    The name itself is a dead giveaway that their tau foo fah is no ordinary one and in fact, their organic source has become an establishment that is incomparable like no other. Kulai Lou Pan Organic Beancurd claims to contain no preservative, no gypsum powder, and no colouring in making them but that does not mean it is less high in calcium. Without a doubt the perfect tau foo fah for calorie-counters out there and what more is that it is available at their outlet centre in Karamunsing Centre. 

    Tips

    Have a go for their other flavour as well such as green tea or almond.

    Things to expect

    Soft organic texture that would make the cut most of the time.
