The Taman Selera Food Court in
Jalan Othman, located in old town Petaling Jaya has stood the test of time with
a history that spans more than 3 decades, and it is still considered one of the
best hawker centres around town, serving some of the best authentic hawker food
available. One of the stalls responsible for this is stall No.35, known to most
regulars here as Gerai Seong Kee. The stall is still very much a family run
operation, getting their start with the parents selling yong tau foo. Now that
they have retired, the children took over the stall, and are doing so with the
help of their own kids.
Although the menu might not be
the most extensive, the stall is still well known for serving up authentic
Hakka specialties such as Hakka yong tau foo, curry fish head (or fish head curry to some of us), assam fish, Hakka stew fried pork, pork leg in sweet
vinegar, fried chicken, Hakka abacus beads, and a number of others. The yong
tau foo is regularly praised by the loyal customers here. One of the things
that makes this serving of yong tau foo stand out is the fact that it is made
on the spot upon ordering. Some of the yong yau foo varieties include chilli,
ladies’ finger, brinjal, bitter gourd, stuffed tofu, and a few others.
So if you’re looking to enjoy
some authentic Hakka food around old town Petaling Jaya, Gerai Seong Kee in the
Taman Selera Food Court would be one of the prime choices.
