Hearty braised pork knuckle, herbal bak kut teh, and kway chap from a warm elderly couple at Alexandra Village.
慶祥記 (Qing Xiang Ji) is a well-loved hawker stall at Alexandra Village Food Centre, #01-74, specialising in three quintessential Singapore comfort dishes: braised pork knuckle, bak kut teh, and kway chap. Run by a friendly elderly couple, the stall has built a loyal following for its fragrant, fall-off-the-bone braised pork knuckle that carries no unpleasant porky odour, alongside a herbal-sweet bak kut teh soup that is flavourful without being overwhelming.The bak kut teh comes in portions from about S$7 to S$10, with generous cuts of ribs, intestines, and vegetables swimming in a broth that balances herbal depth with a gentle sweetness. The kway chap is equally noteworthy—silky flat rice noodles drenched in a light yet savoury braising liquid, paired with tender offal, braised pork belly, and big intestines that reviewers praise for their cleanliness and generous portions. The stall is open 7.30am to 7.30pm, closed Tuesdays.
For a comforting bowl of bak kut teh or a satisfying plate of kway chap in the Bukit Merah area, 慶祥記 is hard to beat. Explore MakanSouth for more hawker stalls, local food guides, and the best of southern Singapore's dining scene.

Soup base was thick and tinge of sweetness. Was to my liking of Bak ku teh. Stall owner is a very nice uncle who share with us how he cook the bak ku teh and pig trotters. A very nice person !!

Kway chap was value for money at $4.50. Taste was OK. However, some of the intestines had a hint of sourness, maybe because it was already too late at close to 8pm. Sellers were friendly. E-payment was available.

Happened to pass by and the store owner called out to me to check out what I wanted. I was contemplating if I wanted to get Bak Kut Teh but after his introduction, I decided to give it a try and bought the briased pork knuckle. The owner had shift to this place from other premises due to rising rental. Anyway, not sure how authentic the background is, the pork knuckle is really fragrant. No porky smell. The skin melts in the mouth literally and the meat is savoury and soft. Can try. Next time, may try his other dishes.
