1. Bak Kut Teh: Founder Bak Kut Teh

Premium Ribs ($11.80)

As one of the best Bak Kut Teh restaurants in Singapore, Founder Bak Kut Teh will never disappoint. The secret to their quality is their use of only the freshest meaty pork ribs, simmered in a specially formulated broth of herbs and spices. In fact, the broth is created using a recipe created by the founder, Mr Chua himself, and perfected over many years of serving the wonderfully peppery dish. Take your pick from their soup with Premium Ribs 长排骨 ($11.80), Premium Short Ribs 小排骨 ($10.80), or the Founder Popularity Bak Kut Teh 人气肉骨 ($7.80).
