For most people, the name Tangkak means nothing to you. But for fans of local food, this small town has one important advantage:
it is the birthplace of Tangkak beef. This delicious noodle dish, available in both dry and soup forms, has delighted diners over the years.
But now, Klang Valley diners no longer need to travel a long way down south to eat beef, as the eponymous Tangkak Beef Noodle House (TBNH) has opened its new outlet in Berjaya here at Times Square. This popular meat dish has a rich history that dates back to 1976. Local entrepreneur Au Ah Keong opened a small restaurant near the bus stop in Tangkak, based on a secret family recipe: the dish is taste prepared by his grandfather. The store was successful and expanded into the famous Kuang Fei restaurant, which is still in business. This also led to franchising, which focused on supermarket expansion. Their Berjaya Times Square location is their second halal outlet. When we launched our first halal outlet, Tangkak Beef Noodle House at Tropicana Gardens Mall last year, we saw a very encouraging response from customers,” Au Ai Leen, CEO of Halal and Son the woman who founded the company. Hence, the decision to open a second halal store.
The other two locations – both non-halal – are in Kuchai Lama and Puchong Bandar Puteri. Au said the restaurant has preserved his father’s beloved secret recipes, although customers may experience slight variations depending on where they eat. To enhance the taste of the customers, they have introduced other ingredients like cilantro and garlic in their preparation. “We carefully source our ingredients to ensure the highest quality standards are met. Our beef is primarily Black Angus beef and Australian Hereford beef, from cows that have been bred and raised to to the highest animal welfare standards,” said Au. Their latest launch is a brightly lit space with great entertainment and friendly staff. Most brown soaps are simple and elegant while evoking a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

FMT Lifestyle’s recommendation is the All Mix soup, the brand’s signature dish. Its combination of different flavors and textures, of aromatic herbs and spices of its dishes make everyone’s taste buds happy.
Of course, there is more to this place than just beef: their menu also has a variety of other options. One of the highlights is the Angus Beef Don, the brand’s take on beef and Japanese rice dishes, such as gyudon.
