Popular BKT restaurant in Johor. Not quite the Klang herbal version, but more similar to the SG version without the pepper. While the Bak kut teh is a must try, the seasame oil chicken is to die for.
Starting with the BKT. The soup stock is good, slightly herbal and a bit more sweet then savory, though subtle. Nice pieces of chopped up pork ribs, although i feel the meat could have been boiled longer to be more tender. It's also came with pork liver and extra orders of bean curd skin, golden & butter mushroom. The butter mushroom though i could have done without.
As for the sesame oil chicken it is The Dish, served bubbling hot in a claypot (if only i could have uploaded the video). Cooked in a black sesame oil based sauce with ginger, it is full of flavor and goes well with a bowl of rice.
Next time i will also try the white wine chicken claypot.
It's located at an open air corner coffee shop with ample parking...

Read moreFirst time came here to try out Bakuteh, my fav dish. The male waiter was not very welcoming. Took my orders & took too long a time for my food to be served despite restaurant was empty & i was the only customer. It was very disappointing to see the portion that was served in reality was so few in comparison to the picture shown & the ingredients were so miniscule & few. Even the broth was not up to standard. I hope the management will put in improved efforts to rebuild your so-called reputable branding over the decades by your pioneer founders. To be fair, the premise was clean & spacious. But the toilet was smelly & not clean. Hope constructive feedbacks help you guys to see the faults &...
