Located in the bustling heart of Causeway Bay at 55 Jardine's Bazaar, Yan Wo Dou Bun Chong is a charming tofu restaurant that beautifully preserves the essence of traditional Hong Kong bean curd craftsmanship.

For those seeking something savory, the pan-fried stuffed bean curd with fish paste is a signature staple. While some might find it slightly oily or subtle in flavor, it maintains that nostalgic, traditional taste that reflects the restaurant’s longstanding heritage.

Beyond tofu, the menu extends to other comforting dishes like fried noodles that round out the meal effortlessly.

This was a historical bean curd factory which also provided din in area. The new shop was very near the old shop. More choices were included in the menu. Lunch sets and dinner sets were offered. Bean was the main ingredient. Soy milk, tofu puddings of different mixes were tasty. Pan-fried stuffed bean curd was a bit oily, but the traditional taste still existed. Order could be specified as more crispy. They were prepared continuously, so they were ready to serve anytime. Boiled bean curd was another choice, with a less oily feeling and soft. The price was average, and cash was required for payment.

It was a cool afternoon. We ordered the pan fried tough with fish paste. I found it rather bland, but my wife liked it a lot. I really liked the black sesame soya bean dessert, while she super enjoyed the ginger soya bean dessert. Highly recommended place!

Their tofu (dou fu fah) is really fresh and yummy! Either hot or cold, it tastes homemade and not like other places that just steam it when you order it

Yum yum, great deal, lots of flavours. Tried black sesame soya bean milk, pan-fried tofu with fish paste, fried noodles, and black sesame soya bean dessert

It is a very typical tofu restaurant, but they call it a "factory" to signify that they specialize in all kinds of tofu dishes, including soy milk drinks and tofu pudding. These two can be served either cold or hot. They also offer pan-fried tofu topped with a bit of fish meat (though the meat portion seems to be getting smaller and smaller). Additionally, there are other typical dishes you can find in similar restaurants. The tofu pudding with ginger flavor is pretty good. The pan-fried tofu is quite tasty, too. Price-wise, it is very typical for Hong Kong and not inexpensive at all. I recommend this restaurant!

Delicious local tofu restaurant! The deep fried tofu seasoned with soy sauce was delicious. It was like atsuage in Japan. I’ve had tastier and more fresh soy milk. The fish congee was very nice. The umami flavors and the light milky taste and texture was such a nice combination. I went with my toddler and baby but next time I’ll go alone so I can enjoy the desserts! Only locals but the staff all spoke English. The was a restroom inside.
