Lao Ban Soya Beancurd 老伴豆花 is a must try if you ever step into Old Airport Road Hawker Centre.

This was taken when I was there the first time during lunch time on a weekday. It was sold out, there was only almond favour left. (not a fan of almond) Instead, we went to try its competitor ‘51 Soya Bean‘. Will do a separate review at a much later time. The comparison is that Lao Ban Soya Beancurd is so much better/nicer.
On the 2nd visit, also during a weekday lunch time. My colleague went to queue for it. At least 15-20 minutes wait. I was told by my friend who went over during weekend that he queued 40minutes for this! If you notice carefully as you queue or eat in the hawker centre, some customers can buy 20 packets of this!

Their soya beancurd comes in original or almond flavour. The more popular favour is original which gets sold out first.
Beancurd (Original) $1.50
The beancurd looks so ordinary, plain. But well, looks can be deceiving! This beancurd is so soft, smooth, silky and looks like a jelly pudding. And unlike the normal beancurd (Tau Huay) that most Singaporeans are familiar with, this does not comes with sweet syrup. This beancurd practically melts in your mouth and liquid seems to burst out in your mouth. Moreover, it is just slide down your throat. At $1.50, this is a relatively cheap dessert!

Trust me, give this a try and you will not regret it.If it is sold out in the afternoon, there will be another batch out in the evening.

Warning: once you eat this, it will never be the same eating other type of beancurds.

  2. Yes. is really good. I prefer this to 51 soya bean. Its quite hard to land on lao ban these days as queues start forming even before they open and sell the 2 batches. I have seen pple buying over 20 tubs!

  4. Hi Rachel

    I am not sure how reliable their sms order service is as I have not try it personally.

    I believe details such as date, time and number of beancurds along with the flavour (orginal / almond)

    1. From Lao Ban Beancurd? I heard the standard at some outlets has dropped.

      No worries, If you want to do it yourself, go click on the chilled beancurd recipe link. Easy and quick solution.
