Food to eat in "Mantin." 


Due to its demographic, Mantin was famous for traditional Hakka food.

If you want to find the "signature" Mantin food, you got to go Old Mantin. Old Mantin prepares and serves traditional Chinese rice pudding. 

If you are fan for stuff tofu (Yong Tofu, 酿豆腐), Old Mantin serves the most authentic Hakka Yong Tau Fu there. Usually you will see a lot of flour in the stuff, but here, it is real meat!

The most famous Yong Tau Foo vendor has lost its glory after the demolition of the old theater, which was next to its original shop. The vendor now operates at the Mantin Hawker Center which is located on the main street.


Favorite Dish: Chinese Rice Pudding - Xian Cha Guo, or Woon Chai Kou (碗仔糕), Put Chai Kou (缽仔糕), Chwee Kuey (水粿),or Chai Tao Kuey (菜頭粿). Rice pudding was originally a dessert found in the regions of Guangdong and Xiamen. It was brought to Malay Peninsular when the Southern Chinese migrated here. As the time went by, many traditional desserts were not passed down and disappeared along the way.

Old Mantin inherits the authentic rice pudding recipe and method of preparation. It gives us the opportunity to enjoy this wonderful traditional dessert.
