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!

Apart from Rice ($1), diners can opt for Mee Sua to pair with the bak kut teh! The portion comes quite substantial and they offer soup refills for it too.

If you prefer convenience, Ya Hua offers the option of sliced pork instead of the boned ones. Pretty tender pieces here! They also offer Sliced Fish Soup ($9).

A simple dish done well, the steamed egg was done smooth and silky as its name! It was seasoned with light soy sauce.

Just had an ultra comforting dinner in the neighbourhood at Ya Hua Bak Kut Teh. It recently relocated to 7th Mile Coffeeshop at Toh Yi Drive, while its previous space was across the road alongside Micasa and Flagwhite Cafe.

I like that their Teochew-style clear BKT gives substantial heat but is also not done overly peppery. The soup comes with every option you can think of - Prime Cut Rib, Sliced Pork (which are what we had), Liver & Kidney, Intestine & Stomach, Sliced Fish, etc. & yes, they come around for fresh refills of the broth!

Sides you must try are their freshly fried crunchy You Tiao and Chilled Cucumber Salad. We wiped the latter quickly cause it was super refreshing, a little spicy and not oily!

Another solid meal option at one of my favourite food centres around, Holland Drive!

Yap Kee is owned by my friend’s family, and they serve up Malaysian-style wanton mee. The springy egg noodles are done very qq and free from any alkaline taste. The well-marinated homemade dumplings were my FAV - generously meaty and fresh with a crunch from water chestnuts. Would be a great addition to steamboats!

Ordered this from a new stall at Beauty World Food Centre, called 大马粿条汤. We had the mee tai mak as they were sold out of kway teow. Thought it was promising since they only sell this one dish, but it was unfortunately very disappointing ☹️ Broth was bland, the meats were pretty tough, and the fishballs and meatball were average too. Still on our search for good kway teow soups here!

Back at one of my best spots to get handmade fishballs and meatballs. Ru Ji Kitchen has been a family favourite for a long time now - we always get their fresh fishballs and meatballs for steamboats at home! Their default bowl of noodles come with just the fish cakes and fishballs, but I highly recommend to top up a dollar for the meaty meatballs which are so satisfying.

PS. Just saw that they’ve just opened a new outlet at Maxwell Food Center too!

Back for mee pok - we used to have this almost weekly, when they still had an outlet in Bugis. Was so happy to see the some uncle today at the Simpang Bedok branch!

Our mee pok was more saucy than we remember, but we did still enjoy the springy noodles. Soup was flavourful as usual. Can’t say that it’s the best around, but it’s always a comforting bowl for us.

At Mei Ling Market & Food Centre for breakfast and saw that they have 2 popular fishball noodles stalls. Went with Xin Lu Teochew Fishball Noodle this time round - it’s the one with the white sign board next to the escalator.

Queue moved pretty quickly, and aunty was very friendly! Can definitely understand why they are so popular, portions of both the noodles and the fishballs makes it very value. Flavour wise though, thought it was just average - we found the mee pok slightly doughy, and I’m personally not a fan of the saucy ketchup-based chilli mix.

Haven’t been to this area before and wasn’t sure what’s good, so I joined in the most popular looking queue 😂 They have both soup and dry options. I wanted something comforting, so I went for the soup! I’m not as familiar with the popular soup bak chor mee in Bedok, so I can’t really compare them. Noodles were nicely springy and I liked that the springiness lasted through the bowl. The toppings of minced meat and meatballs were decent, while the dumplings were the highlight. I wasn’t as big a fan of the soup though, thought it could be just a bit better seasoned and more fragrant.

Was attracted by this stall, not only because there was a pretty long queue, but also because they had these huge earthen pots to cook their herbal soups! They have 30 over types of soups to choose from, and all of them come with a cup of ginseng water to pair.

Enjoyed the Salted Vegetable Duck Soup, it had just the right balance of saltiness and came with lots of soft salted vegetables. Duck meat was not bad in texture as well, though it can be a touch more tender. Will be back to try the Herbal Chicken Soup which seemed super popular.
