New Eastern Kim Tee Has Deep-Fried Intestines And Handmade Bak Kwa At Old Airport

New Eastern Kim Tee has deep-fried intestines at Old Airport Road Food Centre

Old Airport Road Food Centre has long been established as a treasure trove for good food, but even within such a known entity, there are a number of underrated picks. One of these is New Eastern Kim Tee, a stall that, while chiefly known for its heritage bak kwa, also serves up amazing deep-fried pig intestines.

Each plate of Fried Big Intestine ($7.50) is made fresh to order, and undergoes a thorough process to achieve its flavour. Like any other dish made from pig intestines, proper cleaning is essential prior to boiling. Once cleaned, the intestines are boiled, marinated, and subsequently deep-fried until they are delightfully crispy.

Each piece is said to have a crispy outer layer and soft, juicy insides that aren’t overly gamey. Dip these fragrant pieces of intestine into either the piquant chilli sauce or the sweet sauce—or both, if you like your food extra flavourful.

Don’t miss out on their Fried Prawn Roll ($3.50), AKA ngoh hiang. Like the pork intestines, it is said to be fried to crispy perfection, and is packed with tasty, well-marinated meat.

You can also get some of New Eastern Kim Tee’s bak kwa here. Kim Tee remains committed to its traditional, handmade recipe, even though it involves a time-consuming procedure that spans up to three days.
