We share an excellent Peking duck meal with a popular food blogger in Singapore.

Back when we were planning to come to Singapore, I reached out to a few Singaporean food bloggers that I wanted to meet in person. Unfortunately, they were going to be out of town that weekend that we were coming. I commented about this to our friend Mike, who told us to contact LK, the blogger behind the popular blog Food For Tots. LK happened to be a Malaysian from Penang, living in Singapore.

Hot Sour Gai Choy Soup with Roasted Pig's Feet and Duck Heads

Man, what a mouthful that title is! The reason it is such a mouthful is that I always thought this dish was called "Kiam Chye Boey" but found out from my mom that it is not. "Kiam Chye Boey" is a dish that uses "kiam chye" – salted mustard greens (gai choy). This dish, on the other hand, only uses fresh gai choy.

Now, I know that pig’s feet and duck’s head doesn’t sound very appealing as good eats. But let me tell you, this dish is simply delicious! If you like Chinese Hot Sour Soup, this is a gazillion times better! And it’s so easy to make once you procure yourself the right ingredients.
