Herbal mutton soup specialist at Old Airport Road Food Centre
Hougang Jing Jia Mutton Soup is a hawker stall at Old Airport Road Food Centre, specialising in herbal mutton soup that draws on traditional Chinese medicinal principles. The stall has earned a reputation for its robust, deeply flavoured broth, which balances the richness of mutton with the restorative properties of Chinese herbs. It is a dish that warms from within, making it especially popular during rainy days and cooler months.|||The mutton soup features tender pieces of mutton simmered low and slow in a dark, herb-laden broth. The herbal infusion is pronounced without being overpowering, lending a complex, aromatic depth that complements the meat's natural gaminess. Each bowl comes with generous portions of mutton, and the broth can be seasoned with white pepper and chopped spring onions to taste.|||Located in one of Singapore's most renowned food centres, Hougang Jing Jia draws diners from across the island who seek out its distinctive herbal mutton soup. The stall represents a niche but cherished segment of Singapore hawker cuisine—one that champions the restorative, home-style cooking traditions brought by earlier generations of Chinese immigrants.

Paid $10 for the mixed soup to try.. only cut 1.25 of the ribs.. so stingy. Even worse, took 4 spoons as there are 4 of us to try yet he complained why we took so many. Can only cut 1.25 ribs for a $10 portion and complain about 4 spoons??? Give less meat and still complain about taking more spoons.. skin as thick as the sheep, if not thicker.

Bought the largest size, a $10 mixed bowl and got 70% bone and no meatballs. Soup was rather bland. I used to eat this now and again (I live opposite) though I haven't had this for a few months now. Had to wait 15 mins in queue too. Add …

The soup is very bland, like drinking hot water. But meatball is nice. Mutton isn't very tender.

First time trying this mutton soup. Ordered rib and tendon for $12 without rice. Looks big but that's because the tendon came with big bones so they occupied lots of space. Overall I'd say it's good, not very good, as the soup is quite …

13 Sep 2022, late lunch here at 2.40pm. Generous portion of boneless ribs and tendon for $10. Not much herbal taste in the broth, which would have elevated the dish, and sadly, there was not much …
