Hing Kee Bakuteh Main Branch 甲洞大街 兴记肉骨茶 总行

Was told this restaurant serves better bak kut teh than Klang style bak kut teh by a local and it surely did not disappoint especially the soup version. The dry version didn't have the same kick. Nonetheless overall still a 5/5 bak kut teh. The restaurant was packed with locals, there's also a famous Hokkien Mee shop next door.

When it comes to bak kut teh, one would normally think of Klang. However in Kepong we have a Michelin class bak kut teh called Hing Kee bak kut teh. The bak kut teh here is Yummylicious shockalingam slurpylicious and worth the trip. Do try the soup and dry type to savour the full unadulterated taste of bak kut teh in a different style.

By far the best Bak Ku Teh I ever eat in Malaysia. Both soup and dry was equally good 👍🏻. The ginger wine prawns was amazing, the broth was very strong and delicious too. Their shallot oil rice was surprising unique and delicious too. Must order 2 bowl next time 🤣🤣. Best warm comfort food. Sure to eat again when travel here again.

Hing Kee Bakuteh – Michelin Guide 2023, 2024, 2025 Michelin-rated Bakuteh. Enough said! Hing Kee has two shops along Jalan Kepong, but this particular branch is the better choice — easier to find parking and it spans across six shoplots, giving it a more spacious feel. We arrived around 11:30am and the restaurant was still relatively quiet. Ordered a mix to try: soup BKT, dry BKT, rice wine prawns, tofu pok, yau char gwai, plain rice, and shallot oil rice. Soup Bakuteh – The broth is clear and light, savoury with a subtle sweetness and a mild touch of Chinese herbs. We ordered pork belly with intestines. The meat was fresh, nothing spectacular — but the intestines? OMG. Clean, tender, and bursting with flavour. 👉 RM22 (meat) + RM4 (beancurd skin) + RM4 (enoki mushroom) Dry Bakuteh – Sadly, this didn’t live up to expectations. Very average and forgettable. RM22. Rice Wine Prawns – This was the highlight of the meal for me. I absolutely loved the strong rice wine aroma, paired with generous slices of ginger that carried a slight sweetness. The prawns were fresh, and there were subtle hints of egg in the broth that gave it a nice texture and depth. It’s warm, comforting, and packed with flavour — a dish I’d gladly return just for. I truly adore this dish. RM28.00 Tofu Pok – Soaked in soup, I absolutely loved this. Dip it in garlic, chili, soy, and thick dark sauce — bliss. RM5. Yau Char Gwai – A must-have for soup dipping. RM3. Rice – The plain rice is good quality, no cheap grains. Shallot oil rice is aromatic. RM2 & RM3 respectively. The place is without AC, but it’s clean and airy. Loved how they neatly arranged their utensils. Seating is comfortable and not cramped. Service was fast and efficient. Parking is surprisingly easy, since most cars are here for one thing — Bakuteh! I’ll travel for the rice wine dish! Skip the dry Bakuteh and order rice wine instead. Thank me later.

Return to restaurants after visit next shop past few weeks as it surprise me with michelin star and 5 shops in a row , super crowded during dinner time. as klang bah kut teh lover , i must try how is this kepong bkt good at. The claypot soup bkt is super clear and “clean” type which not mix with left over herbal and meat fat , etc , it looks purely clear plain but surprisingly rich with flavor , non heavy type bkt but consider good for me. the meat served with 3 layer pork but actually we order belly , surprisingly it is good also , medium soft type . Ngam me , the soup bkt do not come with fu zok or tao poh unless top up . Tried also dry type bkt , it taste ok , not bad . Overall satisfying the food and service

I personally liked the pig kidney in Chinese wine with lots of julienned spicy ginger. Other items like: Bkt with assorted parts (tail, ribs and pork belly) is slightly herbal but not umami enough, Pig stomach soup is really peppery (but not umami enough), Tau Pok is nice, Spicy sour vegetables is nice Abit out of the way and parking is chaotic.

Bak Kut Teh broth is not the super thick style but flavourful enough. Portion can be a bit small though. The braised meat was really good, a must order. Dried Bak Kut teh at spicier side so take note if you are not good in spicy food. Parking wasn't easy, might need a bit of time to secure one lot

The Bak Kut Teh comes with clear soup and very tasty. The meat are well cook, tender and soft. We tried the "dry" version of BKT. It has a overwhelming aroma and delicious, too. Got to come early to avoid long queue.
