Chew Chew 臭豆腐(Fermented Beancurd) VS Bandar Puteri 臭豆腐(Fermented Beancurd).

As promised to all, I will try Bandar Puteri 臭豆腐(Fermented Beancurd). Finally, I have tried it this afternoon. Infact, I have overheard from a few friends that this restaurant serves stink! stink! 臭豆腐(Fermented Beancurd). Is this more stink than Chew Chew 臭豆腐(Fermented Beancurd)?? The answer is YES!!!!

This restaurant is located opposite Haier warehouse at Bandar Puteri Puchong. The owner Frank Ang took over this business 5 months ago. He was gratuated from Taiwan and he is also passionate about good food. This shop serves Taiwanese cruising. The chef also from Taiwan and their famous dishes is 臭豆腐(Fermented Beancurd)!









The interior is simple and neat.
Look no different from "Chew Chew" except the plate they use. 1 portion has 6 pieces. The appearance is lighter colour as compare to Chew Chew and the sauce is different.
It has a brown sauce laid on top of the fermented beancurd. According to the owner, this sauce is special order from Taiwan. The taste is so unique. I can taste some mince garlic inside this special sauce. Can't really figure out what sauce it is.                     
Can you see the different between this fermented beancurd and Chew Chew fermented beancurd? Ok. Chew Chew fermented beancurd deep fried until 80% crispy and 20% still raw. Whereas, this fermented beancurd fried 20% crispy and 80% raw. However, Chew Chew also has the Taiwan style fermented beancurd with 10% crispy and 90% raw. Despite Chew Chew Taiwan fermented beancurd has the ratio 10:90 but it is not as stink as this fermented beancurd.


This is their speical sauce. You can see some fermented bean(豆酱)in the sauce.  Whereas, Chew Chew is using homemake garlic chilli sauce. If you take this sauce alone, you feel a bit salty. But when you dip the fermented beancurd in it and eat, it will enhanced the "stink smell" and the smell will linger in you mouth and I was kind of like enjoy the aroma of the fermented beancurd. So nice. the more you chew, the more the "stink" release. Yummy. Buy the way, it is not spicy compare to Chew Chew fermented beancurd.                   

The tangy cabbage pickle. The boss said his pickle is better than Chew Chew. Very subjective. This is less sour.


This is another delicacy remended by the boss. Taiwan sausage. This sausage is bigger than the normal Taiwan sausage that we normally see. The taste is nice. You can eat it with garlic flake(white colour showed in the photo). I found that it is normal and I can't give much comment about this and only can said "nice".

Look at this. This pot I have never try because this pot need to book and special order. I'm really looking forward to try this. Allegedly when they served this pot, some off the customers ran away because cannot stand the smell. For those hardcore 臭豆腐 lover, you should try this man! it serves hot with numb and spicy.

Finallly, you can find their contact as followed:

Come back to the captioned, which one is the best? I would said if you want crispy and spicy, then opp for Chew Chew. If you want stronger taste, try this.
