Lao Ban Soya Beancurd (已結業)

My first time trying out the famous lao ban soya beancurd as I generally prefer those traditional type of beancurd. But it turns out to be a great experience. Lao ban beancurd is quite smooth and has that strong soya taste which makes it taste so great. However, I find it a little too sweet, but taste great.

The number Lao Ban Soya Beancurd stalls has multiplied these years from their original Old Airport Road Stall.When Lao Ban had its stalled opened in CityVibe, we got to see long snaky queues all the way up to the nearby taxi stand everyday after work without fail. Their faithful diehards were all preparing to wait for the delivery man to replenish the stock even though it was sold out at the point of queueing. Business were real good during then.Novelty soon wore off, perhaps due to their rapid

Bought 6 boxes of Lao Ban from the Clementi outlet. It tastes just the same as the one from Old Airport Road. Personally, I am not a huge fan of this new tau huay that has gotten popular over the recent years. In my opinion, Lao Ban adds too much coffeemate and I can't finish a whole box on my own and if I finish the whole box, it leaves a sick taste in mouth. I am still a fan of the whole school Tau Huay, with its tofu texture in the syrup!

What's a good meal without desserts? More often than not, when I am around Clementi central for a dinner, Lao Ban is always the "after meal place" that I head to for desserts. You see, the only place months ago to have Lao Ban is Old Changi Road, but after new outlets emerged all over the city, Lao Ban Soya Beancurd is much easier to get.Different from the traditional soya beancurd (where they serve with sugar syrup), newer renditions like Lao Ban's served it pre-mixed, and using a special recip

I suspect Lao Ban Soya Beancurd standards are dropping from its heydays. Back when it first started, the amount given was always nearly to the brim and that each bowl was smooth and almost creme brulee like. This bowl that I bought from Clementi was much too hard and felt too much like normal beancurd. It was also overly sweet and the bowl was just three quarters full. A pity.

$1.50 for ten minutes of happiness, Lao Ban still has that magic going in it. While there are many of similar Lao Ban standard bean curd going around, I think that there's still an extra oomph in Lao Ban. The solid to liquid melting in my mouth and the soy taste is just a perfect combination. This time it is less "sandy" then the last time I ate, an improvement. I used to choke a little on the "sandiness" but no more of that. I really like Lao Ban and it is a good after-meal dessert.
