I've finally found a place that serves Cantonese style herbal bak kut teh. Teochew and the Hokkien bak kut teh are popular and well acknowledged with the locals but I am not sure if even the local people have an exact idea of what Cantonese style bak kut teh is. Although, I myself is frankly dubious that having just one bowl of Cantonese style bak kut teh equals "I know what it is all about." Anyways, it was a lot of searching over the internet to find this place at Telok Blangah Dr. Food Centre. 秀姐砂煲肉骨茶・Xiu Jie Claypot Bak Kut Teh. The soup comes in claypot and as you can see, there are wolf berries floating (and also angelica sinensis). The soup is not as dark as Hokkien like Morning BKT Hong Lim Complex but darker than the Teochew type like Rong Chen or Joo Siah but equally dark as Ng Ah Sio or Song Fa. Flavor-wise like defined, it is quite herbal and not garlicky or peppery at all. Not as sweet and robust as the Hokkien one but equally herbal -pronounced angelica sinensis root aroma (当帰). Very soothing actually, and subtle.

小柴シェフさま 初めまして。 今日、六本木の方に予約しようと思ってHPをみて大好きなバクテーの記事に目がとまりました。 転載禁止に気付く前に自分のFBにシェアしてしまいました(-_-メ) もし不都合のようなら恐れ入りますがお知らせくださいませ。 六本木店はオープン当初から主人と通っておりまして、中西さんには「Limです」と言えばおわかりになると思うのですが。。。今日は予約これからとれるかなー、無理かなー、Anyway もう口がシンガポールフードの味になってきました。 行けるといいなぁ。。。
