Our take: Founder Bak Kut Teh in Novena is a long-standing establishment known for its peppery bak kut teh.
Diners consistently highlight the tender pork ribs, with the 龙骨 (dragon bones) and braised pork ribs receiving particular praise for their texture and flavour.
While the peppery kick is a signature, some feedback suggests the soup can be on the saltier side, and the meat-to-bone ratio for the Premium Loin Ribs ($12.80) might not always meet expectations.
However, the braised dishes, like the braised soft pork ribs ($9.90), are frequently recommended as a standout.
We think it's a solid choice for those craving a robust, peppery bak kut teh experience, especially if you appreciate a strong flavour profile.
Best for a satisfying, traditional meal, particularly for late-night cravings.
