Looking for Bak Kut Teh places?

We had dinner at eight, but still a lot of customers. Back Kut Keh is very delicious, but the essence is soup. It could be added to unlimited. Totally $18 per pax, reasonable price!

BKT served in claypot and piping hot herbal broth. I ordered the claypot bak kut teh with enoki and rice set that came with pork ribs, lettuce, button mushrooms, tau pok and enoki cooked and served in claypot. The pork ribs were tender and fall off the bone easily. I find the herbal flavour of broth too subtle and light for my taste buds and definitely not for those who are used to the strong herbal flavoured broth. The broth is also not overly salty which may be a hit for the folks who prefer something clean and light.

The pig trotters were well-braised and flavourful. The meat was so tender that it fell apart easily using chopsticks. I also add on a portion of tau kee (beancurd skin) soaked in a salty braising liquid that makes it the perfect combination with white rice.

Claypot BKT + Enoki + Rice 》$7.70
Braised Pig Trotter 》$5
Tau Kee 》$1.20

This bak kut teh stall opens very early in the day from 7:30am till evening, selling peppery style of bak kut teh here.

You can choose from either the normal serving with bowl, or go with the claypot serving. The claypot serving will persevere the hot soup longer than normal bowl.

The smallest size of claypot serving already comes with lots of meats, and it is really peppery as you would find all the peppers at the bottom.

Oh this packed such a good punch! The sambal here was really solid, spicy with a nice hae bi hiam savouriness in it. The brinjal was soft and nice, though the skin was cooked til a bit too hard.

Had this a pretty long time ago, and somehow I don’t remember it being as good as it was now. The Bak Kut Teh here was on the peppery side - just as how I liked it. For the small size, there was a good portion of pork ribs in it, with the meat being relatively tender (I’ve had way tougher ones elsewhere🫠). A good fix if you’re craving comfort food that is peppery, but I’ve got to admit that it’s one of the slightly pricier ones and there might be queue even after peak dinner hours!

First time at Sin Heng Claypot Bak Koot Teh, even though I have walked down Joo Chiat Road so many times for my entire life!

Saw some crowd at this food place so we decided to give it a go!

What we ordered:
-Bak Kut Teh (medium for $15)
-White Rice ($1): We wanted yam rice initially, but it was already sold out
-You Tiao ($2.50)
-Lime withe Prune Drink ($2)

The bak kut teh soup was a dark brown colour, however the tastes is not the herbal kind, but more of the pepperish kind, quite similar to songfa bkt i must say! The soups here are also refillable, and they give so much at one go (so much more than song fa)! Enjoyed the meal here!

Female staff was utterly rude. Pulled the table apart to prevent us using two tables (pre-arranged) even though the entire restaurant was literally empty and filled with empty seats. Meat and you tiao was cold and it is nothing compared to its other outlets. I would not recommend eating this

𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐜𝐮𝐭 𝐫𝐢𝐛 ($14.50) - Signature option featuring generously-sized ribs and tender meat. Was also impressed by the 𝐬𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐝 𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐤 ($9) which had an enjoyable soft chew.

𝐒𝐢𝐥𝐤𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐞𝐠𝐠𝐬 ($6.50) - Unassumingly simple but well-executed to a silky smooth finish and allowing the natural eggy flavour to shine through.

𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐯𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐬 ($4) - Classic salty-tangy mix that was a refreshing balance to the peppery soup.

𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐜𝐮𝐜𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐝 ($4) - Crunchy cucumbers tossed in a flavourful spicy sauce.

𝐓𝐚𝐮 𝐤𝐞𝐞 ($4) - Juicy beancurd skin in a herbal broth.

Pair with rice ($1) or slurp worthy mee sua ($2.80). Highly recommend the 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐨 ($3) that’s freshly fried to enjoyable crispness and absorbs the broth well for juicy and flavourful bite.

This is one of the white pepper versions or we can call it the Teochew version of BKT. They offer steamed fish as well and the steamed fish is pretty fresh you can choose what you like here. You have a big group you really need to book and reserve a seat on peak hours on weekends and public holidays or you will end up waiting a VERY VERY LONG TIME as they have regulars that have extended family meals there. Regulars also have their own teas that they keep there. Some of these teas are rather expensive

I actually thought the Prime Rib could be more tender, but otherwise I very much enjoyed the broth. It has a good heat without being too peppery.

There are many other options to go for apart from the Prime Cut Rib, such as Sliced Pork, Liver & Kidney, Intestine & Stomach, Sliced Fish, etc. The friendly staff come around for fresh refills of the broth!
