About

Founder Bak Kut Teh, located at 347 Balestier Road, is a renowned Singaporean eatery with a rich history stretching back over four decades. Established by a former pig farmer, the restaurant is celebrated for its authentic Teochew-style Bak Kut Teh, a peppery pork rib soup. The founder's background in pig farming instilled a commitment to using only the freshest and meatiest pork ribs, which are simmered in a specially formulated broth of herbs and spices. This dedication to quality ingredients results in a robust and aromatic soup that has become a favorite among both locals and international visitors. The ambiance of the Balestier outlet is characterized by its "Wall of Fame," a distinctive feature where the walls are adorned with a multitude of photographs of celebrity patrons who have dined there over the years. This visual testament to its popularity adds to the bustling and welcoming atmosphere of the establishment. Beyond its signature Bak Kut Teh, the menu also includes a variety of other traditional dishes such as Braised Pig Trotters and a selection of side dishes that complement the main offering. The restaurant provides a quintessential Singaporean dining experience, centered around a classic and well-loved dish.
