Weekends would usually mean the indulgence of cheap yet delicious hawker food for breakfast and it's rare to find me drawn to the healthier yong tau foo when there are so many others to choose from at Chong Pang hawker centre.
There were two reasons; firstly, that bowl of yong tau foo on the signage looked really appetising and reminded me of the famous one at Chinatown; secondly, Alex has been visiting the gym recently and his progressively built-up body is making me extremely conscious of my fat-laden one!
That second reason didn't stop me from having item number 3; yong tau foo noodle! I needed carbohydrates badly that morning even though i didn't realise it was the yellow noodle type that i totally abhor!
Thanks to the sweet sauce and the aromatic fried shallots - the noodle didn't taste horrid as expected and was in fact nice enough for me to clean up the bowl.
I am not usually a soup person even though i tend to veer towards the watery diet whenever there's a pending medical checkup or i need to lose some weight! The latter could have been the motivation but i am also craving for Yong Xiang Xing Yong Tau Foo.
Honestly speaking, the soup was bland rather than flavourful although the element of a less salty and hence healthier benefit could appeal to health-conscious individual. The liao (ingredients) were freshly made (i know as i saw the workers taking out the raw ingredients to make the individual items for yong tau foo) and tasted good; albeit not as mind blowing as Yong Xiang Xing Yong Tau Foo.
Nevertheless, it didn't stop me from clearing every single item; except for maybe a little bit of remaining soup.
