Hua Xing Bak Kut Teh & Steamed Fish review - BKT Lunch at Yuhua Market Hawker Centre, Jurong East Singapore with pictures of food and stall
A hidden hawker gem in Jurong with a multi-generation following for their peppery bak kut teh, Teochew steam fish and asam fish enjoyed with Nanyang tea.
The bak kut teh was very peppery and porky, but didn’t seem to have any additional layers of fragrance. The mui cai was not bad, but couldn’t save the soup. I think this had been featured variously due to their old-school taste, which I didn’t appreciate.
You should definitely visit Hwa Xing Bak Kut Teh if you love peppery bak kut teh. It is a gem that still honours the old school way of serving bak kut teh with a pot of tea.
I hope you can see that the story of bak kut teh is just one of the many interesting snippets of our rich hawker culture!
