The name of this eating place doesn't ring a bell instantly - I start thinking TKD or BLT...On a Sun morning before 11am, there aren't many food places open near China Sq Central. A search for a good brunch led me to this discovery (oh well, many discovered before me....BUT, they left out something I HIGHLY RECOMMEND in this review, better than the main BKT itself!) YOU TIAO!!! Hahaha! (I know, eyes will roll and glasses will fall...haha! ) But really, who would pay $2 for a bowl of youtiao? B

YOU TIAO!!! Hahaha! (I know, eyes will roll and glasses will fall...haha! ) But really, who would pay $2 for a bowl of youtiao? But then again, who would eat BKT w/o youtiao??? Hahaha! The youtiao is really awesome!! It's so crispy! Don't soak it in the soup! I repeat, don't soak it in the soup!!!! I can't think of how else to describe the youtiao, except to tell you readers I paid $4 for it (go figure out how I came to that! Haha!)!
Now, if it is not mentioned already, the Klang one is a dark version and you can't refill the soup, unlike the white Teochew version (I don't know what's the big deal anyway!) I did prefer the Klang one though, as it was a balance between herbal and pepper taste, and I'm a sucker for herbal taste (must have been born w a ginseng root in my mouth!). The serving looked small, but I figured that most people would accompany BKT with side dishes, so there you have the balance. We did so too with YOUTIAO (haha! Still excited abt it!), Braised Beancurd Skin and Braised Taupok/ Taukwa. The latter two were decent, only the taupok quantity was too little.
Pricewise, I'd say a little pricey for BKT, including its side dishes. But you've got to order BKT, so as to enjoy the YOUTIAO!!! Haha!
I definitely had a satisfying meal here, having drunk 3 bowls of BKT soup. Really, I can't never understand why tea accompanies BKT. One can quench one's thirst w e BKT soup!!! Don't waste stomach space on the unnecessary!
Total Cost:
Teochew BKT - $6.50
Klang BKT - $6.80
Braised Beancurd/ Braised Taupok/Taukwa - $2 each
Rice - $1
YOUTIAO!!! - $2 (Wat the heck! Juz get this ok? )
No service charge!!! Despite fast service!
My God! I just realised I didn't snap a photo of the YOUTIAO!!! Oh well, u guys know how it looks like!
