Bak Kut Teh!

BAK KUT TEH!!! Haven't had it in a long time and last Sunday, my father decided to take my whole family to try out the new Bak Kut Teh restaurant which opened not long ago at Seletar Mall.

The new restaurant which is part of a chain BKT restaurants around Singapore known as Song Fa Bak Kut Teh is apparently a brand that is almost as old as Singapore is, as a republic. The restaurant has quite a few other types of soups in their menu, but what we went there for was for the BKT so i didn't pay much attention to the other dishes. And there were noodles too! Shall try that the next time we go there.

There's the pork loin BKT and the pork ribs BKT, we ordered the pork ribs BKT since it's the normal BKT that we are used to. We ordered some sides as well to go with the soup!

Additional side to go with the BKT!! You Tiao

Before the BKT came after we ordered, the You Tiao came first and it tasted like any normal you tiao, but it would be nicer if it was heated a bit before being served, but since we're gonna dip it in BKT soup, i didn't complain that much. HAHAH.

Here's the main star!!

My first impression was, "What a small bowl of BKT for $7!" BUT we realised that there's refills, HAHA. Since there were four of us, four bowls of BKT soups in small bowls were served. And each had 3 pieces of pork ribs with soup. It would be great if they served it in a huge bowl, since it's for 4 people. And we wouldn't need to refill our soup bowls so many times. The overall taste wasn't that bad, but it wasn't spicy enough. Although it wasn't that spicy, the taste of herbs were very nice with the soup! For those who doesn't like the taste of strong herbs, it wasn't really that strong but was enough to taste it and make the soup nicer.

Pork Trotters!

One of the sides we ordered were a plate of Pork Trotters!! It was deboned, which was good since it would be troublesome to eat with the bones. HAHAH. The trotters wasn't bad as well, the meat was tender and easy to chew and the sauce was great! With the rice. HAHAH.

Here's the bowl of rice.
Since we get refills for the soup, one bowl of rice was enough to make us feel bloated. Really worth the money, it was less than 50 bucks, around 40+? And we would go there again, if it wasn't crowded all the time. HAHAH.
