The menu here is refreshingly novel and varied, with dishes that I have never seen elsewhere in singapore. The chicken soup covered with tofu skin is especially noteworthy, albeit a little on the salty side. Service is efficient.
A busy restaurant that sells the Chinese cuisine. Love the 游埠鸡子粿! It's crispy on the outside and flavourful in the inside with juicy minced meat and chive with eggs.
With the recent news about pig blood being allowed for sale, Hakka Yu incorporated it into their menu. I remembered my first taste overseas and was never a fan, as the flavour was too strong, gamey, and metallic. Since then, I had avoided it until now. Skeptical, I tried again and was surprised. This dish tasted more like tofu, with the distinct flavour mild and easy to slurp. Still, it can be a bold dish for many to try.
This was nice. Soft, melty fish covered in light crisp batter, drizzled with sweet and spicy sauce. The bite was smooth, and the sauce enhanced the flavour.
Very aromatic abacus seeds, well coated, with good flavour and chewy texture. Can order!
Soft, tender, juicy pork ribs with sweetness from the pumpkin.
Tender meat with savoury sauce. Nothing much to comment, more of a filler dish for me.
Steamed very well, with flavour and texture so soft they almost disintegrated in the mouth. The bones separated easily, and the taste was rich, beany, savoury, and slightly spicy, penetrating through the entire piece.
The clams were small and the luffa soft rather than crunchy tender. Can skip this dish.
Trying out Hakka Yu after some time, which is famous for its Salt Baked Chicken. I thought the crowd might have died down a little, but nope, not even close, the queue was still long. These are the moments I cherish having made an advance reservation to beat the crowd.

To be honest, it looked pretty good. The colour, the hue, the glittering yellowish skin was a sight to behold and raised high expectations. The aroma was subtly fragrant, but the taste was average. The meat was tender and the skin smooth, yet the flavour did not cling or absorb well. It was also rather dry and not juicy enough, probably because the heated pot evaporated the juices. I also wished the chicken feet and other bony parts were softer and melt‑in‑the‑mouth, as the current texture was too firm to chew.
