Ipoh Food Search - Funny Mountain Soya Bean

If your stomach still has space after some scrumptious dim sum from Foh San, drop by at this little corner lot across the road from Foh San. Funny Mountain claims themselves as Tau Fu Fa (Soy bean curd) and Soy Milk specialists. It's a fact indeed as it has been here for the pass 20 years and their popularity among Ipoh people remains.


Sometimes I wonder why wouldn't they make it big through franchise or shift to a bigger shop lot? I'm sure they have their own reasons for that. Even though they are located at this humble little place, their business are pretty good where most people would stopped their car for take aways. Few long wooden benches were placed for patrons who prefer to have their tau fu fa on the spot.

White White (Soy Milk + Soy Bean Curd) - RM 0.70 for one. Some terms that will make your order easy: White Black (Cincau + Soy Milk), White White, White White Black (Cincau + Soy Milk + Soy Bean Curd)

Plain Tau Fu Fa with Ginger Syrup RM 0.70. This is intensely smooth that I had a second bowl. Now I now why am I so chubby in my past 18 years in Ipoh. I guess coming back once in a while and indulge myself doesn't cost much harm right? (Lame excuses :P)

I really like the tau foo fah here. Tried it once and became a fan as it's so nice and smooth. Too bad it's so far away or else can eat it more often.
