Food Review | New Soon Huat Bak Kut Teh

Hi... I'm back for another week with my food trail at Jalan Kayu. Came for the Bak Kut Teh and instead of having what they are famous for, we ordered Pig Liver Soup and Ginger Sesame Chicken as our main. Weirdos.

Anyway, a decent meal that anyone deserves on a Fri night.

Their Pig Liver Soup ($6) was flavourful with the pig liver not overly cooked. U can tell when it has that harden texture. Here, it tastes just right. A decent claypot of soup served hot but nothing to shout about.

As for the Ginger Sesame Chicken ($6), very bony chicken with rough texture. The braising however was not totally overwhelmed by the ginger. In fact, light ginger taste. Decent but I won't go for it again.

Other sides like Kai Lan ($6) and Braised Egg ($0.70) for 1 whole egg cut into half) were good esp the braised sauce from the latter which opens up your appetite. Never did we waste the sauce to mix with our rice. Also try their Honey Lemon Jelly drink ($2.20) that is refreshing.






They are at: 257 Jalan Kayu, Singapore 799485

No GST or Service Charge. Tipping is appreciated.
