I Love Yoo, Queens Food Market, Queensbay Mall, Penang

Once in a while, I have cravings for porridge.. just any porridge.. And if I’m happened to be in Queensbay, I will go for this one. It may not be the superior porridge you cook at home with loads of ingredients, dried scallops and dried oyster, but for the price you pay, it’s quite reasonable.

This is Set A, for MYR3.90, it comes with a bowl of smooth dried scallops porridge and a bowl of “you tiao” – deep fried crullers aka yau char kuay. Don bother locating the dried scallops, it’s just shreds that are not very much visible..
P1450687-1 Topped with some soy sauce, sesame oil, chopped spring onions and dash of pepper, the bowl of piping hot porridge goes very well with the “you tiao”.
P1450689-1
Light, simple meal, yet satisfying.

Some may opt to have the “you tiao” with a bowl of soya bean milk instead, just like how people eat in Hong Kong, for the same price.
They also have soya bean milk and tau fu far available beside the deep fried snacks such as butterfly bun, some called is “hua chee” and I’ve heard more vulgar names like “cow’s testicles” (in hokkien) hahahaha….also fried buns aka ham chim peng, both plain and with red bean fillings, sesame balls, sweet potato balls, and even mixed buns (the one with sweet sticky glutinous rice).

They currently have quite a number of franchise in KL and also Penang. Their website here.
