We have been passing by this place a lot of times and never had the chance to try it. Just recently, we saw this Laksa Yong Tau Foo place went viral on social media and we decided to make it a necessary stop for our meal.

Foon Yew Laksa-San Lou |
Considering a weekday, the carpark lots were almost taken up during lunchtime.

Busy Place |
I was overwhelmed by the crowd at Foon Yew Laksa-San Lou when we reached there. There were quite a lot of people in the queue choosing their Yong Tau Foo items. The variety of items was plenty and seemed fresh.

Pick your Yong Tau Foo |
Their variety of items is definitely more than what we have from our Singapore YTF stall. They have raw fish balls and black quail eggs that caught my attention. While this place is famous for its Laksa, they do also serve the non-spicy version ~ clear soup.

For Laksa, you will be asked if cockles are needed. The cockles were small and placed on top of the YTF. There are a number of noodles options: Yellow Noodles, Kway Teow and Bee Hoon. The Laksa gravy was spicy and tasted of spices with coconut milk balancing it, complimenting everything well. However, it tasted thicker with the coconut milk

The fish paste tasted fresh and bouncy. Crunchy beansprouts were part of the Laksa order too.

The items were well-fried and definitely yummy.

Fried Egg Plant |
For those who want to give Laksa a skip, you can order the dry noodle version with items in soup. The Noodles are tossed in black sauce without the usual Singaporean kind of Sweet & Chilli Sauce. The clear soup tasted good with hints of soybeans.

Non-Laksa Version |
No doubt that the items are fresh and yummy I find that the Laksa spiciness level was not suitable for my tummy. Nonetheless, this famous Laksa Yong Tau Foo place has been popular with many and had its returning customers. For 3 bowls of Yong Tau Foo and 4 drinks, we paid about 65 RM.
