Tracing the Roots of Flavour

The Origin of Bak Kut Teh

In the early days, large numbers of young men migrated from China to work as coolies at the godowns by the historic Singapore River. As their jobs involved much physical hardship and their meagre salaries could ill-afford the luxury of meat, they used pork bones to brew their soups as a form of nourishment.

Where the Legend Began

The Taste of Heritage

Mr Ng Siak Hai’s (nickname: Ng Ah Sio) father – Mr Ng Mui Song, began serving aromatic Bak Kut Teh cooked in a distinct style in 1955 at the foot of government hill present-day Clarke Quay along River Valley.
