Nice yam rice

Yesterday I tried the yam rice at Southbay Food Court. I didn’t have high expectations, but I really liked it.

What were the good points?

👍🏼 Thick flavourful soup
👍🏼 At least two pieces each (more like three?) of intestine, stomach, and liver; not tough either
👍🏼 Cut chillies (green chilli padi in soy sauce) available upon demand
👍🏼 The default chilli sauce is good too (a first for me when ordering yam rice; usually I don’t take their chilli/black sauce)
👍🏼 No excessive thirst after eating (or should I say after drinking almost all the soup)


The price is RM 10 (8.50 for the soup, 1.50 for yam rice)

The only drawback is that the menu is only in Chinese characters, so I had some difficulty telling the foreign worker which one I wanted (I needed to make sure I got the one with the internal organs). The menu had pictures, but it wasn't like we could see what the soup contains from the picture... :P But then the owner (at least she seemed to be the owner) came back and took my order in Hokkien.

 

Update 22nd March 2025:

I went there again a few days ago. The menu is improved with English now! 

And I got a better photo:
