[SG EATS] YI PIN BAK KUT TEH – ANG MO KIO NEIGHBOURHOOD YOUR ALTERNATIVE CHOICE FOR HERBAL-STYLE SOUP BASE

Whenever raining weather, the comfort food that I will think of is Bak Kut Teh. I was introduced to Yi Pin Bak Kut Teh located at Blk 530 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10. This neighbourhood restaurant started operating since March 2016 this year is offering both herbal and pepper version. Both version of soup base are actually from one of the co-owner’s family recipe. Thus, the taste of the soup base is different from the usual ones I tried before.

I was here to check out the two soup base versions and a-la carte dishes available at Yi Pin Bak Kut Teh. The dishes and prices are stated in the menu so diners can gauge the price of the meal at one glance.

Pepper-style Bak Kut Teh

It comes with a standard size serving and served with claypot. The peppery soup base has a tint of wolfberries sweetness. Unlike most peppery soup base in Singapore, the soup base here is less peppery and acquired taste. It was quite addictive and flavourful for our preference.

Herbal Style Bak Kut Teh

Malaysian-style herbal soup base was served in lighter coloured and it was boiled with herbs such as yu zhu, danggui to name a few overnight. Thus, this explains the strong taste flavour of the soup base. Although the herbal taste was not strong like my favourite one back in Johor Bahru, the herbal kick is there. The herbal-style soup base here has a kind of family comfort taste which you will want to come back for it again.
