My husband has been eating their bak kut teh since their Hill St Food Centre days so we are a tad biased. Theirs isnt the typical thick herbal style or the ultra peppery broth. Just light yet flavorsome soup that isnt oily. You can order the vegetables blanched in the meat broth. Nice traditional comfort food. If you look around Zion St Food Market on the weekend mornings, you'll find many families there, eating Ba Kut Teh and drinking the kungfu tea with a hot kettle boiling on every table! Plu
Plus they have very nice fresh fish in the mornings too. Nothing better than enjoying good food, sipping chinese tea and reading newspaper on a cool Sunday morning by the canal. This is the upstream of the Singapore River and is old school affordable and accessible waterfront dining for everyone! Sometimes you can even spot herons and other wildlife stopping in for a rest along the canal. The stall is right beside the waterfront so it offers a great view. The perfect food on a rainy morning especially in this humid and hot climate of ours! Speak teochew to the stall owners for extra friendly ga-gi-nang service ;) Do note that it can get pretty expensive if you start ordering the fish and other extra servings of kidney, intestines and other side dishes. My favourite is the mee sua, a must have for me!
This is really the perfect family Sunday Breakfast tradition and I can only hope it continues to be there so I can bring my children there in the future.
