Bak Kut Teh


Darling friend suggested him to try out a Bak Kut Teh shop located near Bandar Puteri Puchong, Puchong. This shop is located near the industrial area and is quiet new.. Luckily with the help and direction of his friend, we manage to get that place quiet easy.. This shop is famous for its dry version of BKT..

Upon walking into the restaurant, you will see many kettles placed strategically around the tables. These kettles are boiling water and are meant for customers to brew their chinese tea. Take a seat and the waiter will bring to you a basketful of tea leaves in bags for you to choose from. I am not really a “chinese tea” expert, so i just pick Jasmine tea (RM3). There are a few small chinese tea cups with one equally small tea pot for you to brew your tea. Apparently, I was supposed to first put the tea leavs in the pot, pour boiling water into the pot, leave it for a minute and pour the contents into the tea cups. Not to drink, but to rinse the cups as well as to sort of “wash the leaves”. You only drink the second brew onwards.

The meal wouldn't be perfect without this two items according to darling...


For the 2 of us, we ordered a portion of dried bak kut teh, stewed pork, a plate of yau mak and some yau char kuai .
Dry Version of BKT- Quiet good and lots of meat too.. The sauce is thick and yummy.. If they add more fried shallots in it then it would be wonderful... (RM12)



Stewed Pork- This is bad... Is fat and the sauce doesn't taste good two.. (RM15)

Service was very good in this place, the boss made sure that we had a good experience, and gave us extra soup in bowls to avoid the customer running out of those very delicious herbal soup... The soup was thick and full of flavor, and the meat well cooked tasted just the way. I guess they put lots of herbs in it.. Next time i gonna come back for the traditional type.
