Like kway chap, pig’s organ soup is a dish you either love or can’t bear. If you’re in the former camp, we highly recommend you check out Koh Brother Pig’s Organ Soup, the only stall of its kind to have a place on the Michelin Bib Gourmand list.
As its name suggests, the heritage stall is run by the Koh family. Its roots stem back to 1955, when the stall was a pushcart outfit in Tiong Bahru, before occupying its current premises in Tiong Bahru Market and Food Centre.

They’re now in their third generation, and they’re famed for serving up Teochew-style pig’s organ soup. The stall sports consistently long queues during peak hours, and they tend to sell out before closing.
The broth here is clear but peppery and power-packed with flavour. Made fresh daily, the stock is prepared from slow-cooking pig’s bones and offal alongside preserved vegetables. If you’re someone who gets put off by the “stink” of offal dishes, you won’t find this here, as the stall goes the extra mile to ensure that their cuts are clean and scrubbed thoroughly before cooking.

A bowl is priced at either $4.50 or $5.80. You can have it with a bowl of rice for an additional $0.50. Each serving comes with chopped pieces of organs, ranging from liver to intestines. They also have handmade pork balls, as well as slices of pork poached in the broth.

While they’ve had a longstanding presence in Tiong Bahru, the stall recently announced an expansion to the east. Their new stall is located in Tampines Street 81, and is run by a third-gen family member.
A bowl here costs $4.80, while a large serving is priced at $6.80. Aside from the pig’s organ soup, you can also get braised innards here, from small intestines ($5), big intestines ($6), and pig’s trotter ($6). Note that the Bib Gourmand title only applies to the Tiong Bahru outlet.
