Recently, Belinda told me that the Yong Tau Foo that I love eating in The Wine Company was bought every morning from an “almost half a century-old” company in Telok Blangah. I was so surprised as in this day-and-age, it is almost impossible to find food that is handmade from scratch!
Dan discovered Ah Boon Handmade Fishcake many years ago and he is adamant that the Yong Tau Foo must be purchased every morning for our restaurant. On hearing this tale, I google-d Ah Boon Handmade Fishcake and found that they are not only almost 50 years old (operating in Telok Blangah Crescent Market since 1975) but it is operated by the grandson (3rd generation). It is truly a legacy!
This is what is amazing about Singapore... we embrace the new (a Singapore MedTech company that uses 4-D printing to create re-usable casts so that the fractured bone can heal faster) and yet we cherish the “lost art” of handmade items.
This crossed my mind as I watched those loud F1 racers zoom by in a flash last weekend! And yes, I raised a glass of bubbly to Singapore… CHEERS!
Bringing you a legacy of "made-by-hand"!
In this day and age, it is hard to find food that is not factory-made. Several years ago, Dan discovered a simple stall in Telok Blangah that made fish ball and yong tau foo by hand from scratch!
The Yong Tau Foo in The Wine Company is my favourite dish! It is simple and there are more lovely items in our Food Menu just for you.
I AM! I am a not an adventurous wine drinker... each time I select a wine at The Wine Company, it will be a wine that I have tasted before.
Now with the latest promo wines, each time I select a wine to go with my favourite Yong Tau Foo dish, I ask the staff what wines are on promo and I dare to try another blend or wine from another country.
Check out the wines at reduced price yourself. Ask our friendly crew which wines are on promo to be consumed in-house!
... that is a big hole in your pocket! You will love our sparkling wines at affordable prices!
Whether celebrating a special occasion or simply treating yourself, our Scones and Tea and Bubbly Unlimited is the perfect way to create lasting memories.
The best (and fastest) way to ensure you get a table at The Wine Company is via our online booking.
