What makes a good bowl of Bak Kut Teh? A perfect balance of fats-to-meat ratio with the ribs boiled to juicy, soft and fall-off-the-bone tender. Served with robust and peppery pork rib soup made by simmering pork ribs with garlic cloves, as well as a special blend of white peppercorns. So shiok right 😋 You can find it at @ngahsio_bkt, NG AH SIO Bak Kut Teh. Best to be eaten with steamed white rice / Teochew-Style Braised Pig’s Trotter Rice accompanied with side dishes like You Tiao, Preserved Vegetables and MUST TRY Signature Teochew Braised Pig’s Trotter and Braised Big Intestine.

NG AH SIO Bak Kut Teh’s Signature Teochew Braised Pig’s Trotter is quite different from the rest. Usually I either get a bowl of fats or a bowl of lean meats, their Braised Pig’s Trotter has more balanced fat-to-meat-ratio as it uses only the front trotter of the pig.
.
Another signature, Braised Big Intestine is clean with no smell, absorbed with robust dark sauce that has a soft and tender texture.
.
This time, I also learnt to appreciate pairing Bak Kut Teh with a pot of Xiao Ye Gan tea. A blend that is specially crafted to complement and accentuate the Bak Kut Teh broth. The correct way is to sip a mouth of the broth, followed by a mouth of tea. The tea develops a distinct bitter sweet taste. Craving for this meal?
