Lao Ban Bean Curd 老伴豆花 @Maxwell Hawker Centre - Revisit
Since i had the lao ban beancurd, I am constanly craving for it again! There must be something that they have put in the beancurd. I went back on a Friday afternoon with my colleagues. It was opened much earlier, and there was at least 5 people queueing at 1145am!

Lao Ban Bean Curd 老伴豆花 @Maxwell Hawker Centre
Banana has been talking about this wonderful beancurd that was recently opened in Maxwell market. I only knew about Tian Tian chicken rice, and I was very intrigued by this mysterious beancurd. Is it better than Rochor & Selegie beancurd? How good can a beancurd be?
I decided to go to Maxwell for lunch as my meeting ended early. I arrived at Maxwell hawker centre at quarter past eleven, and I could see queue started to form at the famous porridge stall and the Tian Tian chicken rice. I walked around to search for Lao Ban Beancurd, thinking that it was 老板. I finally saw it at the unit #01-91, but it was shut! The coffee stall lady was very nice to tell me that they only open around noon. Alright, since I was already there, I shall patiently wait for it.
I had my chicken rice and patiently waited for the stall to open. I ordered coffee and chatted with the lady boss. She asked me how many i was buying, I said "6". "only 6!?!" "The first customer yesterday bought 50, the day before the guy bought 20!"
The boss of 老伴豆花 finally appeared at 1150amm and suddenly I could see people appeared from nowhere started to surround the stall! Gosh! I could heard the lady boss told the boss of 老伴豆花 that I was the first customer to arrive and she even walked up to me to tell me to start to queue even i have told the 老伴豆花boss my order.
After much effort, i finally got my 6 cans of 老伴豆花.
It is kind of different from the usual Rochor & Selegie beancurd. Not much sugar syrup, and it is not that sweet. The most amazing part was the texture, it was silky smooth, so smooth that it just slipped down your throat. I just felt that the bottom was a bit powdery. Is it worth the wait? For $1.50 per can, it was.
The secretaries went to buy it at 130pm and it was all sold out...such is the popularity of the beancurd. I will be back. This time, I will buy more.
