This is place is pretty famous. I've visited it 4 times. Unfortunately, I was disappointed for each of those 4 times.The key thing in any BakKut Teh, is not the Teh nor is it the You Tiao, or even the soup, it is the Bak Kut itself. It must be juicy and tender. This is a basic criteria. Unfortunately, this was not so.On the first visit, it was tough and dry. I thought, maybe they had a bad day and overcooked the ribs.

The key thing in any BakKut Teh, is not the Teh nor is it the You Tiao, or even the soup, it is the Bak Kut itself. It must be juicy and tender. This is a basic criteria. Unfortunately, this was not so.
On the first visit, it was tough and dry. I thought, maybe they had a bad day and overcooked the ribs. I went back to it again a few weeks later. The Bak Kut was still tough and dry. I thought maybe, it is just was not my lucky day.
I gave it another chance. In fact, I gave it 4 chances, because it was so popular and famous. I never got a tender and juicy bak kut in any of my visits.:
So I'm forced to draw a conclusion that people go there for the tea, the soup, the mei chye, even the you tiao, but the bak kut, I can't believe people like tough and dry pork ribs. My 10 year old son says his jaw was tired from chewing the pork ribs. It really is tough. We had to go somewhere else for dinner after that place because my son refused to chew on that pork rib any longer.
I've no idea why this place is so popular.
