Bak Kut Teh is a Hokkien dialect, translated as “meat bone tea”. The meat used usually is pork which get simmered in a broth of herbs and spices. Very popular among Malaysia and Singaporean, however there are a little different in both the taste and color of the soup base. In Singapore, when you order Bah Kut Teh you usually get the clear soup base which has plenty of pepper taste, that is called the Teochew style. The Malaysia style has a darker soup base and stronger herbal taste. Being a Malaysian born, I still recall the funny moment when I ordered my first Bah kut teh in Singapore. I questioned the owner twice whether she gave me the correct order as the soup is very clear?<\/p>\n

Let’s explore Bah Kut Teh “Teochew style” in Singapore. This is my personal ranking of Bak Kut Teh.<\/p>\n

The interesting part of Ng Ah Sio Bak Kut Teh is the owner turned down famous HK politician Mr Donald Tsang, simply because Mr Tsang did not choose the right time to come. (Nah, not open for you Mr Tsang, sorry!\u00a0 Come back during operating hours)<\/strong>. The owner refused to open for the politician and make headline news\u00a0 This make me even more curious to find out Ng Ah Sio Bak Kut Teh.<\/p>\n
