Then some one started using chicken meat and bones and call it Chic Kut Teh. This Chic Kut Teh however, does not seem to be as popular as Bak Kut Teh.
But Bak Kut Teh is not everybody's meal, due obviously to the fatty meat portion. Now someone has come up with a healthier alternative, and you can find it here. Food served here is halal - according to the owner.

The name of the restaurant Bao Yang says it all. It uses the Boer (a mountain goat) meat and bones to be the main ingredient, aside from the carefully selected Chinese herbs, and long hours of broiling, and stewing to perfection.
According to the restaurant owner, the Boer meat has much less cholesterol than pork, beef, chicken or lamb. So he says it's a healthier meal. Look at the posters below.

Because your heart must go on drumming
Enough varieties to whet your appetite
I visited the place with a friend from JB just a couple of days after it was opened. I really like the cool weather, the surrounding atmosphere, and the ambiance. The place is well designed, plenty of parking spaces and very clean and tidy. Most importantly, the food was good.
There is a lot of effort and attention given to detailing. It's not surprising, as the whole structure is the brain child of one of the owners - an engineer. I particularly like the solid wood columns and the timber furniture of the dining annex. Sitting here with the cool breeze, one can sip tea for hours. One can also have very good views of Genting Highland's major attractions: viz the Hotels and Casino, The Chinese Temple, and Awana Hotel, all aligned in One Straight Line.
