Back After 27 Years: Homemade Mala Pig Blood Soup + BONUS recipe

Since the deadly Nipah virus outbreak in 1999 and the sales ban of a long  27-year , this beloved ingredient, Pig Blood Curd (Blood Tofu) has finally made its official return to our grocery shelves in June 2026 after being approved by Singapore Food Agency. The elderly group of Singapore will definitely feel nostalgic. The moment I spotted it at the supermarket (after many attempts), memories came rushing back. From the first time I had in Hong Kong decade ago and subsequently in Taiwan too.  And immediately bought 4 packs in a row at Giant Supermarket to share with my folks. Now I knew exactly what I had to make for dinner: a fiery, deeply satisfying bowl of Mala Pig Blood Curd Soup . The best part about making this at home? You can customize it completely. Here is how we whipped up this comforting, nostalgic meal in our kitchen. CP Foods has made it possible The Ingredients: Note: The beauty of a homemade mala soup is flexibility!

Food Review | Tom Yum Kungfu

Apparently, I have shared the photos in FB but anyway, I just want to do a review of this wonderful little shop.

Tom Yum Kungfu is the name.  Well... I don't see anything related to kungfu in the shop.  But a simple Thai deco in this little shop.

I wonder if that Ah Beng is the boss... Anyway it doesn't matter.  Cos he is capable of setting up a shop.  Maybe there is shareholders too. 

Because I went there with 3 other colleagues, wondering around Boat Quay and then fate just brought us to this shop.  Never know the food is just that good.
We decided on having steamboat.  Ordered a $38 with the above just nice portion of food for 4 of us.  Food is nice.  U can choose between bbq and soup based.  All in one, I shd say.  But as for the meat, it can be better if cut thinner.  This is the feedback from my colleague. Wahahahah...

That's before and after. Hahahah... The smell is damn good.  Before we step in, we can smell it from outside. Yummy!

This chicken wing is nice.  Not so oily.  Recommend to all.  No regrets for this simple side dish.

Recommended by the shop owner.  I mean I see him sitting at the counter for that 3 hours.  Back to this.  Fried kang kong.  Don't be deceived by its look.  Hidden treasure beneath the kang kong.  We found prawns and fish fillet in Thai sauce, I think so.  I mean for the sauce.  Taste sweet.  Overall verdict, NICE!

We never had any of their specialty drinks but just hot green tea.  Diet okay?  At least after 3 hours, I don't feel so damn full.  Just nice.

I read up about this shop from forum too.  Lotsa thumbs up about their food.  So maybe next round, I bring my guy for dinner and also organise the gathering for Dearie group.

Eh... Actually this pic should be above all.  Cos we are just about to start.  Hahahahah... Anyway that's all for that night.
