Restaurant Fatty Mok Hakka Yong Tau Foo at Salak South Garden


Nowadays it seems like good chef used to be fat, why I said so? The restaurant's logo will either be some chef icon with big tummy, or the name of the restaurant starting with "Fatty".

One fine day, Yap Can Fly's colleague - Pokok (meaning: tree. A weird nickname given maybe due to his height) was kind enough to bring Yap Can Fly explore Kuala Lumpur to try out some new restaurant. Pokok introduces Restaurant Fatty Mok Hakka Yong Tau Foo which located at Salak South Garden, where he spends most of his childhood there.

As there are varieties of Yong Tau Foo to choose from the menu, so Yap Can Fly have Pokok to suggest few which he fell is the nicest of all.


Pokok suggested Yap Can Fly this

Curry Ribs Mee

Then Pokok himself ordered this (which Yap Can Fly feel it looks nicer)

Dry Fried Meat Mee

We also order some side dishes - Yong Tau Foo (our main purpose to try at this restaurant)

Steamed Tau Foo, Lady Finger and Bitter Melon


Fried Dumpling

Well since it's only lunch for us and that's considered quite a lot for just two peoples. For the Curry Ribs Mee, the curry tastes a bit diluted and the aroma just wasn't there. As for the Dry Fried Meat Mee, Yap Can Fly didn't try on that but Pokok said his mum can cook the same dishes or might taste even better... And the Yong Tau Foo which we ordered tastes like ordinary Yong Tau Foo.

Their website does shows there is much more dishes available which are more like their signature dishes instead of the noodles we had.



The overall rating just on the foods on above...

Actrocious Journey to SCSM 2009


This coming Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon (SCSM) 2009 has been an unspeakable nightmare to Yap Can Fly.

On the left showing the official countdown timer taken from SCSM 2009 website. Now it's only left 48 days!


The good news is Yap Can Fly still eats well as usual, and even put on weight as good food are hard to resist. Now officially becoming Fatty Boom Boom Yap Can Fly.

Bad news is Yap Can Fly is seriously far left behind from his so called marathon training schedule. At First Yap Can Fly has high determination to jog at least 2-3 times a week... But now it turns out becoming hardly get his fat ass up and go jog once every two weeks...

The clock is tickling, and all the options left are not in favor to Yap Can Fly, besides train super duper harder :(

May the force be with Yap Can Fly...
