The wife of the owner of Bai Nian, Amy, was hospitalized a few years ago and during that period, she had strong cravings for yong tau foo. She did not enjoy the version that was found in the hospital as it was bland and unappetizing, so her husband, Andy, took it upon himself to prepare yong tau foo to her liking.
As she was not a fan of traditional Hakka-style yong tau foo that can be found in most parts of Singapore, he came up with a different version which featured smaller sized pieces that were tender, tastier, yet healthier. This involved mixing different types of pastes that are made with ingredients such as prawn, pork and fish.
In 2013, Andy decided to switch careers and opened his first Bai Nian Niang Dou Fu outlet at Albert Centre with approval from his wife. As it grew in popularity, they expanded the business so that more people can enjoy their delicious food and they now have a few outlets islandwide.
I really love the YTF here and the Yong Tau Foo Set is my go-to order here. It features a piping hot bowl of bee hoon and yong tau foo soup with a side of fried chicken.
While I found all the various, bite-sized pieces yong tau foo here delicious, the ones that were made with prawn paste were my absolute favorite. You can tell that they use fresh prawns just from the texture and taste of it and each piece was springy, crunchy and packed with umami.
Do note that there is only one noodle option, which is bee hoon, but I feel that that is good enough for me as the texture goes really well with the yong tau foo. All this is doused in a light, clear soup that does not overwhelm the flavours of the crunchy yong tau foo pieces.
I was also pleasantly surprised by the fried chicken that was served on the side of the yong tau foo. The lollipop-like chicken is coated in a fragrant batter and was insanely crisp and crunchy. Despite being freshly fried, it was not very greasy, so it did not leave your palate feeling overwhelmed.
