When it comes to Singapore’s favourite comfort foods, yong tau foo is one of those dishes that has remained a familiar part of our everyday food culture.

The concept is simple: pick the ingredients you like, choose your preferred noodles or rice, and have everything served either in a comforting bowl of soup or with sauces for a more substantial dry version.

Flyboy Yong Tau Foo is one of the places worth knowing if you’re a fan of this customisable local favourite.

Rather than being about elaborate presentation or complicated dining concepts, yong tau foo is all about having plenty of choices and putting together a meal that suits your own appetite.

If you’re looking for a casual and comforting yong tau foo meal in Singapore, Flyboy Yong Tau Foo is one to add to your local food list.

What Should You Order at Flyboy Yong Tau Foo?

🥢 Signature Yong Tau Foo

Naturally, the Signature Yong Tau Foo is where most first-time visitors should start.

Priced at S$11.50, the set comes with a generous mix of traditional yong tau foo ingredients including tau kwa, bittergourd, eggplant, meatball, tau pok, chilli, fishball and beancurd skin.

You can also upgrade the filling to salted fish for an additional S$1.

The combination gives you a good introduction to what Flyboy is about — familiar yong tau foo ingredients with a stronger Hakka-inspired identity.

You can also choose to upgrade the accompanying carbohydrate to bee hoon, braised pork fried bee hoon or dry noodles depending on the set and your preference.

🍠 Hakka Abacus Seeds

If there’s one dish outside of yong tau foo that deserves special attention, it’s the Hakka Abacus Seeds.

Priced from S$6.80 for a small portion, this traditional Hakka dish is made using yam, flour, mushrooms, scallions, dried shrimp and fried cuttlefish strips, finished with soy sauce.

Abacus Seeds isn’t something you’ll find on every Singapore restaurant menu, which makes it one of the more interesting reasons to visit Flyboy.

The restaurant has also highlighted it as one of its bestsellers, while its story and media coverage have drawn attention to the dish as part of its effort to preserve traditional Hakka food.

If you’re dining with a few people, this is one I’d recommend adding to the table for sharing.

🍛 Nanyang-Style Curry Chicken

Yong tau foo isn’t the only comfort food on the menu.

Flyboy also serves a Nanyang-Styled Curry Chicken Set with rice or bread, priced at S$9.50.

There’s also a Curry Noodles option and Curry Chee Cheong Fun, giving curry lovers a few different ways to enjoy the dish.

This is particularly useful if you’re dining with someone who isn’t in the mood for yong tau foo. Instead of having to find another restaurant, there’s enough variety on the menu for everyone to find something familiar.

🍜 Fried Bee Hoon

Another comfort-food option is Braised Pork Fried Bee Hoon, which can also be selected as an upgrade with certain yong tau foo sets.

The restaurant itself describes fried bee hoon as one of its comforting classics, while its menu gives diners the option of pairing it with their yong tau foo.

It’s an interesting combination because the bee hoon isn’t simply an afterthought — the restaurant has incorporated it into several of its meal options.

🥟 Ngoh Hiang & Fried Snacks

If you’re dining with friends or family, don’t overlook the snack section.

Flyboy offers Ngoh Hiang, Fried Shrimp Wonton, Fried Beancurd Roll, Tau Ki, Stuffed Tau Pok and Fried Platter, making it easy to add a few items for sharing.

The Ngoh Hiang is particularly worth considering if you’re already ordering several dishes for the table.

It also gives you a nice contrast to the soup-based yong tau foo — crispy, savoury and made for sharing.

More Than Just Yong Tau Foo

This is probably the biggest takeaway from Flyboy.

If you only look at the restaurant’s name, it would be easy to assume that the entire menu revolves around yong tau foo.

It doesn’t.

There is a clear Hakka food angle, with Abacus Seeds and preserved vegetables with pork belly sitting alongside the yong tau foo. Then there is the Nanyang curry section, snacks, soups and even vegetarian dishes.

One person can have yong tau foo, another can order curry chicken, while the table can share Hakka dishes and snacks.

A Casual West-Side Food Stop

Flyboy is located inside NEWest Mall along West Coast Drive, giving it a distinctly neighbourhood setting.

The restaurant itself is casual, making it suitable for a quick lunch, family meal or relaxed dinner rather than a formal dining experience.

For those living around West Coast, Clementi, Dover and Ayer Rajah, it is conveniently located within the neighbourhood.

And if you’re coming from further away, it could also be paired with other food stops around the Clementi and West Coast area for a small West-side food trail.

Is Flyboy Yong Tau Foo Worth Visiting?

If you’re simply looking for a bowl of yong tau foo, there are plenty of options around Singapore.

But Flyboy is worth considering if you want more than that.

The handmade Hakka yong tau foo is the main draw, but the menu’s traditional Hakka dishes, Abacus Seeds, curry chicken, fried bee hoon and sharing snacks give the restaurant considerably more depth.

The Hakka Abacus Seeds in particular makes it more interesting than a standard yong tau foo stop, especially for diners who enjoy exploring traditional dishes that aren’t as commonly found on everyday menus.

It’s also a good option for groups because everyone doesn’t necessarily have to order the same type of food.

⭐ FoundInSG Tip

If you’re visiting Flyboy for the first time, don’t stop at the yong tau foo.

Start with the Signature Yong Tau Foo, then add one or two dishes to share — especially the Hakka Abacus Seeds and a crispy snack such as Ngoh Hiang.

If you’re visiting on a Friday or weekend, it’s also worth checking what specials are available, as the restaurant has featured dishes such as Abacus Seeds during these periods.

Most importantly, come with a little appetite. Flyboy is less about finding one signature dish and more about exploring a small selection of traditional Hakka and Singaporean comfort food under one roof.
