En Yeoh's Bak Kut Teh (宴杨肉骨茶) @ VivoCity - Klang Style Bak Kut Teh with 30 Years of Expertise

Klang-style Bak Kut Teh lovers can now enjoy a taste of Malaysia's beloved herbal pork bone soup right here in Singapore at En Yeoh's Bak Kut Teh (宴杨肉骨茶) at VivoCity. This new dining spot is a collaboration between EN Group and Yeoh's Bak Kut Teh, a well-established name with over 30 years of expertise crafting the perfect herbal broth.

Signature 4 Types Assorted Claypot Bak Kut Teh 4.2/5

For a traditional take on Klang-style Bak Kut Teh, I opted for the Signature 4 Types Assorted Claypot Bak Kut Teh ($10.90/$18.90). The rich, slow-simmered herbal broth is made with over 15 premium herbs and ingredients, striking a well-balanced and subtly fragrant profile without an overly strong medicinal finish.

The claypot comes generously packed with pork trotter, pork ribs, pork belly, Hokkaido pork collar, shiitake mushrooms, button mushrooms, tofu puffs, and fried beancurd. Each cut of pork was tender and well-infused with the broth, making every bite satisfying. The variety of textures from the pork, mushrooms, and tofu puffs added depth to the dish. I particularly liked that the broth was not too overpowering or tangy, making it enjoyable for those who prefer a more balanced, less intense herbal flavour.

Soumen 3.5/5

Instead of the usual steamed white rice, I decided to try the Soumen ($3.20) as an alternative carb pairing. While the silky soft noodles were smooth and pleasant to slurp, I found the portion quite small for the price. Given its light texture, it didn't quite absorb the broth as well as rice would have, making it a less satisfying pairing compared to the usual rice option.

Claypot Dry Pork Belly 4.5/5

One of the standout dishes of the meal was the Claypot Dry Pork Belly ($12.90). Unlike the soupy version, this dish features thick-cut, chunky pork belly pieces coated in a sweet, savoury, and slightly spicy sauce.

The claypot also includes ladyfinger, sliced cuttlefish, dried chilli, and green chilli, which add layers of spice, umami, and fragrance. I particularly liked the addition of cuttlefish, which contributed a subtle seafood aroma and extra umami punch, making the dish even more enjoyable. The pork belly was fatty yet meaty, offering a satisfying chew that complemented the flavourful glaze.

En Yeoh’s Bak Kut Teh is a solid choice for those craving authentic Klang-style Bak Kut Teh in Singapore. The herbal broth is well-executed, striking a balanced and comforting flavour profile without being overly strong or medicinal. While the Soumen may not be the best choice for pairing, the Claypot Dry Pork Belly is a must-try for its bold flavours and satisfying textures. If you're looking for a heartwarming and authentic Bak Kut Teh experience, En Yeoh’s Bak Kut Teh at VivoCity is definitely worth a visit.
