M Yong Tofu

Flemington's build-your-own yong tau foo institution, ladling out curry laksa for over a decade.

Bustling, no-frills neighbourhood dining room on Racecourse Road, often packed to the rafters at lunch and dinner peaks with a loud, energetic hum; a counter-order ticket system keeps the family-run kitchen moving fast.

House-made stuffed tofu and fishcake counter where diners choose their own soup base, noodle and six toppings; BYO alcohol; teh tarik and other Malaysian drinks on the menu.

Consistently praised as authentic Malaysian-Chinese cooking with in-house-made stuffed tofu; one recent reviewer felt a change in ownership shifted the laksa's flavour profile, so consistency has varied slightly of late.

Generous portions at roughly $16-30 a head keep it firmly in everyday-value territory, though a couple of long-time regulars note prices have crept up in the past year.
