hello, we're dáo

the story behind your favourite bowl.

We're three siblings who grew up on our family's tau fu fah — and thought everyone deserved a nicer place to enjoy it. So in 2018 we opened a little shop in SS15, Subang Jaya, and dáo was born.

a recipe four generations old.

Every bowl of dáo fu fah starts from a family recipe that has been passed down, perfected and fussed over for four generations. Here's the short version.

1908–1990

grandpa's recipe

The recipe behind our tau fu fah traces back to the late Mr. Lau Cheong (1908–1990). Four generations on, we still make it his way — patiently, daily, from scratch.

Three siblings opened the first dáo in SS15, Subang Jaya. The idea was simple: tau fu fah this good deserved a proper place to sit down, slow down and share it.
