Bak Kut Teh, or pork rib soup is a traditional Chinese dish in Singapore and Malaysia. This dish consists of pork ribs stewed with a mixture of herbs and spices. It is typically eaten with steamed white rice and dough fritters. The dipping sauce would be the dark soy sauce added with minced garlic and sliced chili. We normally prefer Chinese tea as our beverage as it helps us to eliminate the oil and fat from our body.

Kiang Kee Bak Kut Teh is the famous Bak Kut Teh shop that is located at Kota Tinggi, Johor. We went there early in the morning as the Kiang Kee Bak Kut Teh would be sold out before noon. It has a leaf structure rooftop and gives customers a homely ambience. When we passed by the open kitchen, we can often see many pots of Bak Kut Teh being cooked on the charcoal fire.

When the Bak Kut Teh arrived at the table, we can smell the herbal aroma from the steaming hot bubbling pot. The pork ribs were tender and slightly firm. The soup is thicker compared to other Bak Kut Teh shops. We also ordered a pot of tofu puffs served with the Bak Kut Teh soup. We all were satisfied with the meal as it is difficult to taste the soup with that has this consistency.
