While the usual peppery ‘white’ bak kut teh we have here is pretty comforting, some days we just crave for the herbaceous ‘black’ bak kut teh that’s much more common across the border. But what if you don’t want to spend two hours queueing just to get through the customs to get to Malaysia?
Hidden in Bendemeer, Jia Bin Klang Bak Kut Teh is a lauded bak kut teh place serving up authentic bowls of hearty Malaysian-style bak kut teh as well as an array of other dishes that you’ll typically find at a bak kut teh place in Malaysia.
Whether you’re feeling for a soupy and potent herby bak kut teh or savoury and saucy dry version, they’ve got you covered with the soup bak kut teh (from S$8.80) and dry bak kut teh (from S$8.80) — both of which are so flavourful you’ll see many customers thoroughly enjoying their food, whichever they get.
Other than the signature bak kut tehs, they also have several other specialty dishes that aren’t very common in Singapore, but are really popular with the customers like the addictive Jia Bin Hua Diao Wine Chicken (from S$8.80) and generous Jia Bin Spicy Pork Belly (from S$8.80).
Of course, there’s also a substantial selection of other braised and flavourful goodies on the menu from chicken’s feet (S$5) to pig intestines and stomach (S$7.50) to go along with your meal.
Also, if you’re a real bak kut teh connoisseur (if not, time to take some notes!), you’ll know that you have to order these two essential sides for Klang bak kut teh for it to be a true blue experience — you tiao (S$2.50) and crispy beancurd (S$2.50) which will both soak up the delicious soup or ‘zhap’ if you opt for the dry version.
