The Pumpkin Rice was addictively yummy. Although it simply contained bits of pumpkin and dried shrimp, it was already good to eat by itself— that is proof that meals can style unimaginable even with easy elements.

The Ten Tonic Chicken Soup (S$6) was a check of their consistency since I attempted it 2 weeks in the past. I remembered being blown away after I drank it for the very first time. Would I be disenchanted?

The soup contained an enormous hen drumstick. Despite the meat’s thickness, I may nonetheless chew on it with ease. The natural flavours of the soup had additionally penetrated the meat nicely. Simply scrumptious!

As I scooped the soup’s contents up, I discovered bits of dang shen, purple dates and goji berries inside. The soup itself was thick and flavourful, virtually tasting like a scrumptious bowl of natural bak kut teh. It seems to be like they’ve managed to keep up their normal.

I’ve additionally tried their different soups just like the Gingko Pork Tripe Pepper Soup (S$5.50) and Lotus Root Pork Ribs Soup (S$5) they usually had been each superior as nicely.

After having slightly chat with the stall keepers, I discovered that Heng Heng Herbal Soup really has 3 different retailers in Singapore. Why did I uncover them so late? Oh nicely, higher late than by no means I assume.
