplant, kang kong and fried tofu and goes well with the steamed rice.

Good food is usually sinful food. But not here. Though there are several fried stuff, the meal is still overall healthy, yet nice one.

Parking is a challenge here, but you probably will have more luck in finding space at the landed property area behind.
