Yong Bak Kut Teh 荣肉骨茶

Posted by CyberTron on May 25, 2009 11:30PM
Was shopping at Liang Court today, decided to pop by here to check out the bak kut teh, as my friend working nearby recommended this place.

As I was there around 6+, the place was pretty empty. However, I believe the place probably is crowded during at night or on weekends, as there's actually quite a number of tables laid out outside.

Ordered a bak kut teh, pig intestine, a bean curd skin. Total bill including rice and you tiao was $10.80. Price wise is pretty reasonable. For a start, the bak kut teh itself is different from what you typically find. It is neither the clear peppery soup based we are familiar with, or the herbal ones of klang style. The soup is dark in colored, but actually has a peppery taste. The peppery taste isn't very strong, and seems to have the soya sauce taste from the pig intestine as well. In fact, it tasted a bit like a diluted version of the gravvy from the pig intestine, with the addition of pepper? Can't say I really love this version though. The pork itself is those drier type as well. Not sure can request for ribs though (I preferred ribs actually). The pig intestine was not too bad, and the portion is quite a lot actually, though the bean curd skin portion was just so so. I believe they seem to use thicker version of the bean curd skin, which is quite tasty. The bean curd skin does not come with any chicken feet though.

Overall, the bak kut teh here is average. If I happen to be around the area, I might go there again, but probably not going there specially it.

    Is diagonally opposite Jogoya. Supposedly the quality is better than Jogoya. Price wise, if we convert currency, then Malaysia is cheaper. If we do not convert currency, then Singapore is cheaper. Generally, a japanese buffet in Siingapore is around SGD30+ range.

    I'm not sure exactly where the original Leong Kee moved to, but I believe the one at Sultan Gate is still there. I also saw one at junction of Jln Besar and Hindoo road. Just at the junction before beancurd city

    hi! The bak kut teh at this place is Klang style. If you refering to the peppery style Bak Kut Teh you typically find in Singapore, then this is not the place for you. For the peppery style one, the famous ones are probably ones are Balestier Road or the one at Tanjong Pagar complex. For me, I usually just go to Song Fa at Rochor which is decent for me, and more convenient as well.

    I don't remember if i'd ever come across cheap and nice seafood in KL...I suggest you to plan a trip to Sabah, that's really what I call heaven for seafood lovers. ;-)
