Braved the heat for my favourite soups!

Founded in 1946, @tansersengherbs is one of the few remaining turtle soup restaurants in Singapore.

First introduced in 1986 was Singapore’s first 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐩𝐨𝐭 𝐓𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐩. Rich and hearty, this bowl of superior soup was simmered for hours with over 20 quality herbs and ingredients, and it’s packed full of collagen and health benefits. The turtle meat tastes alike to a succulent and tender piece of pork. The jelly pieces were smooth, firm and springy. This is a uniquely tasty dish that’s not as exotic as one imagined. Note: @tansersengherbs do not use endangered or wild turtles. All their turtles are farmed specifically for consumption.

Apart from their signature Claypot Turtle Soup, @tansersengherbs also offer herbal soups such as the 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐲𝐜𝐞𝐩𝐬 𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐧 and 𝐆𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐠 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐧. Each pot of Gingseng Black Chicken Soup is stewed over night with one whole ginseng, to give a fragrant and rich flavour. As cordyceps are introduced to their chicken’s diet, there is no surprises that the chicken meat is super tender and the chicken skin contains less oil.

To complete your meal, order a bowl of their specialty 𝐘𝐚𝐦 𝐑𝐢𝐜𝐞 that compliments the herbal soups, along with sides such as 𝐕𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐚𝐮𝐜𝐞, 𝐇𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐧 𝐑𝐨𝐥𝐥, 𝐉𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐓𝐨𝐟𝐮 and 𝐀𝐠𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐑𝐚𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐎𝐦𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞.

Personally, I feel that there are not many restaurants in Singapore that offer soups so flavorful and nutritious, much less delicious turtle soup and tasty sides and rice to go along with it. @tansersengherbs is definitely worth the trip down to try!
