The Soybean Factory • Pandan Indah Ampang — Restaurant in Ampang Jaya Municipal Council

My first-ever Google review — because I genuinely didn’t expect to feel this annoyed over tau fu fa.

We ordered two bowls (RM12+ each) and added a cup of soy milk (which came close to RM9 after SST). In total, we paid over RM30.

For that price, here’s the “experience” we got: • Order yourself at the counter • Find your own seat • Self-service water • Clear your own table after eating

Only two staff working during a packed public holiday evening. Service was minimal, and it showed.

The food? It was okay. But definitely didn’t meet the standard I expected for what I paid. You can get similar tau fu fa at the market for RM2 — no frills, no chores, no “kind soul” guilt-tripping.

Yes, they even had a sign saying “Dear customers, kindly return your trays. Thank you, you kind soul :)”

Apparently, my kind soul was used… and taxed too.

I’m honestly amazed this place has been around this long. Must be powered by soybeans, nostalgia… and low expectations.

Anyway, I’ll leave this review here — just in case one day I check back and the shop is finally gone. That would make more sense than this...

Quaint and cosy environment, staff was very friendly and attentive, thumbs up for the service. I ordered cold tofufah with ginger syrup as side. I wouldn’t say it’s the best place to fix your tofufah crave, but the variety of options ranging from hot to cold food is something worth mentioning. In my opinion, it’s kinda small per serving for the price set, tofufah smooth and silken but not creamy enough in terms of flavour. Nonetheless, still a good dessert place...

We ordered white & pandan taufufah, and one Beryl’s almond doughnut. Taufufah is very smooth. Really like the pandan one, it is very fragrant 👍🏼

Their homemade glutinous ball comes with generous filling, very nice too. You can custom make any toppings you like to go on top of your taufufah, sugar syrup is also served separately.

Homemade doughnut is surprisingly good as it’s served hot.

Another good dessert place that I can gather with...
