老舗バクテー店 － Ng Ah Sio

シンガポール出身で西オーストラリアのパースとシンガポールの両方を拠点に活躍する実業家の友人に、バクテーの老舗名門店へ案内してもらった。バクテー（肉骨茶）は大きく切られた豚肉を漢方薬風スパイスと醤油で煮込んだ料理（参照：ウィキピディア）で、チキン・ライスと同じぐらい人気のシンガポールの定番料理だ。

A good friend of mine, a Singaporean businessman who has two home bases - Perth (Western Australia) and Singapore, took me to Singapore’s old-fashion favourite, Ng Ah Sio on Ragoon road. I was introduced to a traditional Singaporean meal – Bak kut teh.  Bak Kut Teh is a pork based herbal soup and it is accompanied by a bowl of white rice and strong Chinese tea. The original of Bak Kut Tek is believed to come from the early days of Singapore to help labours regain energy from a nourishing meal. 

Ng Ah Sio のRagoon Road店は特に人気で、早い時間に到着してにもかかわらず、すでに店内は満席。温かいスープとしっかり煮込まれた豚肉に白いご飯がぴったり。さすが「パワーアップ」が必要な時の料理、と納得。

Ng Ah Sio’s flagship store on Ragoon Road is particularly popular. We thought we went there before the peak time rush but the store was already full. White rice goes extremely well with pork ribs in a hot herbal soup. Agree, this is a power dish to give you more energy.
