Yen Ta Fo Convent

Many locals are privy to this famous yen ta fo shophouse located on Convent road right across BNH hospital. But not too many know that the owners of Yen Ta Fo Convent are distantly related to the founders of Yen ta fo Wat Khaek (said to be the original yen ta fostreet stall in the city). When it was founded in 1977, the brains behind Yen Ta Fo Convent shared the same recipe with Yentafo Wat Khaek, but later on developed their own signature red sauce made from tomatoes and sweet potatoes. Its popularity spreads by word of mouth, turning Yen Ta Fo Convent into one of the hottest lunch spots on Silom.
