Our take: Tai Seng Turtle Soup offers a traditional take on herbal turtle soup, with many reviewers highlighting its comforting and aromatic broth.
The $24 turtle soup is consistently praised for its tender meat and the generous soup top-ups offered by the friendly owner.
Beyond the signature, the prawn paste chicken is a standout, described as crispy, juicy, and packed with umami.
The claypot crocodile tail also receives commendation for its tender meat and unique jelly-like skin.
While the prawn paste chicken is generally well-received, one reviewer found a takeaway portion to be a bit bland, suggesting it might be best enjoyed fresh.
We think this spot is a good option for those looking to experience a traditional and ethically sourced turtle soup, especially given its long history and the owner's hospitality.
It's a reliable choice for a hearty, herbal meal.
