The Legend Bean Curd

Most helpful reviews

I’m dedicating 2 #throwbackthursday reviews to one of my hometown favourites 😋 I just so

happened to have a couple photos of the place in my gallery! My family frequently the place at least once a month, hardly ever though since I left home, because every weekend one of the siblings got to pick a restaurant for our weekend outside dinners and this was almost always my pick 😄 It’s a lacto-ovo-vegetarian place with quite a number of vegan-friendly options if you avoid the butter-fried dishes and omelettes. This however is a must try there! The #tofu or #beancurd? I guess is deep fried and paired with a nice mushroomy sauce. It’s been a couple years since I’ve last been here, but here’s hoping they’re still as good 🍄 #mushroomlover #throwback #veganin2021

I totally forgot to take a picture of this dish because… Well, I actually don’t

use social media and documenting my meals aren’t quite as habitual yet 😅 Luckily, my sister managed to share me a snap of this and my other dishes. (She food journals)

Based on the name it seems this is a signature dish. However, vegans beware as the original beancurd they use is the egg kind so make sure to request the non-egg tofu as I did. The sauce had a slightly more liquid consistency. But it still had the minimum level of thickness to qualify it as sauce to begin with. Though I have no idea what spices and mixes they’re using, it has a wonderfully subtle herbal fragrance I can’t quite identify. Also, considering the switch in #tofu , I suspect it didn’t feel as nicely seasoned because it was a dish intended to marry well with the original eggy taste. Then again… My experience with their fried rice was also an under-seasoned one. Perhaps this restaurant was just born to be mild 😛🥸

Overall RM 13 for a small sized this like this is a solid average. I’d still say it’s worth a try 😊

I mildly recommend 🤓
