Soy good

Bought a cold and sweet soy drink. Ideal for the warm weather and the bustle of the Petaling Street Market in Chinatown. The stall is cash or GrabPay only. While I enjoy soy a lot, it might not be for everyone.

Simple is better

Simple, tasty and nutritious dessert for cheap.
A big surprise that the soy curd with ginger and sugar was served hot.

LOVE.

Amazing fresh and delicious soy milk! I tried both the milk and the dessert and absolutely loved both. It’s a popular spot and they were already closed the first night I tried to go. The dessert reminded me of flan. And I used to love flan. The milk was so fresh and amazing. I ended up with grass jelly in it, which I ended up straining out for fear of gelatin. But it is possible to get it without. It was all so good. I’d come back to KL just for this!

Not for anyone

Tried this just out of curiosity and because I like both silken tofu and ginger. I didn't like them together that much😄Or maybe it was the sugar... But at least I got my daily protein dose.

Pros: Cheap, Interesting authentic experience

Cons: Didn't like it :D

Interesting dessert

We got the To Fu Fah in our own bowl which is great. It comes with a lot of sugar, so we would order it with less the next time. But it’s really delicious

Pros: Cheap, Homemade , Yummy

Cons: Lots of sugar

Cheap and tasty vegan dessert

This stall right in center of Jalan Petaling is a vegan sweet gem. I had to the warm soft tofu with ginger and sugar syrup and it was delicious! Cheap as well. Always people there. Try bring your own container as they only serve in disposable plastic.

Pros: Vegan desserts

Cons: Serves everything in disposable plastic

Soy milk and silken tofu dessert

Place was super popular with locals which is always a good sign! We had a soy milk which was served cold, a bit sweet but still really good. We also had the tofu with i think ginger sugar - it’s served warm with syrup over the top, not the best thing ever but definitely worth trying! Only downside to this place is the sheer amount of plastic used - considering a lot of people were standing round and eating it, reusable bowls would be nice

Delicious!

We saw many people walk around with the soymilk, and tried it & we were positively surprised! Try it with brown sugar.

fresh and cheap

traditional chinese dessert. Texture might be weird if you try it for the first time. Definitely an acquired consistency and taste. Not too sweet and very fresh.

Pros: fresh, cheap

Tau foo what?

I tried the Tau Foo Fah and expected it to be cold but it was actually warm. I think I probably would have liked it better if it was cold but it was worth it since it was cheap.

Just went after they opened so I assume it should be warm.

An unusual but cool stall!

Right in the middle of Petaling street market so was pretty busy and needed to queue. Was a bit uncomfortable to wait. Server was super efficient and was quite fun to watch him serve and bag as if he has done it a million times before (maybe he has?). Had the pudding and the drink. Drink was a decent, fresh soy drink. The pudding was strange....still not sure if I liked it or not!

Pros: Speedy service, Soy milk drink was good

Cons: An acquired taste shall we say..., Long line, Not the best place to have to queue

cheap

For me (European) it was an unusual thing to try, so that was cool, also very cheap. I tried the tofu desert and unfortunately did not like it. But it's definitely worth a try!

Pros: cheap, something new and unusual

Cons: did not like it

Typical Chinese desert

Tau Foo Fah is a famous Chinese desert and you will see a lot of Chinese waiting in line for it. It is good! It's very simple: silky tofu served with a sweet ginger syrup. They also offer soy milk with the same syrup and jelly grass if you wish. Both items are 1,70 ringgits.

Pros: Very cheap, Good desert
