'Bak Kut Teh' Going Halal...!!??

"Bak Kut Teh is a Chinese soup. The name literally translates as "meat bone tea", and, at its simplest, consists of meaty pork ribs simmered in a complex broth of herbs and spices (including star anise, cinnamon, cloves, dang gui, fennel seeds and garlic) for hours."

You can savoured it at the "Fabulous Food 1Malaysia" event at the Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC) from December 18 to 20, 2009. The different between halal and non-halal Bak Kut Teh is the use of chicken instead of pig in the soup. Even though the ingredient has changed, the organizer refuse to change the use of Bak Kut Teh name for the dish.

I've asked my officemate about it and he said, "no, Bak Kut Teh taste more better than other custom soup such as what they going to make it at the event [chik ko teh]. 'Chik' referred to chicken."

Imagine, you eat nasi lemak with Bak Kut Teh... Yum.. Yum...!!
