Obviously when talking about breakfast in
Tawau, the main choice that stands above and beyond the rest would have to be
the uber popular mee tauhu. So it’s
no wonder that mee tauhu based
eateries has been sprouting in and around town like nobody’s business. But
while most of them had opened full fledge kedai
kopi to accommodate the growing demands for the food (see a few of my
previous posts for further reference) I was actually impressed with this
particular wooden based, unassuming looking stall’s ability to withstand its
competition.
Located right by the roadside leading up to
the Tanjung Batu Tengah area (in close proximity to their Masjid Al-Aman and
err… a graveyard nearby) the eatery has maintain a steady stream of fans to
their place for years now. And it seems that they do not have any immediate
plans to neither expand nor move to a more comfortable shop like its other
rivals. Nevertheless, I do admit that I like their mee tauhu set very much, what with its authentic taste of gravy and
non-greasy fried mee (something that their bigger, well-known competition seems
to take lightly). Another top choice of food from their stall has got to be
their Nasi Kuning dish. As seen in the picture below, their Nasi Kuning can be
considered as unique due to its deeper yellowish colouring (I can assure you
that it doesn’t taste weird at all; in fact it somehow made the rice even more savoury).
Now if you combined that with an enticing non-spicy choice of Ayam or Ikan
Masak Merah and some green garnish on top, it’s no wonder that it’s a hit among
patrons (and one of my all time favourites as well).
