We always have our dinner in Bai Jia whenever we are in Mt Austin. The teochew style food suits our taste buds. Highly recommend fried salted fish skin, minced pork toufu and pig stomach soup.

Hidden gem within Mount Austin area. The coconut chicken soup is nourishing, the crispy spring chicken is a must order- crispy skin and surprisingly tender meat. Cereal prawn is just on point and addictive! Clean and bright dining space, attentive service. Will come back again!

We ordered four dishes for three adults and two children. Overall, the taste was very good. We especially enjoyed the 南乳 fried pork — it was soft, flavorful, and very well done. The coconut chicken soup was another highlight; sweet, tasty, and you can really taste the natural coconut water, which made it quite unique.
