Recently I heard from 陳真 that this Tofu shop is pretty good and as luck will have it, I actually had to do something personal in the nearby vicinity right after he mentioned here, so here I came and I'm glad I did! I think if anyone has read any of my other tofu shop reviews, you'll notice that I am highly annoying and extra hard to please - since I discovered that certain Tofu shops in HK really disappointed me, especially compared to say Tofu Shops in Kyoto or even Yokohama ***************
**************************
微暖豆腐花 -
Ordered warm rather than hot or cold, because I noticed them here. OH MY GOD - this is awesome!!! As soon as it arrived, I noticed something I haven't witnessed in other shops: the 豆香 part of the equation! When I say this, I actually mean, it SMELLS AROMATIC!
I instantly dug into my bowl and found that the 豆味 was also quite strong here, certainly the best flavour out of every other shop I went.
Next up, what about the texture, you might ask? Perfect score too! Although it was swimming in a sugar syrup soup with small hints of ginger, it was sliced beautifully and did not have the 'wavey' pattern which affects some harder tofu curds. It was really smooth and glides down the throat but still had lots of flavour.
豆漿 -
Not too sweet. As I mentioned somehwere before - I found many traditional Tofu shops suffer similar problems in that their Soy Milk is much stronger in taste than the Tofu Curd. There is no problem here, but.....
In this shop, the Soy Milk does carry some 豆味 but its not as strong as 廖同合, 義香,人和, 天天, etc. Certainly nowhere near 豆花開's very natural and much bolder soy flavour nor Hakata Ya in City Super. I didn't really enjoy this Soy Milk as much as I did its awesome Tofu Curd but it was definitely passable!
***********************
OVERALL - this would have to be the best 豆腐花 I have had in Hong Kong by far, but I haven't tried 建興亞婆豆腐花 to compare yet! Both the texture and the aroma or beans taste of the Tofu Curd was so apparent and in its own league. Its lucky 陳真 mentioned it recently and I just had the right opportunity to visit.
My 2nd preferred shop is still 廖同合 and they have the best Soy Drink out of all 'traditional' shops easily, but as I mentioned in that review I repetitively said and wished it had carried more beans taste, because that remained still weak though better than nothing like other places I tried! , plus that wasn't as smooth and aromatic as here either. That '5' is not equal to this HIGH '5'. I guess I just awarded that '5' because I can imagine some others or shop owners wouldn't seem too pleased with my too HARSH a score and being too critical... as usually I can be a bit naively honest and 有乜講乜 type of person, especially when having little time to compose reviews ! Behind these two? I would also 'personally' recommend 順興隆桂記荳品廠 & original 人和 to share the 3rd step on the podium, both of which aren't far behind 廖同合.
BUT HERE?
ITS LIGHT YEARS AHEAD OF EVERYONE ELSE.... UNBELIEVABLE!
