Quite disappointed to try the food after reading so much good reviews!

We ordered their sliced pork bowl and 1 bowl of their big intestines. Together with the sides dishes - braided peanuts, Mui chai and fried youtiao. 

Their peppery soup was rather tasteless and tho you can taste the pepper, that's pretty much about it. The sliced pork was a little too fatty for my liking as half the slice will be the fats! 

The intestines was a little porky in the taste but I guess some folks like that. 

The side dishes were the decent ones that I have no complains about. 

All the above with 2 bowls of rice came up to $20 which I thought was a tad expensive as the slices of pork in the bowl was quite little. 

Safe to say I'm not coming back. 😞

Disappointing. Standards have dropped tremendously. The lukewarm bak kut soup ($7/pax) was the ominous sign of a meal that eventually went downhill. The pork ribs, regardless of which country it came from, was not consistently cooked. It was the first time I encountered so much difficulties tearing off the meat from the bones.

When cold lettuces and cold pig liver/kidney slices are thrown into a broth that is not hot enough, the final outcome of the Pig Liver & Kidney Soup ($5) was a mishap that stink of blood. Besides Bak Kut Teh, this place also sells some zi char dishes like the miserable plate of Sambal Potato Leaves ($7) full of withered greens. Other side dishes include braised beancurd skin ($3), braised peanuts ($2) and braised pig skin ($2) but none raised above the bar. Perhaps the Mee Sua Soup ($2) and the Fried Prawn Roll ($10) were the only pillars we could lean on.

Ironically, isn't this place known for its Bak Kut Teh in the first place?

Rong Cheng uses fresh pork than frozen pork for the bak kut, fresh pork is usually better from both taste and texture, it has an impact to the quality of the broth as well, the essence from the fresh pork tends to integrate into the broth while cooking and likewise fresh pork is easier to absorb the essence from the broth to make the meat luscious. The Bak Kut from Rong Cheng was more tender and easier to chew; the meat can be removed from the bone rather easy, a process only achievable from the

Rong Cheng uses fresh pork than frozen pork for the bak kut, fresh pork is usually better from both taste and texture, it has an impact to the quality of the broth as well, the essence from the fresh pork tends to integrate into the broth while cooking and likewise fresh pork is easier to absorb the essence from the broth to make the meat luscious. The Bak Kut from Rong Cheng was more tender and easier to chew; the meat can be removed from the bone rather easy, a process only achievable from the well controlled of timing and fire power. Overall, Rong Cheng Bak Kut Teh reminds us the resemblance of Song Fa Bak Kut Teh, both apparently created to meet the younger generation taste.

Braised Pig Trotter
We asked for the braised pig trotter to have more lean meat so not to feel too guilty consciously. The trotter was ordinary in taste and texture; we found the trotter lacking the right seasoning and that can’t make the dish shine. So far, we love the pig trotter from Joo Siah Bak Kut Teh which was very well seasoned and excellent in the flavour and taste.

This Bak Kuk Teh is good. One can see many regulars eating at this place, a testament to how good it is. The pork meat itself was very tender and the broth very delicious. Many bak kut teh places have pork meat that does not come off the bones easily but here, the meat itself simply slides off the bone, evidence of a well-braised and well-boiled bak kut teh soup. I also like the sweet peanuts.

Serving mainly the office crowd here at Midview City, Rong Cheng is a bigger than average stall with high ceiling, they offer the white pepper soup version of BKT costing minimum $6 a bowl.

1hr stay. I'm not a big fan of that soup but was glad to know they have other lunch options as well. Apparently they hv spin off to include a ci char section as well. I ordered the gong bao chicken rice (dried chilli) at $5, pretty reasonable pricing i would say. The dish surprisingly turned out well, even reminding the same kind of sauce as frog leg porridge. Filling up the plate half with the dish and half of it with the plain rice, its cooked with plenty of sauce to go along with the rice. Great eat as a quick lunch. Anyway i also saw at the cashier counter that they sell steam fish also and it seems to be popular as 2 of the 5 fish choices were sold out.

Their pig's trotter is an usual favourite. I was there to take away and to have it for dinner later. I always requested for the part from the hind leg for a less fatty portion. I can tell by tasting it that they braised the pig's trotter in a good quality dark soya sauce. The texture of the pig's trotter was soft enough but still keep the meat intact. The gravy itself is good to go with plain rice.
