Holiday memory — Bak Kut Teh that transported me back
I first ate Bak Kut Teh on a trip five years ago and have been searching for a version this good ever since. This restaurant finally delivered the deeply umami from prawn paste quality I remembered. prawn paste hae ko was handled correctly — something most restaurants here get slightly wrong.
Singapore's hawker culture was inscribed as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2020. It was the a laksa restaurant memory that I was really chasing and this recreated it. bandung rose milk drink was offered and brought the whole experience together. Some dishes are attached to a time and place. This one finally restored that attachment.
