My new go-to whenever I crave for YTF! The taste is what I like for a normal dry bee-hoon mee YTF, the sauce and chili, and the sesame seeds, suit me very much!!

This laksa was absolutely phenomenal! The rich, creamy coconut broth was perfectly spiced, with a delightful hint of chili that provided a pleasant warmth without being overpowering. The noodles were cooked perfectly, and the generous portions of tofu puffs and other ingredients added wonderful texture and flavor. The overall presentation was also very appealing. A truly satisfying and authentic laksa experience – highly recommended! This Lor Mee was absolutely delicious! The dark, savory sauce was rich and flavorful, perfectly coating every ingredient. The generous portions of braised meat were tender and succulent, and the addition of the soft, perfectly cooked egg added a wonderful textural contrast. The overall combination of textures and flavors was superb. I highly recommend this dish! Five stars!

My 1st try for this YTF stall. Value for money. 5pcs with noodles for $4.80. I went for the laksa gravy for my 1st try. Gravy is mild coconut taste, fragrant and not overwhelming. Normally has a queue during lunch and dinner hours. Here they have double queue. Queue to select your ingredients, pass the bowl to the staff and state your noodle, soup/dry, laksa gravy before queueing up again for the collection and payment of food. 2 staffs work fast. There is no refry for fried items here. Overall a good eat in this kopitiam, will definitely have it again.

Ate with glass noodles and clear soup. The various ingredients and soup were all tasty. Sauce also good. The fried items were fried again separately, which I appreciated. What could be better is the variety, it seems to be on the smaller scale side in terms of variety, but still acceptable.

A very hearty bowl of YTF. Ingredients were fresh mostly, except the stingily cut pieces of cured cuttlefish(which I didn't select) . Fried items would be refried prior to serving. Broth is flavourful. Ordering and serving is systematic.

More choices of fried items would be better. Please provide more sauce for packed food, as the sauce gets dried up during the 10-minute walk home.
