The menu is designed by the main concept of Pork design ! which related to their Signature of pork related dishes. Don't be SHIOK with A-ONE Pork menu, as on top of the typical local Bak Kut Teh, they also serve local delicacy such as Yong Tau Foo, Braised Platter and Assorted Vegetables.
Let's start with the Claypot Porridge, followed by the soup, braised dishes, and so on..Minced Meat with Meat Ball Porride ($9.90 )
Teochew people knowns for their dishes of Teochew Porridge. It is the same as what the porridge being served at A-One : Well Known Teochew Porridge. The poridge was really great and peppery ! Literally melts in my mouth.
It is a watery porridge which is a bit of dry concept. The main delightful of its porridge is because they are using a Bak Kut Teh stock to prepare its delicacy. Cooking time takes about 45 mins thru a high pressure cooker with a mix of white pepper.
Pork Ribs Porridge ( $10.90)
Cooking concept is the same as Minced Meat Porridge. It is using white pearl rice and bak kut teh stock with a good combination of pepper, garlic, and spices. So, what makes its porridge different from the above is : it is more watery based porridge beside the pork ribs ingredients. Though the ribs was quite tender and fresh but i still prefer a dry based porridge so that i could taste the delicacy of porridge.
A-One Claypot Porridge was really SHIOK when the soup is still hot and the peperry stock is definitely melts your delight.Pork Ribs Soup ($10.90)
After the porridge, now it is time for Bak Kut Teh ! Well the soup is same as porridge, it is peppery ! But don't be mixed up with Bak Kut Teh stock that served in porridge, This dishes is cooked in complex broth of herbal and spices, with a pleasant thick dark brown broth color as this is what tradition delicay Bak Kut Teh was introduced. The meat is supposed to be tender, but it is not. It would be a good complement dishes, if the pork ribs tender. Well ! The best time to eat Bak Kut Teh is always to have You Tiao (fried dough ) there !
Pig's Organ Soup ($9.90)
Using a Bak Kut Teh Peppery soup, same as pork ribs soup it needs 3 hours to done the broth. In the early morning like 6 am / 7 am they already prepare to cook the broth to its A-One standard. The fire was lighted on spot on the table. Doesn't it looks like steamboat feast ?? LOL. It is a good serving concept quality to preserve the food hot. The porky broth comes with liver, pig intestines, and pork slices. I don't eat liver so i am sorry to exclude out liver. Pig intestines are the most liked ! It is tender and meaty to eat.
Not forgetting about drink ! Assorted Fruit & Flower Tea ($7.90 )Thank You A-One Bak Kut Teh to give a surprise drink ! A wonderful floral fragrance of non sugar tea. The dried fruits and flowers are brewed into the pot, giving a sweet taste of tea though it is sugarless. Recommended to its special drink it. The tea has Chinese Hawthorn tea, which has slight sourich touch that very good for digestion.
Braised Platter ( $ 14.90 )
Perfect braised platter of a tender bite. These dishes consist of pork, beancurd skin, beancurd puff, egg, and peanuts which have been simmered in a dark light soya sauce throughout a herbs ingredients.
Ampang Yong Tau Foo
It comes with 3 size : Small ( $9.90 ) ; Medium ($14.90 ) ; Big ($18.90)
Do you know what is Ampang ? You have visited Malaysia, KL guess you know Ampang is one of the LRT station. I have never tried any of the Ampang taste before.
But so far, Its Homemade Ampang sauce is well served with the dishes yong tau foo dishes - beancurd skin, fried wanton, crispy tau foo, brinjal, tau pok, lady’s finger, bitter ground and tonnes of kangkong at the bottom drenched in Ampang gravy. Other than, Porridge and Bat Kut Teh, it is one of the dishes that people say "Should try the Ampang Yong Tau Foo.
Dry Bak Kut Teh Chicken Cubes ($12.90)
As far as the concern of Bak Ku Teh all are from Pork, now let's change to Chicken. A-One offered a Tender Chicken Bak Kut Teh Cubes which is still maintained the consistency of using Bak Kut Teh stock. Premium stock that being cooked together with dark soya sauce, dry chili and slices of cuttlefish makes the sweet, mild spicy gravy simmered into the dishes. They could improve on its gravy to make it more characteristics as i found that it is a bit too watery. As usually if the gravy is creamer would taste nicer
Assorted Vegetables in Sambal Sauce ( $10.90)
The assortment of greens - lady's fnger, long bean, egg plant, sweet pea, big ikan bilis are stirred with fried mince meat and sambal sauce. Saying that it is cooked with a sambal sauce which supposed to be oh well the fragrant ! but i didn't really taste the sambal sauce. It is too light and not spicy.
