I was thrilled when I drove pass a row of shops at Kelana Jaya and noticed that Ipoh Road YTF had just opened a branch in PJ recently. Alas, with my absent mind; I soon forgotten about this place for a few months...
Until I met Jane, who stays around there; and we decided to pop over after all. It was rather pack when we reached; but we were quickly seated and ordering was prompt..
Waited for a while for our food to be served..
We ordered some stuffed white tow foo (YTF RM0.90 per piece).
Visually appealing; guess it stops there? The tow foo was quite smooth, but everything else was bland. The stuffing and the sauce was tasteless. I was disappointed.
We got our assorted YTF next..
Stuffed brinjal is a must for me...The rest were merely sidekicks..hehe
This was quite nice, the brinjal was not too mushy nor too oily. Again, the stuffing was rather bland. The rest of the YTF were also mediocre.The sauce in this plate seems thicker; maybe they thickened it with cornstarch..
Some fried foo chook (bean curd roll) and fried sui kow (dumpling)..
I think the main branch in Jalan Ipoh serves a much better version..The foo chook here was salty while the sui kow was average (didnt like the fact that I got a unsealed sui kow :( )
The soup sui kow didnt fare that well either..
The sui kow was average though the fishballs were quite good, had a nice bounce to it; but the soup tasted like boiled "flour water". Guess they didnt really make any soup? What I got was just the water used to boil the sui kow and fishballs added with some pepper and vegs?
We ended our meal with paper wrapped chicken (RM3)..
This was better; the chicken was juicy and the sauce was flavourful. Pretty good, though I would have preferred the Balakong paper wrapped chicken anytime..
So, would I be eager to return to this place for another meal?
No.
But I would still try it one more time in the future; maybe, just maybe, the chef have forgotten about the salt just for today.
Ipoh Road YTF (PJ Branch) is located at No 1, Jalan SS40/2, People's Park, 47301 Petaling Jaya. From Kelana Jaya LRT station (station on your left), drive down the road for about 200 m. You'll see a row of shops on your left, the YTF shop is at the left corner.
